Comments on "Fashion Week So Far.....anyone?"
Victoria Bartlett's collection was rather decent.
Quite impressive in some regards.
So far it's Yigal Azrouël and Josh Goot for me!
yigal azroul's collection is so breathtakingly simple and stunning.

Jenni Kayne was full of items I would actually wear.
-Jen
Yigal Azrouel definitely...! simple yet edgy...
Alexandre Herchcovitch was toned down, with loud prints in more or less prim cuts. The accessories, however, were another story, with models struggling to keep their bangles around their wrists and more than one name brand model almost falling from his cut-out heel shoes.
I like Yigal Azrouël's.
I third Yigal Azrouël! But Alexandre H is always nice as well.
yiga yiga yiga. i loved it too. i thought ruffian's was really fun and youthful also.
VPL!
i liked karen walker
jenni kayne and karen walker most definitely.
Ask me again after tomorrow...I can't wait for Marc Jacobs!
I too wanted to fill my days with Rag & Bone jeans and jackets. The woman with the headscarf could start a revolution, I think,
saw a new designer today - Gustavo Arango - pretty pretty dresses. also had styled show with really fabulous jewelry by a designer Coomi - nice to see a total look on the runway
Karen Walker tailors great pants - Josh Goot similarly well-cut (Narciso-esque), but I'd never be able to eat pasta with red sauce ever again...
Toni Maticevski always does amazing things - he and Olivier Theyskens should get together and go bowling.
Wait a minute - they're all from Australia or New Zealand. Okay, to be impartial: I loved the palette at Rag and Bone, and - to be completely unoriginal - Yigal Azrouel.
Karen Walker seems to have an oustanding collection so far.
Sabyasachi has blown everyone else at NY out of the water so far, it was breathtaking. The colors, the shapes, the styling, the everything!
Screw the collections... I'm obsessed with your coverage on style.com. The photographs are beautiful and your eye for style is perfectly in tune. Bravo! I cannot wait for more.
I thought Cia Maritima had a good first show at the tents.
I loved Verrier and VPL. The rest I am not so enamoured with—I'm waiting for Lanvin and Marni.
Ruffian made me smile.
Nothing. I have yet to see anything that has sparked any sort of interest and/or passion. It is all so BORING!!
btw, love your photos on style.com - I'm not sure if it is a good thing or a bad thing - people being dressed better and wearing more interesting clothing then the items being shown.
Not that I despise simplicity - which seems to be the direction that most designers are taking, but I would like to see a little creativity/ innovation. It seems like I have been looking at the same garmets for the past 3 seasons.
where on style.com can you see his photos??
sabyasachi is the most exciting show i've seen so far. exciting as in new/different ideas. his use of color and print is refreshing. can't remember who said this (somewhere on a blog, or in comments, somewhere), it seems like everyone is copying/riffing off of chloe, and as much as i love chloe, it's time to move on.
jenni kayne also - very sophisticated use of color, and well-cut. i also liked yigal azrouël (joining the chorus) (tho some of his stuff falls in the chloe-redux camp).
does anyone understand the ny times' love for alice roi? they have a video commentary/interview on her posted already - their first piece on ny fashion week - in which eric wilson fairly swoons over her stuff, much as cathy horyn did a few months earlier. i see what he's saying on a very philosophical level, but when it comes down to the clothes themselves, i don't find anything appealing about them.
Louis Diran's show yesterday was an eye-opener for me. I liked the way he seems to deconsruct from outside the traditional form.
The show had a nice buzz to it as well-- a good example of how this sort of thing can be exciting without being contrived.
sabyasachi for sure...
your coverage on Style is very fun.
beautiful photos.
loved VPL, H Fredriksson, Loden Dager and rag + bone!
So far I find your pictures more inspiring than any of the shows. All I can say is, I can't wait for Paris!!!
brian reyes was great with his neutral tones and monique Lhuillier was perfectly practical, she might not be innovative but will probably be very commerical and marketable.
VENA CAVA
there is an empire waist colorblocked cap-sleeve little silk number that is on my list. i am a sucker for silk and vena cava uses alot of that material. they feel great on.
Tierd of seeing the same stuff done in different ways. The highlight for me was the unique jewelry by Coomi. went and got myself a few pieces and get more comments and admiring looks than I have ever got with clothes.
you might have to look at 31 flavours lol
