New York Fashion Week - Spring 2011 Goes Nude

All the swirls of nudes and blacks whipping up New York Fashion Week is making me crave for cookies and cream ice-cream.

Just 5 years back, I would never have thought myself spending 30 minutes flipping through Herve Leger's collection. Back then, there were only a few things I looked for in "good designers" - "Dark", smart tailoring, and dramatic appeal. That's why my projects always revolved around John Galliano, Ann Demeulemeester, and the late Alexander Mcqueen.

But today, I can unabashly declare that I'm beginning to appreciate the likes of Herve Leger and Tory Burch.

The neutral shades along with beautiful line-works and carefully paired fabrications brought out the extra touch in his range of flowy dresses.

At the Spring 2011 fashion shows, Leger wasn't the only one going all-naturale. Marchesa displayed a range of well-draped tulle gowns while Jenny Packham did hers in embellished sheer fabrics.
