NY Fashion Week
September 9th, 2008 admin Fashion Event 0
New York’s latest fashion season opened on Thursday, Sept. 4 but the first significant runway show was on Sunday, Sept. 7.All the people, paparazzi and security buzzing around fashion show made the Bryant Park tents feel like a sold-out concert.
Diane von Furstenberg. Nearly 40 years in the business and she still looks impossibly gorgeous with those cheekbones that reach for the sky and a youthful fashion mindset that is more immediate and edgy than designers who are old enough be her grandchildren.Von Furstenberg offered few of the wrap-style dresses that have made her such a success but she did show a novel tiered wrap dress in a puckered black plisse fabric.
At show, her husband Barry Diller was seated between Holly wood star Uma Thurman and Jennifer Lopez, while Anna Wintour chatted to Venus Williams a few seats along.
She isn’t the only designer to buy into that trend, though, as genie pants have become a fixture in the spring collections, which run through Friday.
