me and marc jacobs

we've had a rocky affair. when he's on, he's ON...but when i get let down it's the most heart-wrenching breakup a girl can go through. last time around i was disgusted with the overly grunged out, thrown together thrift store looks he sent down the runway for his marc by marc collection. this time he cleaned the kids up and they look pretty damn good.



i think marc and i are back together again.
at least for the season...

oh, new york

how you disappoint me! i know it's only a few days into fashion week, but where is the passion?! on other occasions i find myself falling in love with everything you give me, this time around i find that i'm struggling to pull together a few pieces to share. is it that i am getting cynical, or is new york getting too somber? i am fully aware of the fact that your city is a tough one, and that you must dress accordingly, but does that mean you have to wimp out on the creativity?


show me more!!

an interesting take on androgeny from ruffian
by brian wolk and claude morais:
















a disappointing collection from threeasfour.

i was expecting more drama! all i got where a few ruffles...












as well as slim choices from jonathan saunders:













preen seemed to stray from the bondage dress silhouette of past seasons, showing a stronger range:






















highlights so far:


brazilian designer alexandre herchcovitch:























and alexander wang:

























wang's collection was one of the few that stood out because it truly captures the essence of new york. it's gritty, it's androgenous, it's beautiful but not too fussy. there are creative details in the collection although wang is careful not to let them overshadow the entire garment. he is a true city kid because of his understanding that girls need to look amazing and stand out from the crowd, but they also need to dash for the subway every now and then. his clothes speak to both sides of that girl...the side that wants to look amazing and the side that needs to be ready for anything because if there is one thing that you CAN rely on in new york, it's that you never know what the day might bring you...
