Last week was fashion week and I am exhausted. New York Fashion Week has always been a lot of fun picking out dresses at the showrooms before the show, prettying-up for the shows and seeing friends in the tents. But it's always right when fashion week ends, that the exhaustion of show hopping hits.
As always, a long time favorite designer of mine has set the bar very high for this coming fall. This Fall 09 collection was inspired by imagery from Northern European fairy tales or more realistically - a young, girlish but sophisticated European traveler. The palette is deep hues of violet and pomegranate softened with natural girlish shades of beige and pink. Ultra feminine ruffle
d tops and playful dresses are softly embellished. Her ensembles are a mixed of the softest wool and cashmere with chiffon, velvet and taffeta. The jewel tones and flirty floral prints added a jolt of vibrancy to the collection that is sure to enliven any bleak Fall wardrobe. My favorite were her very sexy and hip fur jackets and her very Valentino mixed with Yves Saint Laurent ruffled blouses and dresses. I can't help but find myself say, "I can't wait till the Fall" (and I hate the Fall).Seated next to me were Tori Spelling, Alexie Gilmore, Mena Survari and my friends Ramona Singer and Anisha Lakhani.
After the show, I decided to skip the Ports show and headed to lunch and a massage with my sister till the after-party of Rebecca's which was hosted my Jamie-Lynn Sigler.
