fashion blab: fall 2012 - drenched in black

Go ahead and disregard my previous post regarding my efforts to incorporate more color into my wardrobe. I could not be more please with the amount of black that came down the runway at NYFW 2012. Designers such as Prabal Gurung and Kimberly Ovitz created awesome looks complete with only one color. The use of different textures, fabrics, and lines gave way to interesting and appealing looks despite the singular color.

  I am absolutely obsessed with Prabal Gurung's lace and feather dress over black slacks. 

Bill Blass played with a lot of different textures to create these structured and straight foward looks. 

 DKNY kept with their tradition, and used feminine silhouettes and wide belts to create a very attractive and slim figure. 

 I LOVE Monique Lhuillier's Fall 2012 RTW line. Her throwback collection was definitely darker than usual, which only added to the crazy sexiness of all of the pieces. Hints of leg, sheer fabrics, and sleek silhouettes seemed to be underlying tones of the collection.
