Best of Fall 2012 Ready-to-Wear (New York)- Part I

Jenni Kayne
Jenni Kayne's Fall 2012 collection had a nice proper English menswear feel. It featured tweeds and herringbones, perfect for fall and winter. The leather top is also a cool addition to a tweed coat and pants.

3.1 Phillip Lim
Phillip Lim's collection was very sleek and modern featuring dark vs. light. The knitted black and white dress puts a whole new edge on ski-chic. 

J.Mendel 
J. Mendel always has one of the top 3 collections of New York fashion week, in my opinion. The way he uses fur and makes gowns is amazing. He uses always the most beautiful fabrics with the most intricate details. This collection had nice soft colors and feminine shapes. Gowns were plentiful with beading and charmeuse. I love it. 
Proenza Schouler
Lazaro and Jack always use a plentiful amount of color with interesting silhouettes. Their fall collection is no exception. They were very creative, using boxy white shapes at first then quickly transformed into bold blues and reds with new formed jackets and quilted skirts, and then later had some multicolored kimono-inspired prints. 

        
Rachel Zoe
The stylist has really made a name for herself as a designer quickly! Her fall collection was so wonderfully chic! The separates and button down dresses reminds me of Melanie Griffith in Working Girl. Her evening wear was just as genius, featuring sequined dresses for a night out dancing or a white wrapped gown for more formal event. These pieces will have to be added to my closet.
