Darlings, come gawk at celebrities with us. Courtney Love at Alexander Wang Spring 2012 Show That’s actually a pretty sharp look. It doesn’t fit her correctly and we can’t imagine wearing leather gloves in this weather, but the girl brought it as best she can. Lea Michele at...

What an experience the Nicole Miller show was. Not only did we get to sit in the front row, thanks to a concerted effort to support fashion bloggers, but we got to go backstage and meet Nicole herself and tell her what we think. And what did we think? We were blown away. When you think of...

Opening the doors of the venue to provide the quintessentially New York backdrop of a yellow cab bearing a DKNY logo and closing the show with “American Woman” playing, the DKNY show, held on the afternoon of September 11th, was equal parts NYC defiance and patriotism. “We...

Can we just say, as very tired fashion bloggers in the middle of Fashion Week, THANK YOU to Nautica for the presentation of their Spring 2012 collection on the rooftop deck of the Empire Hotel? Because not only did we enjoy the presentation in a way we simply don’t when watching ladies...

Aside from looking at beautiful clothes, Fashion Week is all about celebrity-gawking. Of course, we’re such fashion nerds that we tend to be more excited when we see a fashion editor we like. But still, it’s always a surreal moment to look up from your phone in mid-tweet and see...

We always liked Vivienne Tam’s work; impeccable clothes with elegant detailing and thoughtful inspirations. But it wasn’t until last season, when we finally got to attend one of her shows, that we were utterly blown away by it. It photographs well, but in person, all the fine...

The very first show of our Fashion Week, the DKNY Mens collection, couldn’t have been a better way to kick things off: cute boys in covetable clothes, all lined up on the second floor of the NASDAQ Marketsite Building, with Times Square bustling below and behind them. The setting...

We honestly had no idea what to expect for the Porter Grey presentation. We weren’t very familiar with the label, formed by sisters Kristen and Alexandra O’Neill, but once we got the press release, we were immediately intrigued: “Designers Kristen and Alexandra...

Today’s end-of-the-day pretty is very simple: cute boys in little shorts and bright clothes, a.k.a., the DSquared2 resort collection for men. J’adore. We love all the sporty, colorful mixing and matching going on. Lorenzo’s in hue heaven right now and keeps pawing at his...

We look at the 2 gals modeling this collection and it feels like we’re watching two young ladies who just discovered the ’80s section of a particularly well-stocked vintage clothing store. It’s not literal ’80s (thank god), but with the bright colors and patterns,...

You always know what you’re going to get with Elie Saab; an uncomplicated amalgam of fairy tale princess and movie star. It’s no surprise that his work dominates the red carpets of movie premieres and awards shows. You won’t see any outrageous shapes or materials here;...

We are WAY behind on the couture collections lately. Expect an info dump of fabulousness in the next couple of days. First up, Giorgio Armani, who presented a couture collection that he called an homage to Japan, which seems to us to be the reverse of a collection that takes inspiration from...

With John Galliano relegated to the sidelines on account of being an asshat, the designing duties for the Dior couture collection  fell to his former assistant, Bill Gaytten. The debut was not exactly a triumph. In fact, it was roundly panned, and rightly so. Gaytten defined his inspirations...

It’s time to weigh in on yet another pressing fashion issue, you guys. Namely, mantoes: should the world be shielded from exposure to these highly contentious body parts or not? Consider: Versace Of course, this also opens up the floor to discussing the socks question as well....

Designer Christopher Bailey says he wants to “celebrate the idea of craftsmanship” with this collection, which is loaded with rich sumptuous colors in tribal patterns and ikat prints, with beaded collars and crocheted trim, giving the whole endeavor a multi-cultural, heavily...

Well isn’t this fun. For this collection, Versace took a look back at the good old days of Miami Vice and the house’s ever-present Greek key motif and baroque prints. But it’s not literal enough to be a strict redux attempt; this is more like Miami Vice by way of Jersey...

Canadian twins Dean and Dan Caten, the dynamic designing duo behind Dsquared2, describe their spring 2012 menswear collection as “Sartorial-minded sportswear for guys who aren’t afraid of color” and describe each outfit in terms of what port of call this well-traveled,...

Domenico and Stefano took one look around them at the candy-colored menswear dominating the season and loudly declared “NO.” Eschewing the bright colors that everyone else seems to be embracing, they offered up a collection of crisp, masculine looks rendered in very muted tones of burgundy,...

The closing word for today is MEN, darlings. And it’s a word that Dirk Bikkembergs clearly loves. Like all of his collections, this one offers a bright, sexy, cartoonish version of masculinity; skin tight (and skin-baring) clothes in either stark blacks and whites or brilliant...

Put on some polka dots and dance in your Cha Cha heels, darlings! Prabal Gurung, who recently won the Swarovski Award for Womenswear at the CFDA Awards, is another designer who seems to have shaken off the apparent shackles of the fall and spring seasons, taken off his shoes, and wiggled his...

Being the BFF of a world class designer has its privileges. If you’re Sofia Coppola and that designer is Marc Jacobs, it means you get to collaborate on a collection. But it wasn’t Marc the indie film princess worked with; it was Louis Vuitton design director Julie De Libran and...
