From Jill Stuart's dark florals to the visually stunning work of Christian Cota, Loden Dager's bright colours to Prabal Gurung's dark decadence, there was something for everyone on day three in New York.
On a sticky Saturday morning, with heavy rain and humidity that turned ponytails into pom poms, the Lacoste show kicked off a long weekend of celebrity sightings.
Kris Humphries, the Nets player and famous Kim Kardashian ex, made it to Lincoln Center just before the downpour started. He was dressed in a red plaid button-down, worn open, a gray T-shirt and slim jeans.
Front row was only part of the draw. Liberty Ross didn’t just step out after the Kristen Stewart scandal. She stomped down the runway modeling a cool white ensemble by the designer. Other light-colored pieces were literally glow-in-the-dark.
Luckily, the weather turned on Sunday and the fashion flock woke up to gentle breezes and crisp autumn sunshine. In women’s wear, the day picked up speed at Lincoln Center. There were lots of girl-next-door types: Lauren Conrad, Katie Lee and Shenae Grimes.
While the shows were great to follow, some of the best moments were simply focused on observing how the models prepped, the diverse food offered at nearby restaurants, and the energy everyone felt as viewers themselves as if they were representing the catwalk.
