THE BEST OF THE BEST OF NEW YORK FASHION WEEK:

ACCORDING TO THE BOOK OF SISTER

So, here's the thing, I'm quite vocal about what I like and what I dislike. You can take it or leave it. That being said, New York Fashion Week did not disappoint. I would have to say my favorite show so far (granted, I'm "watching" online and not in person) has been that of Thakoon. I love that they mixed prints and fabrics that wouldn't necessarily seem congruent. Like showcasing a heavy poncho cinched at the waist and layered with embellished ikat leggings and mini skirts with tights. Of course, I was happy with most that I saw from all of the designers, truth be told. Below are my favorite looks from the week.

CAROLINA HERRERA FALL 2011
BLACK TIERED BOMBSHELL DRESS. AGELESS AND PERFECT. 

ALEXANDER WANG FALL 2011
ALWAYS ONE OF MY FAVORITE DESIGNERS, WANG TOOK IT HOME WITH TUXEDO BLOUSES AND HAREM PANTS. 

ALTUZARRA FALL 2011
I LOVE THAT THIS IS BASICALLY ALL WHITE, BUT WITH SOME BLING. THE FUR CUFF AROUND THE ANKLE IS PRETTY AMAZING, TOO.

BCBG 2011
ADROGYNOUS AND YET STILL SEXY AND SOPHISTICATED. I LOVE THE LINES THIS LOOK CREATES.

DEREK LAM FALL 2011
NOTICE THE SHEER TOP AND FULL MAXI SKIRT. THIS LOOK IS NEUTRAL AND YET EDGY.

DKNY FALL 2011
LOVE THIS LOOK FROM HEAD TO TOE. TURTLE NECK, FUR/LEOPARD JACKET AND SOCKS WITH BOOTIES.

DIANE VON FURSTENBERG FALL 2011
A PLAY ON HER TRADITIONAL WRAP DRESS. SEXY OPEN NECK COLLAR WITH LEATHER BELT THIS DRESS IS SO HOT.

JASON WU FALL 2011
LADY IN RED. PERIOD.

PRABAL GURUNG FALL 2011
LONG AND PLAYFUL AND FULL OF FEMININE GLORY. THIS LOOK IS DIVINE.

RAG AND BONE FALL 2011
IS THAT A KILT WITH FRINGE? IT IS AND I WANT.

THAKOON FALL 2011
ONE OF MY FAVORITE LOOKS ALL WEEK. LOVING THE LUMBERJACK FLANNEL CINCHED JACKET WITH LAYERS.

TOMMY HILFIGER FALL 2011
A LITTLE BIT ANNIE HALL AND I LIKE IT.

Just a recap for those of you out there that pay attention to these sort of things. Which shows inspired you?
