AW 2010 New York Fashion Week
We've focused on the clothes, stalked the front row guests and caught wind of all the gossip. Now, it's time to zone in on the models. The Winter collections were filled with unexpected model moments; Victoria's Secret angels at Prada, Elle Macpherson at Louis Vuitton, and catwalk veterans Kristy Hume and Kristen McNenamy at Calvin Klein.
OK peeps, before we head straight into the London shows, lets take a quick (cat)walk through some standout trends New York had to offer. There's definitely been a pattern emerging with military, tailoring, ladylike, layering and texture all appearing in full force. Despite the hot weather outside this is making me want to ditch the Summer dress in favour of a woolen coat and hosiery!
We spotted Demi Moore and Brooke Shields front row at Donna Karan’s Fall show and later caught up with Brooke and Rachel Zoe to hear why they are huge fans of the designer. Hear them gush about Donna and get a look at the luscious clothes.
FAB caught up with People Revolution's Kelly Cutrone backstage at the Jeremy Scott show in New York last week. Cutrone, who directed the parade, talks about what makes the visionary designer such a pleasure to work with. Check it out in our exclusive vid below!
So, what did you think of the New York Fall collections? I know we're still digesting them — even though London Fashion Week is already well under way— but it was a whirlwind of fashion fun! I'm still trying to pick my top faves; Rodarte immediately comes to mind, but who else?
What better way to end NY Fall Fashion Week than with off-duty models who were snapped on their way to the shows and parties! Some were caught on the sidewalks around Bryant Park, many were photographed in the front rows, and others were spotted at the fancy soirees. Always looking gorgeous, obvi.

Calvin Klein may have been simple on the runway, but the front row crowd definitely helped amp up the WOW factor. The show managed to lure an exciting crowd including Isabel Lucas, Helena Christensen, Kate Bosworth and Naomi Watts, while Jessica Biel and JT made a sneaky appearance at the Paris68 parade.
I'm a little sad that NY Fashion Week didn't attract more fashionable faces this year (WHERE are you Rachel Bilson?); perhaps the upcoming London and Paris shows will deliver more on the A-lister front.
We've come to expect sterile collections from Francisco Costa, but this is perhaps his simplest Calvin Klein offering to date. A basic palette of black, white, grey and a touch of cobalt blue filled the runway for Fall, where simple silhouettes and fuss-free fabrics reigned supreme. Sleeves were a focal point, with cocoon shapes rounding out shoulders and wrists, and fitted high-waisted pants made a pleasant appearance in high-shine fabrics.
