New York Fashion Week: Marchesa Fall 09 Gallery

By Kimberley Foster on February 19th, 2009

For lots of pretty, floaty, fabulous frocks it is imperative that you swing by the Marchesa show during New York Fashion Week. Sticking two fingers to the economy was co-designer Georgina Chapman, who didn’t disappoint in offering up an array of delicate whimsical creations for eveningwear. Fairytale-inspired red carpet gowns were aplenty in layered tulle and draped Grecian-style jersey. These filtered out into ruffled candy cocktail dresses and sparkly black and red minidresses, all tied up in a satin bow. As always it is a true pleasure to watch the fruits of Marchesa’s labor, and take a moment to escape the realities of life. And with Sir Philip Green lurking around the room, one can’t but help wonder whether we might see a Marchesa/Topshop collaboration in the future.

It looks like the rest of the U.S. won’t have to wait too long for Topshop to expand once the planned Soho store is up and running! While two more Manhattan stores will probably be the first to roll out, there are also plans for a West Coast flagship as well as stores in cities like Las Vegas, Miami and Boston – and sooner rather than later according to Topshop owner Sir Philip Green. Green also told WWD that he’s looking for young U.S. design talent to add to their design pool which most famously includes Kate Moss, left.
