Friday marks the beginning of Fashion Week! I would much rather be parading around the tents than working on trivial last semester of college homework. But, alas, I am neither famous, nor rich, nor important enough to be invited. Maybe one day.
Until then, I will lurk the shows from home with the help of Style.com.

This year I am looking forward to collections from a select few.

1. Charlotte Ronson (Showing Saturday at 11am)

Her designs embody an effortless beauty. They flow and fit perfectly around a woman’s curves or lack there of. Simple, chic, feminine yet with a definite edge.

2. Nanette Lepore (Showing Wednesday at 11am)

Motivated by creativity, free will, and the liberated bohemian lifestyle. A fusion of romance and abstract art.

3. Peter Som (Showing Monday at 11am)

A truly unique aesthetic. Eclectic and sophisticated. Som utilizes his diverse cultural and architectural knowledge to create subtly dignified garments. Young femininity mixed with womanly elegance.

4. Thuy (Showing Sunday at 9pm)

Cleverly detailed perfection. A divine collaboration between femininity and masculinity. A tasteful palette of textiles and colors. Refined craftsmanship composing casual elegance.

Despite the four above being my top favorites at the moment, I will have a fabulous time checking out all the other designer’s collections throughout the week. However, this heat wave doesn’t exactly have me thrilled for Spring and another Summer around its corner. I need winter!

Hopefully this coming week’s work will translate easily into the mass markets. I look forward to new innovations and styles to keep a fresh look.
