New York Fashion Week Fall 2012 has finally come to a close, but not without leaving fashion lovers with their bi-annual dose of fierce style both on and off the catwalk.
The fashionistas that descended on Lincoln Center were just as captivating as the professional models who they’d come to see walk the runway. From avant garde getups to prim and proper conservative looks, everyone knows that nothing’s off-limits when it comes to fashion week in the city that never sleeps.
While inside the coveted shows, it came as no surprise that the collections that wowed me the most came from my two make-believe besties: Tracy Reese and Rachel Roy. Even though they’re not on my speed dial, I have had the pleasure of interviewing both sought-after BG designers.
Their bold, colorful, audacious collections were akin to watching a fashion fantasy come to life by way of exquisitely beautiful beings. Not only were their designs mind-blowingly gorgeous, but their ability to use makeup to further convey their stories was nothing less than a job well-done. The lovely Mally Rancol worked her magic for the TR show, while makeup legend Bobbi Brown brought out the best in the RR models.
Although spring is near, the fashions shown this week have me anxious for autumn already.
