NYFW F/W 2010: Jill Stuart and Ecco Domani

Crammed in the New York Public Library with Gossip Girl celebs and Mena Suvari sitting front row, anticipation for Jill Stuart’s F/W 2010 collection pervaded the space. Despite a few model glitches, this season’s designs were up to par, threaded together with an authoritative vibe. Strutting down the catwalk in knee-high black and green lace up boots, oversized army shirts, dramatic asymmetry and bulky knits dominated the catwalk. Colors were limited to black, red, green, and purple, interspersed with Scottish navy and green plaid juxtaposed with lip-printed silk blouses and mini frocks. To underscore the girl power of the collection bold shoulders were paired with loud military belts and sprinkled with sparkles. Tying it all together were intermittent updates on the top hat, rounded to resemble the British police force, along with short velvet dresses leaving little to the imagination.
Renowned for launching the careers of designers like Alexander Wang, Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation‘s fashion show impressed guests at the tents again this season. The amalgamation of creators made for an interesting show, arraying lavish boas, stark contrasts, sheer frocks, draped jersey, 70’s jump suits, exposed zippers and lots of skin. Keep an eye on the participants: The Blonds, Prova, Prabal Guruno, Siki Im, Altuzarra, Salvor & Organic – their collections are worth saving up for!

Jean Paul Gaultier for Target: Launching March 7th, 2010
Target keeps schewing more and more upscale with each designer collaboration line they excecute — Jean Paul Gaultier for Target being case in point. Paying tribute to the American woman, the line is ripe with trenches, cheeky t-shirts, printed dresses, and tattoo’ed leggings. The price range is $17.99 – $199.99, and we imagine his signatures, such as nautical and tat designs to sell out quickly. Says Gaultier ‘ My collection with Target pays homage to the wide range of personalities that make up the diverse styles of American women. Fromingenue to rock ‘n’ roll, this collection celebrates women of all ages and a host of distinctive, iconic American styles.”
Here are some of our must-haves from the line!
