Rain Rain Go Away – I spotted Russia’s Miroslava Duma caught in the rain after Calvin Klein’s show on the final day of New York Fashion Week. I’ve also captured her cute Tommy Hilfiger stripes here after Marc Jacobs and you can see this full look after the jump.
She happens to be wearing my favorite color combo, saturated blue with green, that I’ll be sharing more of from the streets that week. Miroslava (Mira) is the former editor of Vogue Russia who launched the pretty addicting fashion website Buro 24/7. Even though it’s in Russian, it’s a fun global take on style. Back to the rain, I kept worrying about her suede clutch getting wet as she stood waiting for her driver. (It’s a girl thing). See Mira’s full outfit >>>

White Hot Spotlight – I’ll be sharing some colorful combos I spotted after Calvin Klein’s show with Miroslava Duma and a Celine Dream, but white seemed to be trending as I caught the style set spilling out into the streets at the tail end of New York Fashion Week.

Closet Case – I ran into blogger Leandra Medine a few times over the course of New York Fashion Week. She’s The Man Repeller and I found her to be, well, not so repelling. I spotted her above, after Ralph Lauren, and below, after Prabal Gurung. Always in killer shoes and enviable coats, but for some reason, I was really into her hats, specifically the way she owned the knit capper below.
I also liked her boyish vibe as she exited Prabal Gurung. You can check out The Man Repeller for all her outfit details. (This girl has some serious press, no?) You can catch a couple more photos, including one of her *trademarks* after the jump. (Literally, she trademarked the term “arm party” coined for the stellar stack of bracelets she’s known for wearing). Click for more pix & her serious stash of bracelets >>>

Let the Games Begin – If Brick Breaker involved fashion, maybe then I’d play. Fellow shooters had a strong reaction to wanting to shoot this model’s man after Ralph Lauren’s show the final day of New York Fashion Week. He was trying to get out of the shot and she had just whispered to him, “They want you in the shot, too.” I was curious, but couldn’t take my eyes off her and probably the only puffy jacket I would ever wear. White pants with grommets? You don’t see that every day, or any day, really.

A Killer Exit -
DJ Mia Moretti made one of the more memorable exits (with stylist Logan Horne) after Prabal Gurung’s show at the onset of
New York Fashion Week. I’m not sure if she tires of being called an “it girl,” but I’ve been smitten with her style since I shot her at a
Kitson LA event. I had to know who she was wearing and her Fashion Week survival tips – and she shared her deets via email.
Mia offered, “I was wearing a
Prabal Gurung blouse & sweater,
Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti skirt,
Isabel Marant jacket and boots with
Fenton bracelets. The sunglasses are
Super.” Her Fashion Week tip was grounded advice with, “Wear a piece or two you know you love, even if it’s something you’ve had for ages. It’s always nice to mix your own personal touches in.”
You can go to Mia’s website, click download and enter your email addy in exchange for a 33:43 minute mix and she also tumbles. You can click here to catch Logan’s recent Super Bowl Photo Diary.

I Survived - I just wanted to catch my breath for a minute and share a few things. Granted, I shot for a few hours last September while I was visiting a friend, but this was my first full experience shooting New York Fashion Week. I’m still high and pretty wrung out. I also got some nice, unexpected ink from Racked New York, who featured some of my earlier images in a fancy slide show. (Thanks, Izzy!)
As my content will be changing a bit, here are a few disclaimers, especially for any newcomers (hello!):
- I might’ve geeked out a bit seeing some of my favorite stylish editors, bloggers and photographers - but hey, you have to allow some fanfare photos before I get too jaded (which is bound to happen).
- I really did shoot civilians as well, but am only including a few favorites, like this young girl in whimsical vintage, above.
- I will be running Fashion Week photos for a while, but will start folding in the stylish denizens I’ve been spotting around NYC. I seriously think I have enough material for 30-50 Fashion Week posts, but whittling some down to fun themes.
Finally, I’ve had so much fun here that I’m not in such a hurry to get back to Los Angeles, but do miss it and look forward to working on both coasts. I’m picking up new photo editing software, so a flurry of images is around the bend… @

Rain Men – I caught these gents braving the elements before and after Calvin Klein’s show at New York Fashion Week at 7th Avenue and 39th Street. There were big plans to “occupy” but only about 7 people showed up to protest.
God Bless Mother Nature
I also have at least a dozen amazing looks from women before and after the show, so stay tuned. Namedropping: Miroslava, Anya, Kate, Julia, a ruby red, floral arrangement and…
