If day 1 of Fashion Week was any indication of what we'll be seeing all week - we're in for another season of fabulous neutrals. Minimalism is all over Spring/Summer 2011, and I personally couldn't be happier. Shades of white and beige were all over the collections of Organic by John Patrick (I would wear this whole collection all day, every day), Sachin and Babi for Ankasa and Williow. Neutrals came in the form of very very wide legged pants (Katherine Hepburn style), trench coats, white suits and even some in summer leather.
Unofficial day 1 got the week off to a good start...
I have no words for the chaos created by Fashion's Night Out in the streets of NYC, and I mean in that in the most amazingly fantastic of ways possible...
Mass crowds taking to the streets, no signs of cabs anywhere (it wasn't even Halloween) shopping, drinking, mini beers and free ice cream... what better way to bring shoppers, and bloggers alike, back to stores. In the words of Serena van der Woodsen (or Blake Lively if you live in that little world called reality) "It was like Halloween for fashionites"...
And of course the fact that those roaming streets were non other than celebrities, designers and models didn't hurt...
