Fashion Week 2010 Recap

Definitely on my bucket list is to attend NYC fashion week, even just to be in the city while it’s going on would be good enough for me. However, I’m still in school so I have to take in the new looks from the comfort of my apartment via many of the blogs covering the shows. While many of the designers go for looks that aren’t ready-to-wear, I’ve found inspiring pieces from many shows (and some I’d even dare to wear)…

BCBG-  Fall 2010 Collection.

O.M.G. Seriously I haven’t been moved by BCBG so much in recent times. BUT their fall 2010 collection is beyond on-point.  Literally all of their designs could walk right off the runway and into a swanky nightclub, chic restaurant or my closet. I love this collection and hats off to them because even with staying trendy they’ve made their clothes wearable by the everyday fashionista.

Let me just say: I. Am. Obsessed. With. This. Obsessed:

Monique Llhuillier- Fall 2010

Lilhuillier, a designer I don’t really keep in my closet, caught my eye with her designs at Bryant Park this year. While a little darker and more Victorian (the lace makes me think of that) I really enjoyed her collection.  Her pieces aren’t very out-of-the box but maybe that’s why I like them. They hold a very classic feel to them and I especially love this outfit: (lacy tights get me every time!)

Victoria Beckham- Fall 2010

Yes, you read that correctly, Victoria Beckham had her very own show this year. And, while the models walked down the runway looking like clones of the ex-Spice Girl, Beckham has a flair for fashion (no surprise here really considering she was the Posh one). Beckham has this understated tone of glamour in all of her pieces. I love that the first part of her collection is all in nude. I’m obsessed with nude for this year and she’s seems to be too. Also, the lines of her outfits feel like a cross between a hot- french woman and a space-age glamour goddess. Maybe I just really like her collection but I think not only is it wearable but it really would make any woman feel sexy. Do you think mini David Beckhams will pop up her in accessories line? Fingers crossed!

Ms. Beckham is incredible  for this look alone, gotta love it:

Also, I couldn’t go with out mentioning:

Michael Kors. Hot. (In all honesty, where the eff am I going to wear pic # 1.. but its all still gorgeous)

This is STUNNING:

Obviously there are hundreds of designers I could feature, these designers just caught my eye off-hand while perusing the blogs. Just from the pictures you can see the week was exciting and full of amazing creations. Hopefully one day I’ll be showing off my own pics from the shows, but until then my fellow blogger’s posts will have to do.

PS: On a personal note- I would like to send a big shout out to Billy Reid and the team in NYC,  they were named “2010 Best New Menswear Designer In America” by GQ! (I interned for them in NYC this summer and they are an amazing bunch with amazingggg clothes) Super happy for you all congrats!!!
