Hypothesis: Fall 09 is mostly a season of repeats. Proof: 1. Balmainia. 2. The entire decade of the 80′s turning up… everywhere. 3. Marni loving Prada perhaps a bit too much. 4.

When the last look came out at the Narciso show on Raquel last Wednesday night, everyone kind of oohed and we wondered who would be the first lucky girl to rock his sequined ballerina look (because we knew this one practically came with a sign that would read,”Photograph me, you know you want to”).

The New York Fall 09 runways saw a curious mishmash of trends – More “downtown” ideas like neon, cut-outs, and what could only be referred to as hooker boots, alongside more “uptown” looks like fur, cascading ribbons, and peplums.

Of all the trends that popped up last week during New York Fashion Week (so much more on that later), the one that took us by surprise most was the use of fur by designers who’d never designed with animal skins in the past. First, we saw it at Ohne Titel, then at Alexander Wang Read more →

Looks like the r-word hit the runways harder than we thought. I heard the term “DIY” batted around backstage so much it had me wondering if next season we might see models backstage with lash curlers and cans of Elnett in hand.
