Why don't more people wear masks? Maybe I'll start that.

Paging SWINTON.
threeASFOUR - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
PAGING SWINTON.
threeASFOUR - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
PAGING... wait, no, I think I want to see SWINTON's face. PAGING KIM KARDASHIAN.

This is actually beautifully, intricately made. It's NUTBALLS -- suddenly I have "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" in my head -- but it's beautiful.
Vera Wang - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Are you kidding me, Vera Wang?
Vera Wang - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
We saw Viola Davis at this show and I of course deeply hope she selects this for the Oscars.
Vera Wang - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Pretty elements here, but Vera was ALL about nudity this season. Which might work for audience member Leighton Meester but...
Vera Wang - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
This is for when you get really EXPENSIVE x-rays.
Vera Wang - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
This just looks like... I mean, you can see her crotch, and then you pull back and she's wearing a flesh-colored pelvis. It's like a claymation groin.
Rodarte - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
I call this, "Listen, I have toddlers, leave me alone."
Proenza Schouler - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
This is really cool, though.
Proenza Schouler - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Proenza did a lot of blue and orange in their collection. I've decided it's because they love Tim Tebow and he went to Florida.
Proenza Schouler - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
I don't know what's going on here, though, but I don't have thigh hopes for it HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA, oh, it's lovely to be a hack.
Anna Sui - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
One year Jessica wore a knit hat with cat ears on it to Fashion Week, which a friend made her to order, and people occasionally looked at her like she was insane. Anna Sui would have understood.
Ports 1961 - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
I call this the Posture Killer.
Ports 1961 - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Well.... the purse is good. The rest is like a knit body condom.
Philosophy Di Alberta Ferretti - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
So gorgeous.
Nanette Lepore - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Nanette was super bright and cheerful -- that show and DKNY, since they're more attainable for a girl like me, always make me want to run right out and shop.
Nanette Lepore - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
I like the beading on the skirt.
Nanette Lepore - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
She also showed a lot of gold lame, and Jessica loved this blouse, because in her words, "You know how I love a kooky blouse."
Sophie Theallet - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
I like this. She looks a bit swaddled, but in a fun way.
Narciso Rodriguez - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Cute! Narciso was so much better this season that in years past. I always wonder if the celebs get to preview the collections and THEN decide if they're coming, because none of them have, until Claire Danes popped up this year.
Narciso Rodriguez - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
This was sort of wackadoo, but that's okay. I like a little wackadoo on the runway. If Claire Danes were to wear this as-is, I'd eat my hat. (Note: My hat is made of cheese. As far as you know.)
Narciso Rodriguez - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
If I remember right, the sides of this dress were shot through with a jewel-toned silk in purple or teal or something... it walked past me and I thought, "Oh, interesting." Claire Danes might wear that, and I might STILL eat my cheese hat.
Oscar De La Renta - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
LOVE. I swooned over that when it walked past, and other people visibly did too.
Oscar De La Renta - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Only Oscar de la Renta could make me look at that patterned puffer vest and think, "I NEED THAT."
Rodarte - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
It's a hard-knock life. For her.
Badgley Mischka - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
The crazy hair at Badgley made me happy because I love a festival.
Carolina Herrera - Runway - Fall 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Renee Z should totally wear this. It's ladylike, it's cool, and it's not strapless, which is where we get bored with her. She was at the show, too, so maybe she picked one up after.
