New York Fashion Week II

So, here is a round up of some of my favourite looks from the snow filled fashion week that was New York… Aside from some great outfits below, in all my trawling of the Internet for show photos and street style photos, a couple of things sprang to mind…

1. Are most of the shows in NYFW a little too small still to attract the names on the street (e.g. Giovanna Battaglia, ADR, CR, Miss Issa etc.) and that’s why they have been near impossible to find, OR

2. do snow friendly outfits not really make great shots and hence the shortage of good street style shows…

I believe it is in fact a combo of the two, with point 2 re-affirming my frustrations with London winters and the length and depths of them… by month FIVE we all have coat and tights fatigue and do I really have to buy another pair of cool but warm but practical boots that go with everything???

Secondly, we have seen magazines give way to blogs, give way to street style, to personal style, to tumblr, to glossy half yearly fashion books (ahem Ms Roitfeld)… what is next? … The variety of looks below show that full blown ‘trends’ are over.. When it comes to fashion, have we come full circle to needing to be told again? do we want to collaborate? Emulate?Any ideas?

Some of the best looks (and this is way before I trawl through Oscar De La Renta.. beautiful collection worthy of an entire other post..
