Amazing draping of knits and wovens alike, lettuce-like edges, and utter sophistication it was classic miStephen Burrows at his best, reminding us that the fashion playingdd field is quite ripe with talent that has been decades in the making.
MEW Japan
Another highlight of fashion week; I went into the show knowing next to nothing about the brand, and came out of the presentation so glad to have stopped by; the delicate prints, incredible cuts, and great styling (neon yellow belt!) made this collection the sleeper hit of fashion week.
Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti
Lightness, whimsy, and some 70s inspiration ruled the day at Ferretti-she wasn’t afraid to use bright blocks of colors, oversized photos of lips, and filmy fabrics for the spring.

Taking the audience’s breath away at the Edition Georges Chakra Spring 2010 show were beautiful cut-out shoulder designs on impeccably form-fitting dresses. Adding a much needed zest to the plain silhouette, Chakra sculpted his dresses with plunging backs and sharp shoulder cut outs embellished with Swarovski crystals. The collection was clearly exuberant femininity, with a color palette stretching from pastels to vibrant red to metallic and finally the ever-chic black. All in all, Chakra’s spring collection is full of pieces that every woman has always wanted in their closet, waiting for that special occasion.

Spurr S/S 2010
All too often men’s runway looks are overshadowed by colorful out-of-this world creations for women. So we were refreshed to finally get the scoop on spring fashions for men (and gaze at a parade of male models, of course), at the Spurr presentation. Simon Spurr’s latest line featured tailored suits in a confection of hues including pink and yellow. Collared shirts were neatly tucked into tight;y belted pants that were rolled up at the bottom; perfect for a day on the yacht. Must-have accessories? A flower on the lapel and our favorite—a European carry-all.
Generra S/S 2010
Crisp and casual was the message at the Generra spring presentation under new creative direction. For men we saw a very similar color palette and style to Spurr, but the collection was all about the shorts—hitting just above the knee. A high-waisted skirt paired with a chambray shirt or a floral blouse were our picks for women. Designer Swaim Hutson was definitely paying homage to the ‘90s with light-wash denim pieces, pleats, and loose fits.
