I can’t believe I’m writing a post about the Pre-Fall 2009 collections so soon. They kind of give me that sick feeling in my stomach – the kind you get when you see Christmas decorations in the store the day after Halloween. It’s just that after seeing the much anticipated Alexander Wang‘s offerings and being completely bored and disappointed, I had to see what else was out there. (Surely, he didn’t think he was going to ride on his reputation for perfect t-shirts and premature cult status for forever?)
When I of all people, start getting a wee bit sick of this unending black palette, when I am the poster girl of a virtually colorless wardrobe… maybe I’m just ready for spring, for something bright, for warm weather, for people to perk up, for Christmas to be over with, for us to never have to hear “trying economic times” ever again…

Narciso Rodriguez

Monique Lhuillier had a large selection of bright beautiful gowns.

I am in love with Rachel Roy and this entire collection. She has definitely made up for a bit of slump lately and it all feels so fresh – not a single thing I wouldn’t wear myself. Those shoes are fantastic but feel like summer.

Zero + Maria Cornejo

Donna Karan

love this color – Versace is always good for a little trash!
