Rebecca Moses' model presentation on Thursday managed to be creative and light without the aftertaste of kitschy. The music was reminiscent of a French café, in the summer, while you are enjoying a glass of wine before noon subsidized by your tragically French boytoy of the moment.

The large faux books lining the walls made this true life fairytale, filled with cutely tailored mini skirt-suits and romantically draped dresses, all the more romantic. Lets just say if all books were this fun I would have spent more time in the library… actually reading… oppose to other fun things one can do in the library…… Merci Ms. Moses.

Last season, ANN YEE was touted as the newest expert in androgyny, softening men's silhouettes with rich, more luxuriant fabrics. Daily Candy applauded the Nolita-based designer for offering an assertive, yet sexy alternative to the unfortunately common Oliver Twist-effect.

For Spring 2011, YEE took her story one step further, as the trending morning-after look found its way into ION Studios on Monday evening.

Models, donning over-sized sunglasses and loose layers, propped themselves against the walls of the studio. As we casually sipped our wine, the models stood chatting and laughing to one another, making the presentation seem more like a Saturday evening at Goldbar.

But what better way to display a collection of relaxed vest frocks, boyfriend-style button-downs, and silk drawstring jumpsuits? In a sun-washed palate of muted earth-tones, ANN YEE turned androgynous into simple nonchalance.
