Fiona Green, Fashion Editor at FLARE, is on the scene and at the shows in New York. Here are her top tweets from day one:
1. Kicking off #NYFW at Lincoln Center (aka base camp) for @BCBGMAXAZRIA
2. From @BCBGMAXAZRIA show notes: “….new elongated proportions…a geometric abstraction of Bauhaus style” #NYFW
3. Geometric panels in warm neutrals @BCBGMAXAZRIA for FW12. Clean-cut looks w/ fur as sole embellishment. #NYFW
4. Amazing outerwear @BCBGMAXAZRIA – leather-trimmed wool topcoats, patchwork fur vests #NYFW
5. Now seeing Kimberly Ovitz @ Pace Gallery. Balenciaga store is just across the street, lots of show-goers doing a quick pop-in #NYFW
6. Glam goth girls at Kimberly Ovitz, very Rooney Mara/Girl With the Dragon Tattoo inspired. Amazing “hairy” textures in faux fur, knits #NYFW
7. Mixing camel coats+neon knits at Jenni Kayne #NYFW
8. Crowd @Cynthia_Rowley includes Waris Ahluwalia and Abigail Breslin. Challenge anyone to find the 6 degrees of separation there! #NYFW
9. Rich palette @Cynthia_Rowley, all warm amber, caramel, oxblood colours. Recurring “tortoise” print mimics turtle shell pattern #NYFW
10. Adorable finale @ilove_libertine with dancing models parading down runway #NYFW
