Ports 1961

“Traditional with a modern spin” is what designer, Tia Cibani brought to her Fall 2010 Collection as she looked to capture the tension between nature and technology on the runway. Whites, nudes, purple hues and greys were mixed in a array of textures such as satin, wool, tweed and rubber accents.  Highlight of the collection included  a waist-belted nude trench coat, with rubber accents and a wool black vest that shagged on the model in perfect symmetry.

Christian Siriano

Inspired by his a vision of European women in the 60s, Christian Siriano took the catwalk for the 4th time, post Project Runway, with a more subtle approach to his collection than last season. A black leather tailored jacket paired with a black pencil skirt is how Siriano chose to launch this fall line, continuing along those note for most of the show. Towards the finale, berry hues came in abundance, complemented by metallic detailing and soft materials. And of course he couldn’t resist including a couple statement glamour pieces, closing his show with out there gowns.
