Saying that, there have been some lines that I could not covet more. I want and need them equally. The work of such inspiring artists. I will do you the honor of sharing my thoughts.
Tadashi Shoji
Completely nailed the crush velvet that is typically a painful 90s flashback. His work is elegant and organic and it moves so gracefully. Here are some of my favorites.
Susan Woo
Sleek, tailored, gorgeous. Such a beautiful lineup from Susan Woo this season.
But her models look so sad. I just want to hug them. Then shove food in their mouths.
would I steal this jacket off a stranger passing by? yes, yes I would.
Carolina Herrera
This is a surprise entry for me because I have never been on the Herrera praise train. Her dresses are pretty, but expected and boring. Ball gowns in different colors with lots of tulle.
But not this season. Damn.
1940's influence, beautiful silhouettes, perfect fit, no ball gowns in sight- I'm on the train. Riding up with the conductor. Pulling the choo-choo cord. Mary Murphy would be so proud.
i could go on so many adventures in this dress.
Gaaaaah. So pretty.
Other than those three, it's been a week of "moments". So far- there are three days left. Most lines have had one piece that surpasses all the rest, but as a whole, weak collections. The ones I've been most excited to see have been the big let downs.
Christian Siriano took "the Golden age of the Russian opera" waaaay too literally. Though he had a nice moment with this piece.
Zach Posen had the weird fabric problem leaving his line feeling very heavy and matronly. Like this tragic piece:
Victoria Beckham was predictable. With a few nice moments:
Altuzarra created this piece that I think is so fantastic:
Jason Wu. Eh. These were nice:
And I really loved and this jacket by Heather Lawton

Not all these pieces will you like. But fashion is art. And art is subjective.
That, my friends, is the recap of the moment. We will have a part two. Don't you worry.
