New York Fashion Week: Day Three




THE first of the New York heavyweights will take to the catwalks today, namely Jason Wu. Having been given Michelle Obama's endorsement once again at Barack Obama's second presidential inauguration last month, the US-based designer is officially one of the city's most exciting and influential fashion names. Known for his ladylike wearable dresses in colourful hues, Wu's latest collection will be one that press and buyers will pore over with equal admiration.


But of course that's not all there is to look forward to today. Also showing are Peter Som, Rebecca Minkoff, Kate Spade and Yigal Azrouel. Cult US label Rag & Bone will take the limelight this afternoon - a brand that counts Kate Moss, Miranda Kerr and Cara Delevingne as fans - before Helmut Lang tonight. Expect androgynous elegance, plenty of draping and asymmetric hems in abundance.


Charlotte Ronson and Suno are up next, followed by Kate Spade's post-show party which promises to get the fashion pack ready for the weekend ahead.
