There were alluringly wrapped day dresses, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">chain and puzzle print designs, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">elegant coats and pencil skirts, with long leather gloves and clutch bags to polish it off. Diane </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">formed a harmonious alliance by </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">brazenly marrying bright hues together. Plum and lime, chartruese and fuchsia, red and azure, all bound by wide leather belts.</span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Giulietta</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9cc5azrbm2pXuzfB_wp6v0x2w2tJGxpJjuJpD3pP2tBeQzhGh-sK68C09YEa0zHlrtqqhk6g8wYTmHW-_aZGOPJEF5cYcX9mP5ADVoNPVc-Ov4RssUA0kCsZJVsyywxpMztpNu02uQcJE/s1600/nyfwgiulietta.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9cc5azrbm2pXuzfB_wp6v0x2w2tJGxpJjuJpD3pP2tBeQzhGh-sK68C09YEa0zHlrtqqhk6g8wYTmHW-_aZGOPJEF5cYcX9mP5ADVoNPVc-Ov4RssUA0kCsZJVsyywxpMztpNu02uQcJE/s640/nyfwgiulietta.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Newcomer <i>Giulietta</i> sang a song from the 'Sound of Music' it seemed, in charming prim and proper frocks, with a hint of school-girl innocence. The lightness of fabric and softer shades in this collection was welcomed after the other 'heavier' ones shown at NYFW. Peter pan collars, the pussycat bow and square-buckled belts were a continual motif throughout the range.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Nanette Lepore</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglwkDGson32xCiWrWfxWFBN-98H5wK_PNx8aM9fmpzzJKGcsetxFyqeFfuBjli2Q0DkxSVk8Et5i3ff6mOwjgVk8c5UkanFVQawy-QZeC3IwqTQMEh5130wMcOKLyrZKNlPx4mAls9WfUM/s1600/nyfwnanette.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglwkDGson32xCiWrWfxWFBN-98H5wK_PNx8aM9fmpzzJKGcsetxFyqeFfuBjli2Q0DkxSVk8Et5i3ff6mOwjgVk8c5UkanFVQawy-QZeC3IwqTQMEh5130wMcOKLyrZKNlPx4mAls9WfUM/s640/nyfwnanette.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Nanette Lepore</i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> dipped her collection in a paint tin of festive colours for Fall 2012. Bright burnt orange, mulberry, fern green, cerulean blue and chartreuse. The designer cited "dandyism, a deck of tarot cards and Oscar Wilde" as influences. It is a gypsy tonic of trippy prints, skinny velvet pants, artsy blouses and floaty embroidered dresses. Glossy metallic loafers and satchel bags accessorized this beaded bohemian range. </span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Nicole Miller</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkjl5eBvjuxBq5xiSsM3Iv-dLBdKRvR0jmO50gLSuodvpepxbAPAYffWj4pAPG1c6-B9epvSRiMrEXWdY-LUiMxB1N1pt_jfdEV9izGfFA5XR7oNAts7fiu5mPm4wZlh5oCtLLWha51rii/s1600/nyfwmiller.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkjl5eBvjuxBq5xiSsM3Iv-dLBdKRvR0jmO50gLSuodvpepxbAPAYffWj4pAPG1c6-B9epvSRiMrEXWdY-LUiMxB1N1pt_jfdEV9izGfFA5XR7oNAts7fiu5mPm4wZlh5oCtLLWha51rii/s640/nyfwmiller.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Nicole Miller</i> introduces us to the haute hippie rock chick for Fall 2012, and I couldn't be more pleased. A more refined take on 70's fashion with floaty silk blouses worn under oversized vests, unmissable floral prints in vivid shades, cigarette pants and bell bottoms, all spawned from luscious velvets, furs and suede. Satchel bags, wide-brim floppy hats and circle-chain belts perfectly punctuated the retro look.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Oscar de la Renta</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiImqjAcVOOWibzjIJ1ByGwQPddr1y9yEpgOAkgSfCIdXxUy_QDv5vV1ac1gv8Z3Fb8gJ6WYXNuDoLXvIkO7TF7JcCCeaxBrXyCaTz5wbcR8-Jwp_pqvrwmq4shEaOJtP4odDwpsOgrdHkr/s1600/nyfwoscardelarenta.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiImqjAcVOOWibzjIJ1ByGwQPddr1y9yEpgOAkgSfCIdXxUy_QDv5vV1ac1gv8Z3Fb8gJ6WYXNuDoLXvIkO7TF7JcCCeaxBrXyCaTz5wbcR8-Jwp_pqvrwmq4shEaOJtP4odDwpsOgrdHkr/s640/nyfwoscardelarenta.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Pastel pink and powder blue had their moment in the spotlight at <i>Oscar de la Renta's</i> Fall showing. I had long forgotten the slew of black and white outfits after the first celestial blue dress hit the runway. Frothy little frocks with puffy skirts and 60's styling conveyed a certain girlish glamour. Jewel and fur accents added a more grown-up feel to the doll-house dresses. </span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Sophie Theallet</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3fuwm7cB3ktCfSJdhO7NIo1gJCM35P9JaKh-KOqbaABTMJCOjcn6cPQW73ScTQDFyOUdwvmt1SJkM_7sM4GIjD8r-zgWEDojk2cPLu21xq1gJH35RxEBl-4Bx5W-hh80Pabq5DAffes3f/s1600/nyfwsophie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3fuwm7cB3ktCfSJdhO7NIo1gJCM35P9JaKh-KOqbaABTMJCOjcn6cPQW73ScTQDFyOUdwvmt1SJkM_7sM4GIjD8r-zgWEDojk2cPLu21xq1gJH35RxEBl-4Bx5W-hh80Pabq5DAffes3f/s640/nyfwsophie.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There was a boho-vintage vibe at <i>Sophie Theallet's </i>Fall offering, with a prominence of silky upholstery prints in spicy cinnamon, fuchsia, rust and purple plum.

