Bright tangerine orange, full tulle skirts, sleek t-shirts, palazzo pants and paper bag waists all feature predominantly in Christian Siriano’s Spring Summer 2012 Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week show.
Every single show that Fiona Cibani gives us is completely different. One season, it’s all flowy fabric draped artfully, the next it’s boxy geometrics. That’s part of what keeps me coming back, because no matter what that season’s esthetic is, Cibani does it well.
The collection was inspired by a trip to a – believe it or not – neon graveyard outside of Las Vegas. The rust and grays are punctuated by flashes of muted orange and blue/purple, like old neon signs left out in the desert that can never truly die.
This glamourous collection is clearly influenced by the treasures of the Orient – beautiful cherry blossoms, the pinks and blues of the asian sky, and the red that symbolizes the Orient.
Believe it or not, it’s almost time to head to NYC to take a look at what Spring 2012 has in store for us. Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week has released it’s preliminary list of designers, although the actual schedule has not been determined yet.

Super secretive Tom Ford finally releases video of his exclusive fashion show that took place last September. Welcome back to women’s wear, Mr. Ford.
Fresh from having three of her dresses featured in “Sex and the City 2,” Joanna Mastroianni keeps the momentum going with her Spring 2011 collection presented at the designer’s Manhattan atelier September 16, 2010.
Marc Jacobs always creates a stir with his shows. This season, he has a decidedly 70′s vibe, which I love, and beautiful, bright colors. Lucky for all of us who didn’t get a seat at the show, it is online for us lowly fashionites to watch.
