Thank the fashion gods for the Phi Ready to Wear – Fall 2009 – 2010. I first learned about PHI during New York fashion week. I attended the show which was housed in this huge warehouse which required the use of a huge freight elevator. It was cool. I got to see a lot of my fav models like Sasha, Du Juan, Freja. I was happy to see the label didn’t let me down during a season where there are slim pickings.
Temperley Fall 2009 – 2010 collection is another label redeeming New York for me. I’m glad there are a few gems throughout the metallic mess. The jackets are really great in this collection. I saw Temperley Spring 2008 when I was in New York. I remember her afterparty was pretty kickass. Memories of fashion week.

OMG, Rodarte is perfection. I am calling it now and Rodarte wins for best collection of NYC. Their clothing is a lesson in textiles; incorporating colour and texture. They get better year after year. The collection wasn’t all black either, that is a big bonus in my books this season.

Philip Sparks Ready to Wear – Fall 2009- 2010 Lookbook
Philip told me that his theme for fall was Peter and the Wolf. I thought it was an interesting concept. I had no idea that Philip would execute it to such perfection. I’m in love with this menswear collection. It’s the best Philip Sparks collection yet. The everything about this lookbook is perfection. The models, the backdrop, the clothing, the fur. Congratulations on such a wonderful collection Philip, I can’t wait to see this in March.
Dean Davidson Spring 2009 Lookbook
New York Fashion Week is a metallic mess. The huge trend for Fall Winter 2009 – 2010 is metallics. It’s often metallics combined with 80s influence. The result isn’t pretty
I usually am a fan of Jonathan Saunders, but he lost me this year.
I don’t know what to say about Marc Jacobs. I guess I couldn’t expect him to top last season
Erin Fetherston yikes
Preen – God those pants, hideous.
Barbara Tfank – Prom gone so very wrong
I’m hoping Milan and Paris redeem this season otherwise I’m going to be cringing in fall when this stuff translated down into fashion fashion.

Jeremy Laing Ready to Wear – Fall 2009 – 2010.
I’m a big fan of this collection The Jeremy Laing Fall 2009 video is what sealed the deal for me. Everything looks so good moving. The music selection is perfect. Things that I thought I didn’t like in print came to life in video.
There is also a video of Jeremy backstage and he gives us more insight into the inspiration for the collection and it’s construction.

Yohji Yamamoto’s Y-3 Ready to Wear – Fall 2009 – 2010 collection was the perfect streetwear collection for me. No one does pants like Yohji.
