If you’ve been reading the Fashion Bomb, you’d know that the dynamic Parson’s alumnae behind the line were the recipients of a $25,000 Ecco Domani Fashion Award to show at Fashion Week.
With all their accolades, I was super excited to see what they would send down the runway:
Their Fall 2009 collection focused on subdued blacks, grays, and whites accented with pops of futuristic metallic. Edgy and eye catching, the ladies went for drama with dresses, jackets, and pants with singular details like cut outs, single arms, liquid materials, and high collars:

They may have overshot just a bit, but they have the proven talent to bring it back. I look forward to seeing their future collections.
