Kate Davidson Hudson in Oscar de la Renta
ELLE accessories director Kate Davidson Hudson wore a beautiful Oscar de la Renta dress to the Just Cavalli show in Milan. I always appreciate it when Americans wear our own designers here to the European shows, because American designers are often woefully underrepresented in high-end shops in Paris and Milan, where French and Italian designers dominate. Gotta represent!
Black Lace Dolce & Gabbana Dress, Outside the Show
One of several sheer black lace dresses outside the Dolce & Gabbana show. While the transparency is probably one of the main things that would catch an American’s eye, the whole concept is a subversion of traditional widow’s garb and therefore much more controversial in Italy.
Models Nastya Kusakina and Agata Rudko, After Emporio Armani
Two new models on the scene, Nastya Kusakina and Agata Rudko, posed for a photo after the Armani show.
Oksana On in Her Own Design, Outside Emporio Armani
Russian ingenue Oksana On has been designing her own line of dresses with very pretty results. Here she is twirling around in a red chiffon strapless dress of her own design outside the Emporio Armani show.
Kate Lanphear in Leopard Print, Outside Alberta Ferretti
We saw a lot of leopard prints this time last year, but like many things fashion, they have not died, they have been transformed into something else, morphing from saturated safari colors to muted shades of gray. Elle’s Kate Lanphear wore leopard print in black, gray and white outside yesterday’s Alberta Ferretti show. Her signature studded bracelets are Eddie Borgo.
Polka Dots on a Bicycle, Outside Alberta Ferretti
I think there is probably some fashion manual going around that says: if you want to attract attention from street style photographers, arrive on a bicycle. It works! Especially if you happen to be wearing head-to-toe polka dots like this stylish woman at the Alberta Ferretti show. And again… black and white.
Anya Ziourova in Balenciaga at Alberta Ferretti
Anya Ziourova wore a scarf-print Balenciaga top from the resort collection and Isabel Marant burgundy suede pants to yesterday’s Alberta Ferretti show. A beautiful, elegant but not-too-formal look for getting around Milan Fashion Week.
Black and White, Outside Gucci
Here’s more of my favorite transitional look of black and white, outside the Gucci show at Milan Fashion Week. Love the leather-paneled skirt.
Jeneil Williams in Alexander Wang
Model Jeneil Williams wore an Alexander Wang top and skirt outside Milk Studios during fashion week. This is the new silhouette for skirts this fall – and they’re very flattering, even on non-models!
Lauren Remington Platt in Zac Posen
Loved this combination of moss green and bright red on Lauren Remington Platt, who wore Zac Posen to the designer’s show during New York Fashion Week. The jacket and above-the-knee skirt length are a great example of how versatile eveningwear has become now.
And that necklace…. to die for.
Beaded Jacket, Outside Theyskens’ Theory
One of the best things about seeing all this fashion up close at New York Fashion Week is seeing the detail on exquisite clothing, like the beading on this jacket outside Theyskens’ Theory.
Leandra Medine Photobombing Taylor Tomasi Hill, Outside Peter Som
This was a funny moment outside the shows. Both street style stars attracted a lot of attention from photographers, and Leandra Medine of the Man Repeller jokingly photo-bombed Taylor Tomasi Hill. Great outfits on both of them!
Kelly Framel in Black and White, Outside BCBG
The Glamourai‘s Kelly Framel wore great black and white star spangled pants and a black and white blouse to the BCBG show. Black and white is perfect for transitional times like the present as summer shifts into fall.
Mixing Prints, Outside the Victoria Beckham Show
Print mixing is a trend that’s still going strong, though it’s best to do it as adeptly as this girl outside the Victoria Beckham show who mixed printed pants with a print DVF jacket. The shoes are Manolos.
Natalie Joos at Reed Krakoff
Natalie Joos traveled by bike to yesterday’s Reed Krakoff show, taking a cue from Catherine Baba. And I have no idea what brands she’s wearing – I just think she’s super cute!
