I <3 Fashion Week.... This is crazy- but I' don't hate any of your faves, CG! I  haven't gone through all the shows yet, but I've decided to make a posts instead of waiting til I'm out of this sensory overload to make one post that will probably end up long, confusing, and tangential.

So maybe I've mentioned this before, but when I see something fashionable that I adore, I will save it to a folder that I have titled 'I wish' and have made a slide show of those pictures  my screen saver. So that said, I usually go through and find the highest number of saves per show and voila- those are my favorite shows. So far, my top contenders are as follows:

Luca Luca (5 looks saved)
This wasn't anything that new, but it was very 'spring'. I  loved the dresses, patterns, and colors. To me, it was like Ralph Lauren meets Banana Republic.
  Monique Lhuilleir (5 looks saved)
 Beautiful tailoring and very ladylike.
Wayne (5 looks saved)
This is my top fave so far. The show was cohesive, interesting, wearable, and incredibly chic. American sportswear meets dominatrix without losing any femininity. In all that, it still also spoke Spring with the layers, textures and colors.
As for the rest of my saves, it's a hodgepodge of what I found were really great looks or ideas, but stemming from shows that were overall not that great for me. Here's some of my favorite stand-alones:

Nicolas K-  (left)
Reminded me of a spring version of Burberry's fall show, with the staple styling of the jacket and the combat boots. The white dress adds softness to it.
Steven Alan- 
This look is one of those effortlessly put-together ones that I strive for. It has all my current favorites: the Slouchy beach sweater, nude heels, and a hat.
Jen Kao- (left) If Rodarte had gone more in this direction, it probably would have gotten a few saves for me. The model is beautiful and it looks as though this dress was made specifically for her body. I liked a lot of the other pieces in the show, but this was one of the only stand-outs.
Dennis Brasso- 
Wow. There are no words for this dress. So pretty. Reminds me of the one CG posted that Sara Jessica Parker was wearing.

The others that I liked included (of course) Michael Kors (the green pants), ADAM (every sleeveless top/tailored high-waisted pant combo), and Malandrino (the wide-leg trousers).
