New York Fashion Week Underway

Fashion Week for Fall 2006 is officially underway in New York
and it seems like dark colors dominate this year. Tailored 30's and 40's
styles seem to dominate work weark, while Asian-inspired motifs and
geometric prints are the basis of casual wear.

Standouts so far come from Tuleh and Gen Art, with some of the most
whimsical and feminine designs. Usual suspects like Nicole Miller fell
a little short this season on originality, but came through for tried and true styles.
