Brooky’s Quicky – NYFW SS01 – Issac Mizrahi

So I sat down tonight ready to finish off my Quickies in New York Fashion Week (oh that’s a bit naughty sounding) and I decided to finish with the fabulous Issac Mizrahi.
But then I got side-tracked. I got a case of remember the times, you know, remember that time when Issac Mizrahi had his own talk [...]

Brooky’s Quicky – NYFW SS10 – Michael Kors

Have I mentioned before that my cable got cut off? It was a few months ago, and I’m still bitter.
I miss Project Runway SO BAD! And I’m one of the freaks who enjoys the judges! Seriously! Nina does not scare me, Ich Liebe Heidi! And of course, Michael K0rs.
Mr Kors is someone I think of [...]

Brooky’s Quicky – NYFW SS10 – Betsy Johnson

Get down, get funky – its Betsy Johnson time.
This lady make me smile…everytime.
When I am sick of people trying to find the deep meaning of eighties shoulders and mesh pants, telling me 3 years head of time that people will wear teal (I don’t know that – but know you what I mean). Betsey Johnson reminds [...]

Brooky’s Quicky – NYFW SS10 – Zac Posen

I watched the first episode of ‘The Beautiful Life’ starring Mishca Barton, and in the first scene of the show – the BIG fashion show scene –  and who is the designer we see? Zac Posen. This guy is on so many shows – I forget sometimes that he ACTUALLY makes clothes. And really nice [...]

Brooky’s Quicky – NYFWSS10 – Thakoon

Ok, I’m going to admit something, i only know this name because Michelle Obama wears his stuff all the time. Which truly shows that whatever she wears = success.
A few quickies back I said Diane Von Furstenburg was Queen of Print and Colour. We have a King. Who do I have to murder to get [...]

Brooky’s Quicky – NYFW SS10 – Alexander Wang

I have a theory about Alexander Wang customers.
1) They have too much money to shop at H&M
2) They think they’re too hip for Marc Jacobs
3) They spend alot of time on their hair so that is looks like they don’t.
Just a theory.
The de-constructed men’s underwear and old rugby gear is really not my bag, could be [...]

Brooky’s Quicky – NYFW SS10 – Christian Siriano

My goodness this guy loves drama. One of my favourites little bitches from Project Runway – Christian Siriano, winner of season 4th season, is actually making a name for himself.
This guys LUVS hats = drama. I really like the architecture he does with fabrics, but not too large that you can’t get through doorways.  He [...]

Brooky’s Quicky – NYFW- SS10 – Jason Wu

OK – I have a few fashion-cringe phrases; such as when someone says “fancy frock” I shiver (ewwww). Don’t know why honestly.
Another of these cringe-inducing phrases is ‘Fashion Wunder Kid’ – I HATE this term – mainly because it is ALWAYS a guy, in his early twenties.
So a while back when Jason Wu came along [...]
