Considering the fifteen beauty looks provided by M.A.C. this season, we're pretty sure there will be no shortage of beauty inspiration come Fall 2009.

Fall 2009: Not Just for 15-Year-Old Models

fashionologie — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 15:59:57 PST

>> New York Fashion Week is known as the springboard for new faces every season, but for Fall 2009, it's become the springboard for comebacks - especially with models right around the 30-year-old mark. This morning, Frankie Rayder (34), who hasn't hit a catwalk since the Fall 2004 with the exception of Spring 2009 Givenchy, walked Michael Kors. The runways of Preen, Rodarte, Alexander Wang, and Marc Jacobs have been especially overrun with these mainly late-'90s, early-00's faces - from those who have hovered in and out the past few seasons: Anne Catherine Lacroix (29), Natasa Vojnovic (29), Caroline Ribeiro (29), Jamie Bochert (28), Christina Kruse (34), Carmen Kass (30), Colette Pechekhonova (28), Hannelore Knuts (31); to those who have exited the runway for a while - Tasha Tilberg (29), Kirsten Owen (38), Trish Goff (32) - all are booking some of the most coveted spots this season. Kors, Behnaz Sarafpour, Staerk, VPL, and Diane von Furstenberg are feeling it too - the mature woman is back in New York.

The Red Shoe And The Lights

coutorture — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 12:42:11 PDT

Of all the random trends to crop up during New York Fashion Week, the red shoe and light colored garment combination was a welcomed surprise. We forget where we first saw it because these things happen like osmosis, but we can remember, for sure, seeing it at the Behnaz Sarafpour show and then later at Phillip Lim. That was when things took a serious turn for us and we became obsessed with finding it from other designers (and the stylists who likely made that happen)--funny thing was, we did.

For instance, Proenza Schouler (left) showed strapped red heels as part of their now-in house accessories line, and paired them with a mint green and patent trouser look. We also discovered the combination in the Marc Jacobs show, a decided effort on his part as the monochromatic light outfits to come down the runway were few and far between--the red shoes made a strong point here. Finally, it cropped up at Preen (right), acting in compliment to the red frocks that came before and after.

With a set of designers like that all showing the same micro trend in the same season we're pretty sure it won't be long before the whole thing takes flight. Such a thing might happen so fast that we forget all about it when the clothing finally delivers.

New York Spring 2009 Trend Reports: Let Them Eat Cake

coutorture — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 13:30:09 PDT

Fashion can feel like another world complete with its own set of social mores, aspirations and entitled jokes. Our favorite recession themed joke this season was a set of confection oriented dresses by Behnaz Sarafpour, Dennis Basso, and Erin Fetherston that have us giggling "Let them eat cake!" Now if only we could find an appropriately themed gallery for fiddling while Rome is burning.
