Erin Barr. You’ll remember the name from my coverage of her debut Spring/Summer 2013 collection at New York Fashion Week in September. She was one of my must-watch designers back then, and she still remains at the top of my rankings for Fall/Winter 2013. With a successful presentation months behind her, she’s moved on to bigger and … Continue reading »

Introducing: Erin Barr Spring/Summer 2013
For her debut collection, Erin Barr was inspired by Marilyn Monroe. But while looking at the Wisconsin-born designer‘s Spring/Summer 2013 presentation, you won’t find the media-adored, glammed-up version of Monroe. Instead, you’ll discover the iconic bombshell as she is off the set and in her own clothes. Continue reading »
Beading Brazil: Farah Angsana Spring/Summer 2013
Inspired by Brazil, Farah Angsana allowed her Spring/Summer 2013 collection to transition from black and white to long chiffon gowns in an array of colors, like sky blue, green and orange, also featuring a coral and turquoise beading (which was used on two of my favorite pieces found three and four looks before the finale). Ultimately resulting … Continue reading »
The Sinister Side of Spring: Rochambeau SS13
When my invitation to Rochambeau‘s Spring/Summer 2013 presentation arrived in the mail, I was ecstatic. Ever since I reviewed their fall/winter collection, I have been greatly anticipating what was in store for the menswear brand’s take on spring and summer.

Most Exciting Show this Season: The Blonds Spring/Summer 2013
Collection: Phillipe and David Blond’s The Blonds Spring/Summer 2013 Concept: Equal parts drag queen beach party and night out at any gay club. Or the life of a gay mermaid. (I’m not sure on which is more accurate.) The theme was “Psycho Beach Party,” but the collection wasn’t very beach appropriate, of course. Continue reading »
Structured Rebellion: Public School SS13
After dealing with the stresses of the world this morning (i.e. my upstairs neighbor’s radiator bursting, adding a heavy rain to the NYFW-induced hurricane state of my studio apartment), I realized how nice it is to be in an industry where I’m completely happy and my work — like reviewing Spring/Summer 2013 collections at Mercedes-Benz … Continue reading »
NYFW: Street Style at Lincoln Center
So after work (yep, I’m a copy producer for a fashion brand by day, fashion blogger/street style photographer by night) I thought I’d go snap a few style pictures at Lincoln Center outside of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. I didn’t expect to get much because of the time, and I was right. Found a few good … Continue reading »
NYFW Spring/Summer 2013: Designers to Watch
It’s official: Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week has started! And off with a huge bang as last night I helped celebrate the launch of the Antonio Lopez: Fashion, Art, Sex, and Disco by Roger Padilha and Mauricio Padilha (who I greatly adore). I had a truly spectacular time, and the party definitely got me in the right … Continue reading »
