>> Jenni Kayne may be eight months pregnant and unable to travel from her LA homebase, but that didn't keep her Spring 2009 collection from making the cross-country flight in time for Fashion Week.
In the past, Jenni's gone for the models-as-still-life presentation approach, but since she couldn't be at today's presentation, the 31 looks were styled on clean, white mannequins in one big U-shape. Such minimalism kept the focus on the clothes — the simple, effortlessly cool pieces that Jenni has made a name on. Her trademark ensemble — slouchy tank paired with long, floor-grazing skirt — was intact, but there were plenty of new additions as well — the watercolor floral print especially caught my eye.
