Halloween weekend is finally upon us! We've had Halloween costumes on the brain all week and we're not the only ones.

Nomia designer Yara Flynn has always been popular with the avant garde art-y/fashion-y set, so it was fitting that her spring 2012 presentation involved mixed media. A video of models on beach in Montauk opened the show, Georgia O’Keefe's haunting voice provided the soundtrack. A real live runway show followed the short film to show off Flynn's collection inspired by O'Keefe's travels to New Mexico. Her signature cutouts on dresses and reinforced knees on pants were still there, but there was a heightened maturity and grace to this collection. “I obviously didn’t go to New Mexico to shoot a video,” Flynn said. "And I didn’t want it to be too literal, so we went to the dunes in Montauk. My brand is associated with downtown and I wanted to take it somewhere purer.”

This season Nomia, one of the Fashionista 15, stepped up its game, showing in a cavernous space neighboring Milk Studios. The scene was minimal meets hip with a singular white polygonal structure as the backdrop, to match the Nomia girl's unembellished, downtown look. Designer Yara Flinn's collection was refreshingly icy in the best sense, like a half frozen lemonade in ninety degree heat. (Said heat, thankfully, took a hiatus for NYFW.) The unfettered nature of Flinn's designs are a breath of fresh air in what can feel like an over-saturated, hyper-sensory streak of shows.
I've been captivated by Nomia's sleek yet feminine designs since Gen Art's presentation at fashion week, so I decided to head over to designer Yara Fl
