I take it back...Fall / Winter 2012 rocks. I've seen some amazing collections so far from New York Fashion Week. Some overall themes so far: serious, confident, impeccably tailored / structured, separates, wearable, vampy. My favorite collection so far has to be Prabal Gurung. I have to admit that I was disappointed with his SS 2012 purpley plastic collection; so much so that I didn't even post any pics in the blog. I'm totally blown away by his fall collection though, there are too many pieces that I want! I also really loved Alexander Wang's Hannibal Lector collection, I also thought it was more exciting and wearable than his
sportswear inspired spring collection, with tons of beautiful and typically Alexander Wang pieces, from the drapey yet body conscious dresses to some lovely structured pieces like that awesome motorcycle jacket. I liked Jason Wu's collection so much more than his
Target collaboration; it was a lot less matronly with some bold and sexy pieces. I also liked Altuzarra's collection: super wearable and cool; I first took notice of him last season and there are quite a few pieces that I would totally wear from his collection this season.

On a separate note, I'm so excited to see all these unbelievable Asian American designers, particularly Taiwanese-American (Alexander Wang, Jason Wu), and so happy for their success. Also, not fashion related, but totally happy for Jeremy Lin of the NY Knicks. Represent!
