Preen’s design duo was minus one very important person over the weekend. Thea Bregazzi was forced to remain in London, expecting the arrival of her first child, leaving husband and design partner, Justin Thornton to oversee their New York show alone. Little de-constructed mini dresses were the theme of the day, panelled with sheer mesh to show of that extra bit of skin, and laced together like corsetry in cut-out sections.

Donna Karan celebrated her 20th anniversary collection yesterday morning, in front of a celeb-packed audience including Winona Ryder, Christina Ricci and Nicole Richie – who wore a DKNY striped tank to suit the show’s theme. Karan’s spring 2009 offering was a fun nod to New York, even right down to the gold DKNY plate necklaces – a Carrie Bradshaw reference.

That’s right, the bandage dress is officially back…

One of the most highly anticipated shows of this season took place yesterday, thanks to Max Azria who relaunched Hervé Leger at New York Fashion Week. Our U.K. sister-site Catwalk Queen is helping with our FW coverage, and say Azria couldn’t have taken over the label at a better time with the recent revival of the body-con trend, which Hervé Leger made famous in the late ’80s to early ’90s. The iconic bandage dress was resurrected and updated with one-shoulder necklines and ribbon appliqué. Evening style versions featured floor-sweeping satin and feathers, adding an entirely new element. Overall, it was a welcome return for the label and a fitting tribute to the “king of cling”.

The Irish designer’s show officially opens LFW on February 10. At his London studio, Paul discusses what inspired him to create his forthcoming autumn/winter ’08-’09 collection and what we can expect to see on the catwalk.

“I don’t use real fur. I’d get shot… killed in the underground at Bond Street or something,” he joked with CQ’s Kimberley Foster. Click the image to play video.
