Kendall Jenner and DVF's 'Double Agents' Stormed the Fall Runway

Kendall Jenner and DVF's 'Double Agents' Stormed the Fall Runway:

The show notes for Diane von Furstenberg's fall 2015 collection open with the statement, "By day she commands her world, by night she inspires fantasy... " (signed off by DVF, too, like her tweets.) Basically, the DVF girl for next fall is a "double agent" — masculine meets feminine and ready to be taken seriously by day and definitely have some fun at night. The show was, fittingly, set on a dark runway with an Eastern boudoir feel, further emphasized with sexy red backlighting for mood.

And, yes, Kendall Jenner opened the show, leading the pack in an ivory wool jersey wrap dress with a black ribbon belt, black polka dot tights and open toed platform pumps. The looks that followed fit the double agent agenda: a pinstripe vest and trouser suit set tempered with an ultra-fem pink printed blouse, a rugged-luxe fox fur denim parka layered over a floaty floral wrap dress, an elongated cobalt blue crepe suit with '80s-style ankle zips, a peekaboo red lace shirt dress with a contrast collar and a structured black blazer over a lace-paneled, cut-out romper.

The rest of the model lineup was just as star-studded: Malaika Firth, Binx Walton, Jessica Stam, Fei Fei Sun, Issa Lish, Anna Ewers, Hanne Gaby Odiele, Daria Strokous and Jourdan Dunn — all sauntering down the catwalk with naughty little smirks on their perfect faces.  The front row was full of friends of DVF and celebs, as well: Fran Lebowitz, Rachel Zoe, Coco Rocha, the ubiquitous Kesha, Estelle and vlogger Bethany Mota. "House of DVF" contestant/blogger Kier was also on hand, but taking pics from the third row. (Hopefully no eggs were sold for this trip to Fashion Week.) The show's season one winner and DVF brand ambassador, Brittany, was nowhere to be seen, but maybe she was backstage ordering famous models around.

Of course, the highlight of a DVF show is always when von Furstenberg comes out for her finale walk. This season, von Furstenberg walked out like a champ to the tune of Billy Joel classic, "Always a Woman to Me." The icon looked pretty damn hot (never change, DVF) in a flowy, lipstick and polka dot-printed shirt dress. As usual, she walked the entire way around the U-shaped runway, greeting all her admiring guests along the way.

The Beauty Look at Alexander Wang Was Very Rock n' Roll Vampire

The Beauty Look at Alexander Wang Was Very Rock n' Roll Vampire:

Dismal can be so refreshing sometimes. While so many designers continue to present beauty looks that can be described with words like "natural," "glowing" or "youthful," Alexander Wang again took his girls to the dark side with stringy, damp hair plastered to their foreheads and hollowed-out eyes. And God, did it look good.

We've come to expect certain things from Wang's take on beauty. His recent penchant for bleached brows and slick, wet-looking hair can veer sexy (see: spring 2015) or intimidating (fall 2014), and the results are not always pretty. But this one was, in a kind of gothic, romantic way.

Hairstylist Guido Palau says he was angling for something nocturnal, unconventionally rock and roll, boyish and slightly vampiric. For all of the girls, that meant ample use of Redken's Diamond Oil. Some also got makeovers.

"We dyed four or five girls' hair darker," he said backstage. "Chopped some girls' hair."

Their brows, at least, remained untouched. Lead makeup artist Diane Kendal drew on KISS for inspiration, erring on the pale side for foundation and giving the eyes a shadowy, lived-in quality by applying liner, removing some with a Q-tip and re-emphasizing the lids with grays and browns. (Under-eye bags, by the way, were not the enemy here.)

It really gets you excited for dreary October afternoons, doesn't it?

Altuzarra Unveils His First Handbag Collection at Fashion Week

It took a year for Christopher Kane to release his first handbag line after Kering took a majority stake in his company, and Joseph Altuzarra — who sold a minority stake in his eponymous label to the luxury conglomerate in September 2013 — appears to be on a similar schedule, revealing his first bag collection, dubbed "Notch," at his fall 2015 collection showing on Saturday evening.

The bags, in black, orange and brown leather, as well as navy and burgundy crocodile, came in two styles: a large hobo with a short handle, suitable for carrying a stack of papers and perhaps even a Macbook Air, and a smaller, saddle-shaped shoulder bag, which brought to mind Chloe's popular "Marcie" bag. Both styles were decorated with tassels, braided straps and gold hardware and, on two occasions, studs. Altuzarra seems to have a knack for handbags (as he does for shoes), and I have a feeling his will perform much better at retail than Kane's plainer leather bags with the safety belt clasps.

Attractive though the bags were, the ready-to-wear was still the star of Altuzarra's show. Dandies and Truman Capote's swans — two groups with a mutual love of dressing up — were the starting points for the collection, which opened with a daring pair of golden fox fur collars affixed to a boxy white jacket and brown houndstooth coat, respectively. Altuzarra continued to play up his signature slit skirts, but many of the skirts were, refreshingly, longer, flaring mid-calf over tall studded boots in black or burgundy leather. They were paired with another Altuzarra favorite, shirting, which borrowed from the dandies' selection of tall ruffled collars.

Showgoers seemed particularly taken with the furs, namely the '80s-inspired fox coats in pale pink and blue, but it was the evening dresses — in navy, pale blue and burgundy chiffon with gold sequin embroidery — that were really exceptional, with deep-V necks made modest with white lace shirtfronts and high ruffled necks that matched the shirting. It's been a long time since we've seen such an original idea for an evening dress.

Bandanas Are Making a Comeback for Fall

Bandanas Are Making a Comeback for Fall:

A necklace may be a nice way to play up a dress and a scarf may pull together a more casual outfit, but designers are starting to look to bandanas to liven up their looks this season. Wes Gordon, Coach and Cynthia Rowley have all been on the same wavelength so far for fall by completing looks with a crowning bandana  — or neckerchief, whatever you wish you call it — with each designer choosing to pair the accessory with a skirt or dress. It's worth noting that Stuart Vevers has the leg up on this trend, using it time and time again for Coach (one was paired with almost every look this season), but we must give kudos to Rowley for covering hers in sequins. How chic.

A Festive Front Row At Desigual, Fall 2015

A Festive Front Row At Desigual, Fall 2015:

2015-02-13-KatieHolmesAdrianaLima.jpg




On opening day at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, New York, Katie Holmes and Drake joined Nigel Barker, Catherine Giudici and Langley Fox Hemingway to view Desigual's Fall 2015 collection. Usual fixtures on the runway, Adriana Lima and Harley Viera Newton sat front row to watch fellow models Behati Prinsloo and Chantelle Winnie Harlow dance down the runway in signature styled floral skirts and cocoon coats.



True to form, Desigual made the abstract quite wearable. This season however, brought an enhanced level of production that would entice not only the eccentric, but the sophisticated as well as.
