Fashion Update February 2008
New Fashion Trends Revealed on High Fashion Week in New York

Head Band

Models from Left to Right: Sass & Bide, Alexander Wang and Erin Fetherston.

High Fashion Week in New York revealed - the headband is the "hottest" hat! Fine vintage accessories help create a complete image. The headband is not as pretentious as a hat and can be combined with casual styles. However, it will look particularly striking with evening dresses.


Bows

Models: Charles Nolan, Doo Ri, Alexander Wang
Large bows at the neck visually enhances a small chest and attracts attention to your charming face.


Purple

Models: Diane Von Furstenberg, Abaete and Oscar de la Renta.
Purple is still the fashion's favorite color right now. All shades of purple swayed on the runway during the Fashion Week in New York: from the saturated bright purple (Abaete) to the delicate muted purple (Oscar de la Renta).


Fishnet

Models: Verrier, Baby Phat and Sass & Bide
Sexy fishnet stockings is another trend of the Fashion Week in New York. In addition, mesh fabric is added into the blouses.

Whiter than White

Models: Abaete, Verrier, and Erin Fetherston.

Most men consider white the sexiest color. It seems like designers listened to their opinion. The abundance of white dresses was blinding at some shows.


Maxi

Models: BCBG, Lela Rose, and Oscar de la Renta.
"Evening dresses must be floor-length" - this is a mandate of the designers at the High Fashion Week in New York. Romantic maxi for a reception or a black-tie dinner? Why not!

Forest Nymphs

Models: Catherine Malandrino, Cynthia Steffe and Doo Ri.
Juicy foliage color is still a designer's favorite. Pair it with deep brown and you won't go wrong!


What We Love from the 80's

Models: Betsey Johnson, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Preen.
Eighties are back. And so are all the consequences: shoulder pads, leggings, and pattern sweaters.
