Day 2 of NYFW: Fringe Fantasy

Fringe hit the runways once again for Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week with a bit of a new season makeover from the shows back in February. Around the waist, around the ankle, and even around the neck, designers like Jason Wu, Ohne Titel, and Marissa Webb redefined the role of fringe from the main attraction to a chic accent.

Styling Diana Taylor for the 2015 Met Gala!

I had the great pleasure of styling Diana Taylor for Anna Wintour's 2015 Met Costume Gala.  After much deliberation over so many beautiful gowns, Diana wore this ink colored “Akira" evening gown by Catherine Deane.  Many thanks to de Grisogono for the gorgeous jewels, to Judith Leiber Couture for the amazing clutch and to Stuart Weitzman for the pyrite strappy heels.  Elated to have styled this wonderful woman for the Oscars of Fashion!
