The fashion world is buzzing with excitement as NY Fashion Week continues this upcoming week. This is a year of new beginnings as Mercedes Benz Fashion Week is now being held in Lincoln Center, rather than the old location of Bryant Park. Designers are showcasing their creations for Spring 2011 and though fall has just begun, there is no shortage of sheer and skimpy pieces on the runway. After flipping through some pictures from the shows on Thursday and Friday I am already seeing some very apparent trends for next year. The sheer, flowy fabrics and minimalist looks are staying strong as they also persevered on this fall's runways. Many of the designers color palettes consist of creams and nudes with pops of refreshing color, which is also something we have seen on the runway in recent seasons. A trend that is faring well on the recent runways is the bohemian traveler look. Tribal prints, long skirts, safari inspired looks. It is all so exciting!
On a more detailed note, Christian Siriano presented his collection on Thursday and maintained the wow-factor that his clothing has always possessed. Incorporating many of the trends in a single collection, he managed to create a collection that was very wearable, yet unique. Being his flamboyant self, he also threw a few over-the-top looks in there too, one of my favorites being this red dress. How spectacular is this, seriously?! This piece better show up in one of Vogue or Elle's spreads this fall because I just can't get over how great it is. The color, the texture....I just want to curl up in a little ball and take a nap inside the ruffles of this dress! I will now leave you to feast your eyes on the gorgeousness of this museum-worthy dress.
'Til next time friends
