NY Fashion Week Recap: Fall 2014 Herve Leger

Hello Readers!

This weekend was such an inspirational event! My cousin and his wife were in town and she invited me to a fashion show at Lincoln Square. She works for BCBG Max Azria and took me to a Herve Leger show (pronounced air-vay lay-jay). Let me tell you, this experience was by far so incredible. Sarah has an amazing fashion career that seems like you only see in the movies. I'm sure like every other job, it has it's ups and downs, but this was so dream-like. It didn't actually hit me until I crossed the street and saw Lincoln Square for the first time.

I'm a New York newbie, let me feel how I'm feeling, ok? As I walked thru Lincoln Square, I glanced at all the woman posing outside in their extravagant and unique ensembles striking a pose. These women are the photos I've seen since I was in high school reading and tearing out pages in Bazaar and Vogue only to just imagine what it could be like.

As we walked in, there were guards at the door watching every move you made. It was dark inside and seeing the designers show names in classic black and white made it mysterious and sophisticated, yet exciting. You could feel the excitement in the air before the show, the energy is so vamped up you can hardly stand it. My cousin couldn't have put it into better words " It's like the  Super Bowl for woman".  He clearly hit the head on the nail.

People watching is such an event in itself. Looking at all the new fashion statements people where making made it art for the eye. We then had to wait in anticipation a little while longer before they let us into the showroom.

Patience as you may know is not my best asset, but some things are worth waiting for. As a large crowd was lead in, I poked my head around to the right and noticed a swarm of press and photographers at the end of the catwalk. I've never seen anything like it. As people were finding their seats, I noticed Coco Rocha in a black brimmed hat speaking to the press. Then, Jesse Metcalf casually grazes my shoulder. Is this real life?

As everyone slowly takes their seats, the lights dim and the music starts. One model after the other comes down the catwalk with a look of fierce in her eyes. I noticed the hot color schemes for  Fall 2014 were cool shades of blue, black and grey. These are then accompanied by luminous orange and a splash of lime. If your feeling a little funky, try dying a strand of hair electric blue or tangerine orange. As odd as thats seems, the models really pulled it off. Cage corsets belts and metal beading on the bandage dresses were show stopping. The Arctic furs and thigh high boots screamed fearless and confident. Max Azria knows how to make a woman feel sexy and sophisticated.  What an experience, I'm living my bucket list! Thanks again, Sarah!
