I write this whilst sitting
in Balthazar with Danny DeVito on one side with his wife Rhea Perlman ( remember Rita from
Cheers) and Cara Delevinge a couple of
tables down. Yes, it is New York Fashion week and a great time to be in the Big
Apple.
This season it is all about
gold and the model of the moment, Cara was recently spotted in Notting Hill
sporting a Gold Grill before heading over to NY
for the New York Fashion Week.
I have recently viewed some
of the latest catwalk collections and it is very clear from the start that
whatever the style – Gold is in…Diane Von Furstenberg, was one of the first to
hit on the Winter Olympic Sport style gold medals and metals with her iconic
wrap dress leading the way. The Fall Collection 2014 naturally
included plenty of wraps, including ballerina sweaters from which the idea was
actually born, and playful prints from half-moons to ocean waves to gold stars.
Black-and-white continues also to rules this season and fur in all styles hit
the runways.
Tracy
Reese’s collection also focused around the theme of gold in dresses, jewellery
and accessories including sparkles and ostrich feathers. The room was decked
out with sparkles, metallic foil ( another hot item to have in your wardrobe)
and oversized embroidered sweaters as well as rose sequined dresses. To sum it
up, the show was about sequins, sparkles and the season for parties.

Marissa
Webb's Spring 2014 show was a favourite and she too hit on the theme of gold with
high waist skirts to shrink the waistline and boyish shirts. Knotted obi belts
gave tops a peplum look while fitted jackets and tailored tops kept voluminous
blouses in check. Menswear made an appearance too where we saw the trend on
monochromatic button-downs and skinny ties being worn – for men it is all about
the slim fit.
