New Yorks Finest

New York really brought it to the table, hot , steamy and delicious like mommas pie. The theme for this fashion week seems to be celebrating the strength of femininity. Fur made a strong appearance, but not in a 'slap dash' manner, rather it was used thoughtfully to reinforce the concept of femininity. Fur itself is a perfect representation of the elements of a strong woman- what can seem intimidating in presence in reality translates into something that is in reality soft to the touch, beautiful, unique by nature and protecting by function. Now, I don't know if the designers considered all of this when choosing fur ( it is after all Autumn winter) but it was defiantly the right choice for designers Alexander Wang, Donna Karan and Chaudo Ralph Rucci who used fur to accent strong silhouettes.  My personal favourites were Alexander Wang , Donna Karan & Reem Acra who redefined the boundaries femininity, upholding its strength whilst maintaining the trademark of a woman subtle sexuality, routed in confidence and strength.

Alexander Wang

Wang did what we know and love him for, taking geometric and architectural design and making it feminine and beautiful. His pieces communicated strength without compromising desirability. You could imagine a bad ass boss lady wearing the pieces on crowded wall street and standing out equally for strength as femininity.

Donna Karan

Donna Karan shines as she confidently works from a full creative melody of fabrics to create looks that  cleverly show the feminine silhouette ,  not from an over sexual male objective- Donna craftily manages to celebrate the female form from a position of empowerment through beauty.

Reem Acra

Lebanese designer Reem Acra is mainly known for her bridal wear, however there was nothing submissive about this collection. Bold and fiercely beautiful her pieces were made for an individual independent beautiful yet strong woman not unlike Reem herself. The collection juxtaposes embellishment and luxury whilst still maintaining attitude. I love it!
