As a designer I am always eager to see what's happening in NY Fashion Week. It's almost more interesting to see what gets publicized because those are the most outrageous, most popular, most mainstream, most boring or most something! Many of the outfits we see from fashion week are unwearable but rather art. That's fine. I have always been a fan of Marc by Marc Jacobs. I find this Marc Jacobs line to be the most wearable, and still unique and stylish. Also Marc Jacobs usually thanks his team. Here are a few shots from this season's fashion week which is Spring 14 ready to wear.

There was a lot of mens and womens clothes mimicking each other, with plenty of suit styling to choose from.

One thing I did notice and probably because I recently just read an article in the NY Times is that there were not a whole lot of models of color. A little disappointing since Marc Jacobs has the clout to be a leader.

I will finish with one of my faves, a top to be worn by itself or with jeans. I will never tire of stars!

What are your thoughts on the Fashion Week for Spring 14? Did you read the NY Times article on models of color?

Op art is hot for Spring 13. Mod, monochrome, A-line, checkerboard and bee hive hairdos! Marc Jacobs seems to out do himself every time for Louis Vuitton. H&M is sure to have similar apparel for those of us who can't afford the brilliant Marc Jacobs.
