Fierce


Project Runway Season 4 winner Christian Siriano's collection debuted on Bluefly on this past Wednesday. Currently it consists of 5 pieces, all ranging from $96-$590, including the 20% off that Bluefly is giving right now. Despite the small amount that is for sale, other pictures shown suggest that more is to be released from the designer. It looks promising! Make sure to check out the video to get your long needed dose of fierceness that we miss from Project Runway.

Fall 2008 Runway #7

Oscar De La Renta

Full skirts, sparkly accents and tights...three of my favorite things! This collection embodies most of what I enjoy, I love sparkle and sheen on fabrics and in outfits (done classy and chic, of course). The colors were kept to neutrals like black, gray and navy but accented them with metallics - so keep that in mind when making your fall and winter outfits!

Fall 2008 Runway #6

Luca Luca Fall 2008

Doing a monochromatic collection, like Bottega Venetta, the silhouettes and textures became Luca Luca's main focus. It gave a lot of insight into what we will be seeing in stores and wearing for the winter. Luca Luca also included gloves in her collection like Bottega Venetta and DVF, but threw in a twist but not having them full gloves and having them only covering the wrists and palms.

Fall 2008 Runway #5

Diane von Furstenberg Fall 2008


I absolutely adore DVF. If I could live in one designer for the rest of my live, she would be it. As she always does, she used bright colors and bold patterns. She included wide-strapped heels that have been popping up in other stores, so it should be a trend to look out for! She also used gloves as Bottega Venetta did, but she did not use such a short length.

Fall 2008 Runway #4

Bottega Venetta Fall 2008

As a very monochromatic collection, the silhouettes were the main focus of these pieces. The dresses reminded me of Breakfast at Tiffany's; classic and chic. Bottega Venetta use of gloves added to the Breakfast at Tiffany's feel and seemed like a very chic trend to look forward to for fall!

Fall 2008 Runway #3

Rachel Roy Fall 2008


I almost get a victorian feel from this collection. I loved the rich colors used and love the feather and broach details. Also, take notice that Rachel Roy has done the same style belt as BCBG did in their collection. I was intrigued by the hat of the last model, perhaps we will see hats making more of a statement than usual?

Fall 2008 Runway #2

BCBG Fall 2008


The trend of nude heels transfered to clothing for BCBG. They also continue the belted waist trend but I love how they throw it off with a tied, messy belt. Gorgeous silhouettes and beautiful shades of white, ivory and nude.

Fall 2008 Runway #1

I'll be introducing you to four looks from the Fall 2008 Runway collections from various designers for this week, including my comments and thoughts on them. Our first installment is:

Gucci Fall 2008


I love the use of so many bold patterns at Gucci, and I'm so happy to see that we'll have black tights again for fall/winter! Hopefully we will see that tights continue to be a trend throughout other designers collections.
