What They Wore: New York Fashion Week: Part One
Though we would never attempt to divine what will be shown on New York’s most notable runways, there is one thing we can always count on: our favorite fashionable femmes will undoubtedly knock our socks off with their impeccable ensembles. Of course, this F/W 10 season did not disappoint, as we saw loads of inspirational looks at parties, presentations, and the Bryant Park shows. Whether it was Gaia Repossi’s shimmering sheath or Vogue’s Meredith Melling Burke’s amazingly crafted sweater dress, we are beyond impressed with our What They Wore fashion week roundup and hope you, dear readers, are too! Gaia Repossi and Alexia Niedzielska
Ever the magpies—particularly when looking at a sea of winter black—we were immediately drawn to the flashy frock and rich jewel tones that Gaia Repossi (left) and Alexia Niedzielska’s wore to attend the Purple Fashion Magazine party. We love how Repossi’s metal-wrapped slouchy Isabel Marant boots complimented her glittery garment, while the contrasting white-on-black look of Niedzielska was very au courant! And though their chic satchels and beautiful bracelets and rings certainly add an indulgent element, we think their devil-may-care attitude is the perfect finishing touch! Margherita Missoni
The poster child for her family’s namesake line, Margherita Missoni is always decked out in the maison’s best. Her ensemble at the La Perla Fall 2010 Presentation was no exception to this rule; Missoni looked darling as ever in a black lace blouse (a key piece for autumn), Missoni stripe sweater, and boucle tweed skirt. We love how she effortlessly combined patterns and textures for a tantalizingly tactile and intriguing outfit. Her black suede Louis Vuitton Sophia Coppola Asphalt Bag ($3730) and felt fedora personalized the dark-hued look, which fell right in line with all the somber shades seen on the fall runways. Olivia Palermo
One of our favorite stylesetters, Olivia Palermo, was snapped looking perfectly pulled together (as always) at Rachel Roy’s Fall 2010 presentation. The society gal-turned-accessories editor routinely pulls off statement pieces with personal panache, and her oversized leopard print belt is another testament to her knack for exciting details. We like how she mixed this animal accent with the Crinkle Silk Scoop Neck Dress from Roy’s pre-fall collection for a fashion-forward take on the khaki-craze. As well, we appreciate how she kept the rest of her look classic and clean with ladylike earrings and an understated gold cuff. Alexa Chung
As evidenced by the barrage of good press Alexa Chung received for her first capsule collection for Madewell, it looks like this Brit is still making waves on this side of the pond! The darling dresser capitalized on her extensive vintage closet to create a line that is both adorable and seriously covetable. And while we can’t wait to get our hands on her striped jumpers and cute collared frocks, we are certainly happy for now to know that her velvet shorts (worn with leggings), button-up blouse, and sporty peacoats will be hitting the stores sometime this summer!
