NYFW SS10 Day Five

Marc Jacobs

A circus of pale-faced performers pranced down the runway to showcase Marc's spring collection. Many a wacky and wonderful outfit ensued: High fuffle necks with short runched skirts, dewy pastel silk dresses seemingly constructed from teardrops and a barely there translucent dress which gave the impression that it had materialised from the beginnings of a sketch. The playful cutouts and embelished bodices added some glitz to the mix and I can't wait to see some closeups of the handbags! Snakeskin, spots, straps and stings - oh Marc, stop giving! This was one show I really didn't want to end!

Zac Posen

It was a kaleidoscope of colour at Zac Posen's early morning show. Zac took a trip down memory lane, reviving the 60s shift dress with striking shades and avant-garde accessories and fanning the 80s flare with furry accompaniments. Patterns were plentiful with everything from geometric blocks to horizontal stripes, swirly prints to flashy flowers. Zac produced a collection of fun, bright pieces sure to turn heads at any party!

Donna Karan


A flurry of whispy neutrals and structual solids floated down the runway at Donna Karan's show. Simple dresses were upgraded with undulating details while silk swirled freely from beneath drawstring ties. Donna gave the body con look a tiny tweak, further enhancing the waistline with dainty belts. Strappy sandals and slick side-part bobs completed the look radiating a sophisticated and refined aura.
