Style-Spotter is a day late for the New York Fashion Week shows, which began yesterday, Monday, February 5th. Fashion waits for no one! So let's get to today's fashion news.
Fashion Week is always a big event here in New York City. Fabulousness just oozes out of botox shots, five inch Manolos can be heard pounding the New York City pavement and coffee breath masks the usual air pollution. Fashion and the City are once again the best of friends as stylists, fashion editors, heiresses, actresses and fashionistas make there way to Manhattan for a whirlwind of shows and parties.
Wrapped up in a full length baby brown sherling, Style-Spotter braves the artic New York winter weather and heads over to Bryant Park, hoping to check out some favorite designers.
First on the list: Isaac Mizrahi. Oh, we so do love Mr. Mizrahi! He always manages to bring his upbeat, charismatic personality to everything he does. Whether he is host of a show or designing clothes, Mizrahi is always fun!
For his fall 2007 ready-to-wear line Mizrahi wanted to bring spring into fall. He declared in an interview that spring is the new fall, hence his show title Frozen Spring. "I want something that feels like spring, something light and seasonless. It makes me sad to look at the same old tweeds." And believe me, there is nothing tweed like about his fall line. His tongue and cheek replacements for tweed... flowers and feathers! No seriously. Mizrahi showed that fall can be taken in a completely different direction.
Now while Style Spotter did not love everything about the line, we can surely appreciate his idea of giving us a little bit of spring during fall's cool days and nights. Using winter white as a backdrop, Mizrahi creates a dress that almost gives the appearance of roses floating on a cloud. Big and small roses cover the bottom of the dress, while a neat bow is wrapped in the front of the dress. Fur trim on the hem makes the dress very sweet and charming. But if you are looking for a dress that is a little less charming and more dramatic then you will love Mizrahi's white gown than is tastefully sprinkled with white feathers on the bottom half of the dress. Some dresses are just show stoppers and this one is!
