BEST IN SHOW: New York

Among other things, NY Fashion Week has become an international forum for designers to display representations and evolving interpretations of American fashion. While men's fashion has taken a turn for the traditional, the up and coming women's designers are taking some risks and redefining Americana along the way.

The Spring/Summer 2010 collections featured aquatic references from Proenza Schouler, stage beauty at Marc Jacobs, and Alexander Wang's take on downtown sportswear. While perhaps not the most wearable collection, my favorite look for the season came from the Mulleavy sisters at Rodarte. This post-apocalyptic trip to Death valley features next level textile combinations, warrior arm bands and dresses dripping with wool. What more can you ask for?
