Christian Siriano, Richard chai
Hello my fashionistas, Fashion Week is finally here. Today (9/9/10) is the first day of the Spring/Summer 2011 fashion shows at Lincoln Center. And it's all abuzz as Miss Jay, Alan Cumming and many more celebrities flock to the white tents.
The first big show was Project Runway. Awesome! However, I will not spoil the surprise. You will have to stay tuned to the Lifetime network for the finalists and winner. After PR we headed to Richard Chai. This season his color pallete included shades of natural, tan and grey, with a touch of blue that was fresh. The collection had a men’s wear feeling with layered looks. Overall his collection was very light, sheer, and easy going. Our third viewing for the day was Christian Siriano. Delicious is a great word used to describe his collection. Oscars anyone! Great evening looks; very chic and bold. Bensoni is fairly new to fashion week. It was more intimate setting for viewing the cloths. They had very simple and wearable pieces. I love the play of color in dresses and skirts. Overall, very cute. Concept Korea was beautiful. Three designers showcase their collections. The 1st collection was inspired by fairy tail. It had a playful look of fantasy and high fashion mixed The second collection was men’s wear. The black and dark urban looks were very unusual for spring. However, the fabrics were light and silky. The final collection was presented slightly differently, because the models did not do the usually runway walk. Each model stopped at a certain point that added freshness to the show. Very cool, chic, and avant guard. I loved it! Richie Rich ended the day with drama and bedazzle. His looks were fun, girly, colorful, and street punk. Richie opened the show with ballet dancers parading around on the runway, and a sexy hot DJ. It’s very fitting, as IMG settles into the new venue. For spring 2011, White, bright pink and splashes of color, will be some of the season’s biggest trend, along with ruffles, ruffles, and more ruffles. On the other side of the spectrum, neutrals, black and grays will offer the consumer a more toned down look. The second half of the show was very entertaining with bare asses, hot bodies in swimsuits, club chic, bondage, and leather with studs; all gave an interesting contrast compared with the first half of the show. The show ended with silver glitz and a celebratory bang! Day one is over; tomorrow BCBGMAXAZRIA, Ports1961, Nicole Miller, and fashion Night Out.
