These Are The Fables

Calvin Klein: Gorgeously minimal, with rich textures and interesting, but at times unflattering, silhouettes. Although grey was huge this past fall/winter, Costa made it look fresh again by mixing in warmer colors.








J Mendel: Classic, conventional, sometimes pretty. I loved the old Hollywood hair and makeup, but I usually look forward to their gorgeous, empire-waisted princess gowns, and there was a severe lack this season. Eh.




Zac Posen: In the very beginning and very end of the show, there were some really great, body-conscious cuts that were reminiscent of Mouret. Of course, there were some extremely hideous pieces, and I didn't find most of the collection to be aesthetically pleasing. There was too much ruching, ruffling, and pleating, and as a whole, the show didn't seem cohesive. However a few gorgeous dresses stood out.
