He might be 71 years of age, Roberto Cavalli still knows how the youngsters love to party. Extremely loud (some front row ladies were spotted with their hands on their ears) and super sexy, that is.
Cavalli took his party back to the sixties as he presented long sleeved, drop waisted dresses, mostly in black and white. His signature animal prints were mixed up with typical sixties prints, like a leopard print slowly evolving in a hounds tooth version.
The silhouette and fit of the dresses might have been modest, Cavalli still gave the designs his sexiness by opting for airy fabrics and sequined details. Besides, he gave his pumps a pink sole, for extra sex appeal and… to party on till early morning.

Derek Lam Catwalk Fashion Show New York FW2012

That was a clear and solid collection Derek Lam presented yesterday. The core clothes were chic, minimalist separates warmed up with American classics, such as a navy peacoat and cable knits, all of which were boosted by exceptional details and fabrics. Leather was a mainstay, whether on fitted baseball jackets with knit trims and streamlined shells, or as an accent, as in the black lambskin shoulders on a long ivory silk gown. It gave the collection a luxurious edge.

Thakoon Catwalk Fashion Show New York FW2012

Romantic and very feminine, in an almost cliche way – that’s what Thakoons fall collection reflected. An undercurrent of sly irony and subversive sexuality coursed through the collection, winking at bad taste along the way. A camel coatdress that looked plain and proper from the front had an exciting purple leopard-printed pony collar and a leather basket-weave panel in the back. Crinkled patent leather came in black and wild pink. Chubby sweaters were laced with Mongolian fur. And for the girl who doesn’t wear her heart on her sleeve, there was chic understatement too, such as a black halter — completely backless — worn with matching trousers.

Diane von Furstenberg Catwalk Fashion Show New York FW2012

It was a sophisticated collection, Diane von Furstenberg sent out yesterday. Sophisticated, with a distinct Parisian chic. The shownotes mentioned the woman she and designer Yvan Mispelaere had in mind: “Glamorous at a moment’s notice,” “effortless and elaborate” and with “a heightened awareness to the promise of places she has not yet been.”
Furstenberg opened the show with a burgundy jersey off-the-shoulder dress which flaunted the model’s curves, and continued with a series of elegant looks, all in intriguing color-mixes.

Alexander Wang Catwalk Fashion Show New York FW2012

Filed under Events, Fashion, Featured Items, models, New York, womenswear
That was a dark show and a tough and sharp fall-collection Alexander Wang presented yesterday. Again Wang played with perceptions by manipulating his fabrics.
Fabrics looked stiff and shiny, the palette was white, black and a bit of oxblood. The silhouette was graphic, with lacquered merino wool tweeds, waxed suedes and shrink wrapped-jacquard knits. The first look was a boxy, white lacquered tweed raincoat with a round helmet of a hood. Under it, a fishnet turtleneck was pulled up over the model’s mouth. Sometimes it reflected a mood of chic aggression.
After the models took their final walk, the lights changed and out came a more elite and elder pack of models, including Shalom Harlow, Karolina Kurkova and Gisele Bündchen as the finale. The looks they wore were the same but with less shine, more refinement and more tailoring.
