On The Runway: Bonnie and Clyde Fall Fashion Show

By: Monica Dimperio

October 1st, 2008

The Bonnie and Clyde fashion show was separated into two parts. The first was a showcase of Jeffrey Sebelia's Fall line, which is exclusively sold at Bonnie and Clyde and the second showed off the boutiques Fall wares from various designers.

Though the best part was the intermission, when Jeffrey was piggy-backed out out on a zebra's back. Amazing!

London Fashion Week Raises Brows

This look was seen on Roksanda Ilincic's runway during London Fashion Week. I don't know about you but I'm pretty sure the makeup artist made a grave mistake.

Unfortunately, the models ended up looking more like hot messes than runway models, it's quite sad.

Even though the clothes were pretty, the bad eyebrows and Jacobim Mugatu hairstyles kind of ruined it for me.

I'm sure you, like myself, were intensely focused on who showed during New York fashion week, what models walked the runways and which celebs sat in the front rows. And, like the rest of the fashion world, we'll ask the same exact questions for the next few weeks about London, Milan and Paris.

Though, it might be time for Midwest fashionistas to focus their energy a little closer to home.

For the next month, our very own budding fashion territory will host many a fashion week. The festivities started this week with the Midwest's indie music capitol, Omaha, hosting a week of events, along with our neighbor to the north, Minneapolis, who hosted their very own fashion weekend .For the weeks ahead, if you can tear yourself away from style.com's coverage of far away fashion, check out a show or two in your area.

Since I'm located in Chicago, I will be attending and covering all of the city's awesome events, starting with Gen Art's Fresh Faces in Fashion on October 1st. If you live nearby, visit Chicago Fashion Resource for the rest of the week's scheduled events.

Outside of Chicago? Here are some weeks you should keep your eye on:

Milwaukee: October 3rd. - 6th.

St. Louis: October 7th - October 11th.

Madison: TBA

For The Boys: A Leg(ging) Up

Spotted on Ducky Brown's SP/SU 09 runway: leggings. That's right, the boys strolled down the runway accessorized in black leggings that would make LaLohan jealous.
