The highlighted Shows so far – NY Fashion Week
So Far from New York the show that has stood out for me is the Charlotte Ronson show.
Everything was done so well from the combination of textures and prints to the styling and layering.
The collection was a delight “dressing down but in a romantic way” was the thesis of the range, sheerness seemed to be the prominent fabric, layered on top of prints.LOVE.
Floral prints were dressed down with grungy cardigans and loose knitted hats and… I’m all about long maxi denim dresses – this one is perfect!
It does seem like sheerness is going to be a big trend for Spring/Summer 2011, I’m seeing it in most collection (see Thakoon) everything from sheer tops to bottoms to maxi dresses.
I added in this Lela Rose ball gown because I thought it was breathtaking the subtle tie dye at the bottom is spectacular.
These are the shows that have excited me so far and I can’t wait to see what else NY has to offer!

where to stay in kent
while shooting our september catalog our team stayed in the gorgeous chilston park hotel, a historic manor house in lenham, kent, that has been home to politicians, writers and lords. not only is it located in the heart of the scenic “garden of england,” the hotel is full of history, with rooms that still have their original fireplaces, four-poster beds and antiques. here are some photos our team took…
i love all the cool old cars!
after a long day of shooting they walked through the fields at sunset to the pepperbox inn – england’s oldest brewer. how cool!
