New York Fashion Week :: Nanette Lepore [The ZOO]

Nanette Lepore :: Fall 2006

Edwardian England set the backdrop for the Nanette Lepore show this season. The collection included Lepore's menswear inspired wool suitings and youthful feminine dresses. Tweeds and plaids were mixed in with floral blouses and embroidered sweaters. Silk satin dresses came in polka dots and foulard prints, while evening wear seemed to reminisce in that 1940's starlet trend we've been seeing. Gowns came in velvet, gunmetal lame, and chiffon. The colors were vibrant reds and blacks for the most part, but it did start to look a little like Christmas when those red velvet dresses came down the runway. [Rania Abu Eid]
