The runway shows may be over, but the collections live on. Here are my top five favorites from Fall/Winter 09:
Elie Saab
The “New Glamour” Movement
Saab provided us with the same Hollywood glamour, minus last year's bling.
ADAM by Adam Lippes
The American Dream
It was a gorgeous game of tug-of-war: Glitzy versus Tough.
Giambattista Valli
Memories of YSL
Valli was inspired "by Yves Saint Laurent—but more his lifestyle than his fashion."
Balmain
80’s Revival – Done Right
Despite the criticism he received from others, I firmly stand by Christophe Decarnin's optimistic, powerful attitude for Fall 2009.
Dsquared2
Hi/Lo Sidewalk Chic
Dsquared2 taught the world how to mix it up. The fabulous duo combined high fashion with more casual elements.
