Peach at Erin Fetherston, Costello Tagliapietra, and Alexander Wang.


Style tip? 
Contrast the softness of the peach color with a pair of edgy shoes, as seen at Costello Tagliapietra and Alexander Wang.  Like all pastel colors, the darker your skin tone, the better the color looks on you.  Beware - if you have super fair skin, peach probably isn’t going to be your color.

Spring 2009 Fashion Week Trend: Black and White Pattern

Black and White Pattern at Carolina Herrera, Preen, and Issac Mizrahi.


Style tip? 
When you limit your color palette to black and white, let loose and go wild with pattern.  No matter how crazy the pattern is, your outfit will still embody a certain elegant graphic sensibility.  Or if you’re not feeling too wild, stick with stripes (a la Carolina Herrera) for a chic, put together look.

Distinctive Belts at Peter Som, Monique Lhuillier, and Marc by Marc Jacobs.


Style tip?  Accessorize without visually cutting your body in two by choosing a belt in a color similar to your dress (as at Peter Som).  Or make a statement with a bold, contrast color belt - or two.

Ombre at Herve Leger, Jonathan Saunders, and Lela Rose.


Style tip?  Ombre has to be one of our favorite trends, right up there with Dresses with Pockets.  It’s such a soothing design detail - reminiscent of seascapes, sunrises, and sunsets, depending on the color palette.  Wear your ombre dress, top, or skirt proudly - show off this gorgeous gradient!
