And it begins. F/W 12 fashion month starts after Pre-Fall and Couture just ended. Yesterday I froze to death standing around NYFW with Mr. Street Peeper - a re-introduction to the street style circus.
My first F/W 12 women’s review of the Kaelen (a lovely new designer I used in a Vogue TV spot a year ago) presentation here. Many, many more to come.
I’m reviewing menswear collections for the first time over at Stylesight.com’s runway blog. It seems counter intuitive, but sometimes it seems like men’s fashion actually has more going on thematically.
In particular, I’m quite impressed with Kris Van Assche’s F/W 12 - a pleasingly utilitarian (with a touch of fascism) collection.
A look from Preen’s gorgeous Pre-Fall collection, currently #1 in my book.

I’m still doing all the Pre-Fall 2012 reviews over at Stylesight’s runway blog and today, as expected, one of my favorites stood out. Phoebe Philo has made Céline one of the most innovative labels since she took the reigns and her latest collection pushed things forward again.
At first I wasn’t so sure about these looks - it seemed sort of like upscale chav - i.e. super soft leather track pants and voluminous pinstripe jogging suits. Then the furs, peplum tops and ikats started popping up and I was sold.
