NYFW - RTW Fall'07 - 3rd Day

Today is the 3rd day of The New York Fashion Week. The day was very productive since 14 designers graced the runway with their creations, same amount as the first 2 days combined! These designers were:

Abaeté
DKNY
Dvf
Erin Featherston
Lela Rose
Luella
M. Williamson
Naum
Réyes
Sari Gueron
3.1 phillip lim
Tracy Reese
Tuleh
United Bamboo

After seeing all the shows I've got to say that I am very satisfied with today's collections. Overall, the shows were amazing in comparison to yesterday which was extremely disappointing. Some of the common denominators where the use of color black, white, red and earth tones, 60's shapes (especially in dresses) and mod prints. Splashes of color were present, blue, yellow, red, shocking pink and even aqua blue popped up here and there in some of the collections and the use of black and white in very graphic pieces was seen almost everywhere.

The king of the day was undoubtedly Phillip Lim. The execution was flawless, uber-stylish yet so wearable. Lim used very rich textures (by layering) and fabrics with a bit of a mod vibe. The collection was so beautiful some of the pieces could easily belong to a couture collection. 3.1 by Phillip Lim is my favorite so far.
