NYFW AW’14- Trend- Golden
One thing is for sure, Gold is going to be huge come Fall. It has been a steady climber during this round of NYFW, from DVF’s gold finale to Neem Khan’s show stopping power pieces. Its one of those tones that will work on anyone so have at it. Strategically.

NYFW AW’14- Milly, A Gradual Appreciation
I like it when a collection gradually grows from like to love when you see it coming down the runway and by the end of it you are so pleasantly surprised by how much you like it. That was Milly. I confess I’ve often just bypassed this collection as one of those but I’m glad…

NYFW AW’14- Madam Herrera- A Lesson In Simplicity
Each season there is not a lot I don’t like about Carolina Herrera’s collection and of late she has emerged head and shoulders above the rest. Its almost as if she resides in her tower looking down on the rest. Every season, without fail, especially in the past four or five seasons, she churns out…

NYFW AW’14- Monique Lhuillier’s Pretty Dark Things
Monique Lhuillier and prettiness are like two peas in a pod. Its her stock in trade, even when she claims to go dark, like her AW’14 show was slated to be, there was still a lot of pretty to be had. This collection was more romantic than dramatic. Divine were the silhouettes, less so were…

NYFW AW’14- Prabal Almost Out of His Element
From the very first moment I saw one of Prabal Gurung’s creations, one that episode of The City where he asked Olivia Palermo to wear that dress, I fell in love with him. He knows how to dress a woman but most importantlly he LOVES to dress a woman. Lives for it. Although in past…

NYFW AW’14- Jason Wu Comes Correct.
This is my first livestream of NYFW, I don’t know about you but it still doesn’t feel like its Fashion Week . Maybe its because there’s so much else going on right now what with the global shitty weather, Sochi, Mercury in retrograde etc. it feels like this has come a week too early. But…

NYFW SS14 Best In Show- Michael Kors
This round of New York Fashion Week has been pretty savvy, if a little disjointed without one overarching movement or theme on play, the variety worked for me; common sense with a dose of fun and functionality was mostly on display. My favourite shoe was Michael Kors. In fashion, especially during Fashion Week, rarely do…

NYFW Day 7. Technical Evolution and Sweet Colours.
Proenza Schouler. My only critic of this collection would be that it felt more Autumn than Spring- Summer especially with the outerwear, besides that this was up the usual distinguished standard that the boys have set and we have come to expect from them. Panelling, high waists, wide hems and a softened severe feel. Love…

NYFW Day 6 Pt 2. Great Masters of Sensuality and Fairytale, and the High Fashion Gypsy.
Be still my heart this is gonna blow your mind away… Dennis Basso. At the end of this show there was a standing ovation very much deserved because Dennis Basso delighted ALL with his collection. He went for older and younger crowd without leaving a stone unturned, he went over, under, above and beyond to…
