The Dark Side of Fashion: Catherine Malandrino Fall 09

5:43 PM / Posted by Nicole C / comments (0)

French born designer Catherine Malandrino showcased her Fall 09 Collection at NY Fashion Week the other day and WOW! STUNNING COLLECTION in my eyes! The details on the dresses and gowns are amazing! Definitely a lot of ready to wear pieces for celebrities on the red carpet and some for us normal folks to get as an investment for those special black tie occasions. Her models looked like they jumped out of an Edgar Allen Poe novel, of course with a more fashion forward twist. It was a very 'dark' collection yet very impressive. Her looks also reminded me of Mrs. Nellie Lovett's character in movie Todd Sweeney: Demon Barber from Fleet Street with the models' pale face and the dark black make-up circling the entire eyes. *Two thumbs up* [All pics courtesy of NYMAG.COM]

And in case you didn't watch the Todd Sweeney movie this is Mrs. Nellie Lovett(Helena Bonham Carter) whom I am talking about...

NY Fashion Week Madness

10:22 AM / Posted by Nicole C / comments (0)

So since I couldn't attend NY Fashion Week, I have definitely been keeping up with the shows at NYMAG.COM. Definitely very interesting looks yet at the same time, it seems that black, white and dark toned colors such as PLUM are present in some of the designer's fall 09 collection. However, there still are burst of color here and there just to brighten up the wardrobe. Below are various looks from different designers which are my favorite and most interesting looks to me out of the bunch (in no particular order...just which ever look came first from my albums) They are also part of the Top 100 Runway Looks at NYMAG.COM! Enjoy! [All pictures courtesy of NYMAG.COM]


Niiice! Classic yet modern and simple twist on a Japanese Kimono. Ready to wear!

Project Runway Contestant...I LOVE LOVE the pastel-ly colors and details of the skirt! My favorite color!

Naeem Khan...not something I would necessarily wear, BUT the color blend is amazing! I swear i thought her feet were on fire...doesn't it?...when you first glance at the bottom? Maybe its just me

Monique Lhuillier...the sleeves are amazing!

Matthew Williamson...definitely ready to wear!

Just thought I'd throw in a gorgeous dress from Versace...I'm not sure if his collection was part of NY Fashion Week or Milan's...I don't categorize the pictures as I save them.
