So this post is all about my Top 3 Buys from the Apres Ski store, which was brought out in cooperation with the beautiful Alpine Chalet!
1. White Fair Isle Leggings - 41SC's. I think these are one of the best pieces from the store, and were the first thing I bought. Fair Isle print has been all over the catwalks, and this pair of leggings would be a valuable addition to your wardrobe! They look great as a statement piece, but also with other Fair Isle prints.

The work shop of Danish silversmith Georg Jensen in Frederiksberg, Copenhagen created the perfect setting for YDE’s decadent elegance. The audience could see the artisans at work while the models sashayed down the catwalk. In other words the surroundings set the standard for an atmosphere that worked perfect with the beautiful clothing.

There’s a new designer on the block this Fashion Week, but she’s no stranger to the industry. After graduating from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in L.A., Katharine Polk jetted to Manhattan to begin her design career as an in-house design assistant and stylist at Badgley Mischka, where she did everything from styling the label’s collections to helping produce fashion shows to creating accessories for the runway. After successfully working six seasons at Bryant Park and creating her own styling company, Katharine Polk Stylist, Polk is ready to launch her own fashion line. Houghton, Polk’s premiere collection, will debut at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center at the Grand Promenade in Avery Fisher Hall tomorrow. “I still felt like something was missing, and it still wasn’t my own,” Polk confessed of her styling days. So, in August 2011, Polk returned to designing. The idea for Houghton came to her after seeing a swatch of colors. After that, she expanded to sketch a couple of dresses and soon she was buying fabrics, developing the looks, and feeling the textures. She decided to combine simple and neutral palettes with more developed textures and fabrics. What began as five pieces turned into ten, and then a full ready-to-wear collection. Houghton was born. The entire collection can be summed up in two words: effortless chic. It’s made for independent women who want to look stylish and strong, like Polk’s female heroines who inspired the line: Katharine Hepburn (Polk’s namesake), Bianca Jagger, and Patti Smith. All of the dresses in the collection are named after these and other important women, who Polk smartly compared to the modern day Tilda Swinton. All 25 of Houghton’s pieces are clean, modern, and simple—there isn’t too much embellishment or over-the-top design. There are statement dresses, long tailored coats, and menswear-inspired suits, all in a soft palette of colors—mainly ivory, blush, and white—and luxurious fabrics like silk cashmere and satin-faced chiffon. The age bracket for these clothes runs the gamut, ranging from 18-40 years old. “A mother and a daughter can both wear pieces from the collection,” Polk said. “They are both fashion-conscious women that want pieces that are very easy to wear.” But stylish wears come at a steep price: Polk envisions the line being sold at stores like Barneys, Jeffries, and Bergdorf Goodman. In reference to her launch at Fashion Week, Polk replied sternly, “I either do it 110% or nothing at all.” And the budding designer did just that. She shot her lookbook and got her collection done very early, leaving ample time for production, castings, fittings, alterations, hair and makeup, and all of the other fun things that go into staging a runway show. One thing that Polk hopes to employ at the show tomorrow is a staged performance—she wants the pieces to move to highlight the quality of the luxe fabrics. Houghton has been well-received already. Pulls include celebrities such as Anne Hathaway, Michelle Williams, and Chloë Sevigny. We wish Katharine the best of luck at her debut tomorrow! Break a leg! Get a sneak peek of two Houghton looks below!

We hear Kanye West has been so devoted to working on his fall collection that he’s made his musical collaborators come to him, in London. The fruits of his focus will be shown in Paris on March 6th, the same day that brands like Chanel, Valentino and Alexander McQueen show their new ready-to-wear. Though West’s debut collection wasn’t met with raving critical reviews last September, the industry likes the guy. After last month’s Twitter rant, in which he defended his many projects, his interest in fashion, and his hard work, it sounds like he learned from his first try. We’re excited to see what he comes up with for fall. Click here to see his spring collection.
