I’m Over It: Hervé Léger Bandage Dresses

The minute , fashion designer and founder of , decided to reinvent the Hervé Léger bandage dress, he gave women everywhere the biggest excuse to hide their flaws and still look like a goddess. It didn’t matter if you had love handles, a little chub around the middle or saggy boobs, the Hervé Léger bandage dress could suck you in, prop you up and give you that perfect figure. Now, I’m not saying that women with a little extra meat on their bones shouldn’t look slim and stunning when they go out, I’m just saying that the Hervé Léger bandage dress is everywhere, and it has to go. I am so sick of seeing these bands of fabric wrapped around women, sucking in every last bit, until they look like the sickly 2006 version of . And to make matters worse, it is annoying to see women with knockout bodies and amazing style (aka ) wear something so common and completely not necessary for their body type. Please ladies, save the bandages for the boo boos or the Spring 2009 mummy trend.

New York Fashion Week: Accessory Rundown

Sarafpour Hair/

 

I have been keeping tabs on all the runway shows this week. I must say that some are phenomenal, and others, not so special. But the accessories used on the Spring 2009 runways have exceeded all expectations. Now I have something to look forward to during the horrendous winter.

Monique Lhuillier necklace

Mizrahi hair

 

Marc by Marc Jabobs showed an amazing belt. Or was it a fanny pack? Well, this fanny-belt is as functional as it is fashionable. It’s a different approach on the overdone, neon, kindergarten fanny. Halston showed a great, double wrap belt in a gorgeous tanned leather.It looks ordinary, but the way it matches the bag really works. Could cutting matching accessories from the same hide be a new trend for spring?

Halston Beltbag

Halston had great bags. From leather to bright, crazy prints, they have something for everyone to tote through the city streets. Derek Lam showed notable bags as well…I’m a sucker for the white ones with really good hardware. Monique Lhuillier showed a vibrant coral necklace with a subdued evening gown. The contrast gave her collection a classic, but edgy look.
 
The - Oh the !! These were the best I’ve seen in awhile. MaxAzria showed his collection of flowing dresses with sandals that tightly wrapped around the ankle. Hanii Y’s pointed, lace-up flats in white, black and metallic silver were my favorites. They tied the collection together extremely well, along with pastel scarves. The models wore on Abaeté’s runway that brought out the bad girl in her collection. Matthew Williamson showed amazing multi-colored platforms. They complemented his collection well, along with smokey eyes and stick-straight hair.
 
Hair and was anywhere from whimsical to old Hollywood to completely crazy. I love a good wig, so made my day with candy-colored bobs topped with fantastic bowlers. Isaac Mizrahi glammed-up his collection by taking a classic hairdo and making it modern. Behnaz Sarafpour summoned my inner fairy with ethereal metallic and heads covered with garden flowers.
 
This spring will be about making a statement on top of a statement. Or are these accessories fab enough to stand on their own? Basically, I think anything will go for spring ‘09; my feet couldn’t be more ecstatic!

Max Azria Channels Van Gogh

According to style.com, designer Lubov Azria drew inspiration for the 2009 Resort Collection from her recent honeymoon to a remote island paradise. But, upon closer inspection, the gauzy abstract dresses look less like a deserted island and more like timless paintings.
