DVF NY Fashion Week

Above is Diane Von Furstenburg with her new right hand French man Yvan Mispelaere. The collection was beautiful with bright colours and of course the signature DVF prints-some magnified. Very sophisticated tailoring paired with beautiful draping are what I always notice from DVF. Curtain please.

Designer Profile: Suno

OK so I am not only in LOVE with the Suno FW 2010 collection, but I think the story that goes along with these amazing designers is pretty inspiring! So please take a minute to check out a their collection, read their story and watch the interview. Suno is a rockin' company that is making a difference in the world of fashion. Enjoy!

Spoiler Alert!!! Drumroll, Please.

And the winner of Project Runway Season 6 is...Mean-a-Irina Shabayeva. Although all three contestants had very unique collections for the final challenge, it was Irina who walked away with $100 000 to start her own line, a fab trip to Paris and an editorial spread in Marie Claire magazine. Despite the mass amounts of black and "the warrior women is not a new character"-Micheal Kors Irina's line was stunning and I thought it did measure up. Her fellow contestants dubbed Shabayeva Mean-a-Irina, will this reputation precede her?

Who Will Measure Up?

Project Runway Season 6 comes to a close this Thursday, when the final three designers Carol Hannah, Irina and Althea show their collections at Bryant Park. The three designers are doing very different collections Carol Hannah is doing a Duke-University-at-night-inspired line, Irina (aka little miss attitude) is incorporating silk-screened New York T-shirts under her Coney-Island -inspired collection, and last but not least my favorite Althea's line is inspired by sci-fi movies. Based on the peeks of the designs in the Finally Part 1 it looks like it will be an exciting show, especially since in the previews it shows Tim Gunn having a pre runway spazz backstage. Who are you gunning for (no pun intended)? To be continued...
