mystery at lafayette house

with new york fashion week already over and london fashion week drawing to an end, i can’t help but spend an unhealthy amount of time pouring over all of the new fall 2010 collections. i have a few obvious favorites: hello, marc! his collections seriously reminded me why i love him so much, and right when i was beginning to feel only lukewarm about his styling! thank you! but i digress. i actually have something a tad bit more interesting than your usual runway fare:

did you see any photos from the rachel antonoff fall 2010 collection? such a fun presentation with pretty ladies wearing adorable vintage-inspired outfits inside an old mansion! apparently, the theme was “mystery at lafayette house” and the guests were presented with a series of chic crime scenes. attendees had to become the detectives to solve the mystery and identify the murderer. seeing presentations like this really make me wish i was actually invited to fashion shows! maybe next fashion week…

  1. amazing idea, great execution. i only wish the models were actresses, y'know?

    there was a nancy drew themed photoshoot in bust a few issues back with a band, i wish i could remember their name, but it had a similar vibe to it. you'd like it!

  2. these photos are gorgeous, i wish i could have been there! I like this type of idea so much more than regular runway shows!
