Lacoste FW 2008 Collection-Runway Review Day 2
Day 2 at New York fashion Week kicked off with the famous French Sportswear house Lacoste, the setting was in the main tent at Bryant Park, models walked off on a runway of Fur (am sure PETA would scowl at this) the collection was very neat and colorful, with models walking off in groups at time, a little bit of a nightmare for photographers, the backdrop was a setting of falling snow. The collection itself seems to revive Lacoste back into the sportswear brand. Liked it alot
New York Fashion Week-Runway Review Day 1
Mercedes Benz fashion week kicked off instyle on Friday Feb 1st
We review the following collections from Day One
Nautica
The Nautica collection was nothing new but expected, this struggling sportswear brand has been trying to get it self backon the map, after Nautica we sprung to the main tent for the Hearts Truth Red Collection, it was a celebrity event and oh my Heidi Klum looked absolutely gorgeous on the runway in a red marc jacobs dress.
Skipped off to west 21st street for the Yigal Azrouel show which was very chic and that was when you know New York fashion week had officially kicked off, yes offsite shows, here i ran into Ken Downing from Neiman Marcus and Hamish Bowles from British Vogue, the Yigal Azrouel collection was very clean and i thought the hair looked very modern with a goth look to it.
On the way back to Bryant Park ran into the ever beautiful Elle Style Editor Kate Lanphear, boarded the bus and was chatting away with the great Marcio Madeira (if you don’t know him look up all the photo’s on style.com), talked mostly about photography, photo thieves and his company firstview,
At Bryant Park reviewed Erin Fetherston and her collection was very clean and hip in Erin Fetherston’s on way, the leggings looked very chic on the models especially on Chanel Iman.
