New York Fashion Week FW12: Prabal Gurung, Diane von Furstenberg, Jason Wu

By -
Who: Prabal Gurung
What it made us think of: A superhero who is being tempted by evil but eventually chooses to use her powers for good.
What we liked: Everything.
Who: Diane von Furstenberg
What it made us think of: It was classic DvF, but this time the designer got playful with puzzle prints, clocks, lips and hands.
What we liked: The fun prints, the quirky clutches, classic dresses, bright colors
What we didn't: Baggy at the hips jumpsuits, sporty details on otherwise classic coats
Who: Jason Wu
What it made us think of: The Asian and military influences reminded me of a Modern Mulan.
What we liked: beautiful brocades (mixed with sporty quilting), buttons, tassel earrings, belts
What we didn't: Furry arms, costume-y hats

Thank you 3.1 Philip Lim! You've appeased my co-desires for wearability and an edge of funk. Love the ruffled sequin tops. Love the layered zips. Love the ruffled shoes. The shoes!!! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Anna Sui was fabulous Anna Sui with all the prints and colors and tribal influences. Of course, I'm biased in favor of anything that looks like a hippie-gypsy-pirate. Happy! Happy! Again, the shoes are amazing. Kudos to her also for sending out happy models, because smiling should never be out of fashion.Vera Wang, always one of my favorites, was just as sleek, romantic and modern as I would hope. I always like her neutral palette with occasional splashes of color. She used lots of sheer fabrics in this collection, but it's more ethereal than daring. The shiny details also keep things exciting.

Wrap yourself in a robe fit for a mythical, magical creature or don some perfect unicorn socks.

Travel in style, unicorn style, with this standout carry-on and some rainbow-colored glasses sure to outdo any ro…
