Superstar Designer Narciso Rodriguez, a favorite of Celebrities like Jessica Alba, Reese Whitherspoon, Zoe Saldano, Drew Barrymore, and Sex in the City’s Style Icon Sarah Jessica Parker. So when I had the honor to attend his Fashion Week Presentation at Bryant Park, I thought that I was in for a treat. I assumed that since all of the young and hot free spirits love to wear his designs, that I was in for some fashion inspiration for my closet.
And even though I know that the presentation at Bryant Park was a death of an era, (with Narciso being one of the last designers to show there), it seemed that Narciso Designed his frocks just for the occasion. As one of my blogger buddies put it, “He made clothes to Die in Not to Die for” Most of the line consisted of Drab colors, blacks and browns, and seemed to lack any inspiration for me as a buyer. Not of a fancy department store, but of pieces that would work for me in my closet. And If I were into Goth Wear or in a mourning period, I would definitely reach for these pieces. But As God Is my witness, If ever I need to wear these clothes, Put me in a padded room. And although there were a few pieces with punches of color, they weren’t any cuts, or fits that would qualify them as pieces that were made to enhance the positive aspects of a woman’s physique.
And since Narciso is one of the favorite designers of our First Lady Michelle Obama I was so excited to get the ticket to this show, alas..No…Now I am definitely not a critique but I for sure am a consumer and If I were forced to consume these fashions I would barf it up immediately, But hey don’t take my word for it look at the pics from the show for yourself.
