Versace Pre-Fall 2011 - Collections

Versace, in this pre-fall collection, hits several notes, so does model Kasia Struss. 

 In my opinion the collection seems to be coming from several different points of view (meaning several different design aesthetics), you have fall colors such as red, navy and black, but the patterns suggest more of a spring feel with animal print, and metallic fabrics. Some of the silhouettes are daring and sexy, while still maintaining conservativeness. 

A outre combination of sex, power & high-style, what can be better than that?

Here are my favorite looks:

New York Fashion Week S/S 2011 - Live Streams (Extensive Research)

As New York Fashion Week awaits it's Spring-Summer 2011 shows at the new location that is Lincoln Center - say goodbye to the famed white tents of Bryant Park. Personally, I was a bit shocked, I heard the news from Heidi Klum - no, not face to face - but from the first episode of Project Runway. The white tents were a tradition - I want to see the tents being set up when I attend fashion week in the near future, but fashion changes ever so speedily forward.
