>> Cathy Pill has been showing during couture week since January 2007 when she was invited into the fray by the Chambre Syndicale, but the collection she produced last week for Fall 2008 is really an attention-grabber. 

Full of paint-spattered prints and sporty, deconstructed tank dresses, the collection doesn't have all the pomp and circumstance of say, Chanel or Dior couture, but it does hold its own as the voice of a younger generation. Plus, it's worth noting that Cathy was produced by the same Brussels Academy that honed Olivier Theyskens.
