Yuna Yang Fall 2010 #NYFW

New York Based Fashion Designer, Yuna Yang showed her collection at an ultra chic art gallery in Chelsea. Despite the cold and gloomy weather, Yang’s Fall/Winter 2010 collection was anything but. The use of rich vibrant colors, bold print and lots of different textures made this collection truly delightful. 

It’s so refreshing to see a collection that ties in color with different textures to create classic yet modern clothing. Yuna’s inspiration for this line was from the 1930’s. She also uses her international experience and her artistic vision to develop a collection with couture quality yet ready-to-wear sensibility. 

This line has everything for the fashion-forward woman who enjoys looking great at work, social events and at play.

Mackage Fall 2010 #NYFW

Mackage was my first official runway show which was held at the Salon in the tents of Bryant Park. This was my first “experience” at the tents and it was not what I expected. When I arrived I was told that I was going to be standing but lucky for me I was able to grab a seat in third row. I’m familiar with Mackage from my good ol days of working retail at Lord & Taylor. I loved it then when it was all heavy $900 puffer jackets and I’m loving now as the company ventures off into women’s and men’s ready to wear. I am not a morning person at all but the collage of tweed and leather sheaths held my attention. The decision to take the Mackage from outerwear and into the fashion retail market was good one. Can’t wait to see what they have in store for spring. On the beauty front, I wish I could have snuck backstage to interview the stylist because the hair and makeup was unlike anything I’ve seen so far. Most of the models worked uneven cropped bobs with hair flowing in front of the face or their long mane was tucked in the collar of the coat. I’m all over this look for fall. There’s something in here for the guys too. Check out the pics below.
