The Fashion Informer

New York Fashion Week Spring 2010

Talk about best laid plans.  Before Fashion Week started, I'd planned to post juicy tidbits, photos, reviews and blog entries each day about the comings-and-goings of the fashion flock.  But my eight-shows-a-day schedule has made that nearly impossible.  So for now, here are the most recent recent reviews I've done for VOGUE.COM - on under.ligne, Claiborne by John Bartlett, Lyn Devon, Nima, Vena Cava, Duckie Brown, Tom Scott, L.A.M.B., Jen Kao, Preen and Jason Wu - along with coverage of the FIT Couture Council luncheon honoring Dries van Noten, the Anna Sui/Target pop up shop party and, of course, Fashion's Night Out (because all work and no play makes The Fashion Informer a dull girl).  Happy reading!

Designer John Bartlett debuted his inaugural Claiborne by John Bartlett menswear Spring 2009 collection to buyers and press last week. You can read our full review over at  VOGUE.COM. 

A Picture Being Worth a Thousand Words and All...

And, lastly, a shot I took on my way home from the shows late Wednesday night (the eve of 9/11), to help put all this fashion stuff in perspective.
