NY Wraps Up, Ready For London
New York is over, wrapped up with an on-trend live stream finale. Thanks to the Phoebe Philo effect, the week was mostly a rerun/rehash/reinterpretation of Celine's past two seasons. Sure, utility chic seems to be both practical and desirable these days but there were one too many straight lines on the catwalk. Thankfully there were a few exceptions. Separate to the designers we mentioned earlier in the week, here are our favourites from New York.

Australia’s Angel
Another Aussie designer doing the NY schedule is Melbourne expatriate Michael Angel. Prior to his American sojourn in the mid-noughties, Michael was a stylist rebelling against the prevailing attitudes of style at the time, fusing a punk element with sportswear and high fashion.

Front And Back
We first visited London-based, New York-bound designer Graeme Armour at the beginning of the year, with his S/S 2010 collection. Nine months later, with a successful debut season at Bryant Park, Armour returns with another flight into futurism.

New Kid On The Block
It's always exciting to discover something new. New band, new restaurant, new fashion. Just quietly, I quite like being the first to show off such a find to my friends. It's like I'm the only one in the world to know of this obscure personal breakthrough and I must share it with others. Well, Julian Louie is my new find from fashion week.

Rachel Comey
Playful prints are part of Rachel Comey's charm. Abstract geometrics, painterly florals. Bold versus subtle. Her mix of pattern and palette is ingenious.