Long wrap dresses with thigh-high slits alluded to demure sensuality, while A-line skirts and clashing prints provided a more playful look.  </span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Suno</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3R6r3JlZxkVxN6Cg3AsryeT4_z4zicwE0RNln3ivr4qve4pdAjTxkXe9ASrdqynJbgaCQjtu82xJ9zmqev2OVNCpjsWFqux95VGMpVlLW8no7LcwCPvxk92RwwHtn3-FfCLAlgXIetHuJ/s1600/nyfwsuno.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3R6r3JlZxkVxN6Cg3AsryeT4_z4zicwE0RNln3ivr4qve4pdAjTxkXe9ASrdqynJbgaCQjtu82xJ9zmqev2OVNCpjsWFqux95VGMpVlLW8no7LcwCPvxk92RwwHtn3-FfCLAlgXIetHuJ/s640/nyfwsuno.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i> Suno</i> brings prints to the forefront of Fall 2012, valiantly mismatching them, coloring them in with an Autumn breeze and even naming them!

Divas and Darlings - Baftas 2012

All the pieces are wearable and somewhat safe, if not for the dash of leopard print. There is a richness to this range, provided by luxurious fabrics like fur, satin, tweed and lace, with a scattering of sequins. It's nice to see that flats and kitten heels stand their ground against sky high heels.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtDJ1MWOTe8US7l5okTriMA6sIxmnU_4-6JtVpfprz-a4mhCChZSeyff6-suDEWHWXPnTWrNeXZkpEI8X8KdddeorEczGYJFuh4ty_sAFej3OlDPMSmmoIor5U9RGe-p4iaQIMObHZuSM/s1600/oscar+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtDJ1MWOTe8US7l5okTriMA6sIxmnU_4-6JtVpfprz-a4mhCChZSeyff6-suDEWHWXPnTWrNeXZkpEI8X8KdddeorEczGYJFuh4ty_sAFej3OlDPMSmmoIor5U9RGe-p4iaQIMObHZuSM/s640/oscar+.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The violet satin heels will add a lovely pop of colour to a neutral coloured outfit.
