A Détacher Fall 2013: Fit for a Trip

Mona Kowalska, the designer of A Détacher, has done a lot of thinking about travel for her Fall 2013 collection. The traveling woman’s wardrobe was the jumping off point for a show that worked through many inventive and practical pieces from thin knits ideal for layering, to denim dresses and suits, to some printed dresses that would have you standing out in a crowd wherever you may be.

What We Saw at New York Fashion Week, Day 3

Nothing was going to stop us from catching Jason Wu, Rag & Bone, SUNO and more on day three of NYFW, not even a blizzard. We put on our L.L. Bean boots and our game faces and sloshed from show to show. Thankfully there were some pleasant surprises in the form of mulled wine and Drew Barrymore at Rag & Bone; silly faces fram Cara Delevingne at Jason Wu; and celebs from Kate Nash to Nicky Hilton to Selita Ebanks, all of whom looked completely untouched by the wintry mix outside.

That’s The Ticket: A Look at the Coolest New York Fashion Week Invites

If you’ve watched Bridezillas, you know it’s difficult to plan a wedding. Every detail is mulled over ad nauseam: the music, decor, seating arrangements, the dress, and, of course, the invitations.

Fashion Week is kind of the same way. Design houses are in a frenzy, burning Lana Del Rey MP3s, obsessing over the set design, sitting in on model castings, making sure the most prominent editors get choice seating, and sending out creative invites to garner excitement (rather than panic attacks) over the several shows they will have to sit through and ultimately, report on.

Just as every bride wants her invitations to capture the essence of her wedding, designers are behooved to get a little creative with their invites. To show you how funky some brands get, we’ve compiled the most interesting invites we’ve received. From embossed flasks to digital picture frames, click through for the fashion show invitations that got us most excited.
