Lincoln Center

Carolina Herrera
Often it’s the vintage silhouettes and fabrics, tweaked and perfected, that really make a woman feel elegant without effort. And who better to define this feeling than the timelessly chic Mrs. Herrera? A tailored suit, snug at the waist with wide leg pants and a fur collared overcoat is just the thing that made Katherine Hepburn so haute in her heyday, still makes women wild. A 40’s-style floral gown with a keyhole bust and teacup sleeves looks even chicer now than when the style first struck the silver screens. We didn’t ask Mrs. Herrera for her inspiration this season, because isn’t that besides the point? Show us a woman who wouldn’t feel like a zillion bucks showing up anywhere in Herrera. On the mod front: Mrs. H kicked off her Lincoln Center show with Karlie Kloss (flying in on the red eye, straight from the Grammys) and closed with Hilary Rhoda in an emerald green dress and fur. Overall? Divine! How the most elegant woman in fashion manages to never miss a beat is one of fashion’s great mysteries. But we’ll take this melange of bliss and beauty whenever we can get it!

She’s baaaaaaack! After recently announcing that she was going to sit this fashion week out, Betsey Johnson has changed her tune. The designer announced today that she’s returning to Lincoln Center to show her collection on February 11th. Wouldn’t feel like NYFW without a Betsey cartwheel or two.

Like most designers, Tracy Reese is still putting the touches on her Fall 2013 collection, but we definitely know the deal with one look that’s going to be on the runway next month. Reese sent over a sketch of a look for her New York-inspired collection that will show on February 10th at Lincoln Center. Make some room in that closet, Mrs. Obama…

It’s almost that time of year when fashionettes flock to New York City for a glorious week of hitting up shows and decompressing at the subsequent parties (and, for some, posing for street style photogs). The Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week calendar was just posted, and it’s business as usual at Lincoln Center for regular fixtures at the Tents like Diane Von Furstenberg, Carolina Herrera, and Michael Kors.

Just over two weeks until the whirlwind of the Fall 2011 collections begin. Time to start organizing the hours of fashion week frenzy, whether you rely on a Filofax, your iCalendar or your assistant to keep you sane and on time—or fashionably late, if you’re like some designers hot enough to keep the masses waiting season after seaso
