Morning shows midweek attract an interesting and unusually devoted crowd. Though the Salon was just barely at capacity for the Nanette Lepore runway show, the air was still buzzing with anticipation of upcoming shows and gossip from the week gone by.
Grounded in a palette of black, merlot and rose, the collection was as bouncy and youthful as the music. Bold outerwear, flirty dresses and feminine suiting separates were dusted with metallic and lace accents. Winning accessories included rhinestone tiaras, vintage brooches, rouched leather gloves and glowing smiles from the models.
On each guest's seat was an inspired plea from Ms. Lepore for NYC designers to write Mayor Bloomberg and ask for his assistance in saving the struggling Garment District. Washington Style Reporter is an enthusiastic supporter of utilizing local resources and of American-made products, and we hope that more collections take advantage of this in the future.
