Must mention from NYFW

While the first half of the Proenza Schouler collection didn’t really convince me, the second half was magical. I can’t get enough of those shimmery pleated skirts with the crop tops and the boxy jumpers. Great silhouettes and beautiful color palette.Proenza Schouler SS14Louise Goldin’s spring/summer ’14 collection is just too cute. She takes the tennis player look from the court to the streets and I love it.

STREETFSN

There has been a lot of talk about the circus going on outside the fashion shows at fashion week. Suzy Menkes from T Magazine wrote a critical article about the peacocking attention seekers, the instagramming insiders, the photographing bloggers etc. (if you haven’t read Leandra Medine’s rebuttal to the article, read it now).

It is nuts how many photographers hang out outside of the fashion shows. Tim Blanks, reporter for Style.com, talks about how everyone these days tries to take part in the circus that is fashion and rightly asks what’s next? I’m curious to see..
