New York Fashion Week. The first of four fashion weeks alll over the world. Usually, these are the big name american designers, that everybody goes for. Ok, so these are a few of my favorite designers and what I think of them. Enjoy the post!






If you are a regular reader, you'll know that I did a post on Marchesa a few weeks ago. Well, for this season, they did not disapoint. As always, their dresses are elegant and have a touch of whimsy. My favorite piece would probably be the black and gold shift dress at the bottom.

Vera Wang:






Of course, Vera Wang is beautiful. She makes the most glamorous floaty dresses that anyone would just die to wear. I love all the shiny grey fabrics that she used to give a nice sporty punch to everything. I thought some pieces of the collection were really weird, but overall, I liked the collection.

Thakoon:






I have to say I was a little disapointed by Mr. Thakoon. I thought that the models looked weird. I hate their hair. It looked like they just rolled outof bed. I really liked the green and blue patterned dress, and that was probably it. I really liked his spring collection from a year ago, that was awesome. I think he kind of missed the mark for spring 08 though, so I eagerly await his fall collection.

DOO.RI:






This collection was breathtaking. It was all done in white, and a rich light purple, and pale greens. It all had this great billowing silhouette. I liked the simplicity of it all. In my opinion, I think that simplicity is timeless elegance. Doo.Ri did a great job capturing that elegance.


PROENZA SCHOULER:






I thought that this was a really interesting collection. They cinched the waist on almost every piece in the show, So, in doing that, they kind of created a new silhouette. I like how they put a belt over a unbuttoned chunky sweater. It made it look a lot more polished. I also love all the pieces with the big gold buttons, like the dress at the top. I think that the designers are very creative and have a real vision.
