Sophia Kokosalaki, the new creative director of Diesel Black Gold, said backstage "I wanted to infuse technique into the clothes, but still have them soul inherent to the brand" (source: www.style.com).

Sculptural shapes along with tailoring and shift dresses were some of Francisco Costa's interests this season. He also paid attention to the curves on the female body. The colors of this collections-which were mainly a scale of blacks, grays, and whites- remind me of the Ying and Yang symbol.

Oscar de la Renta's collection was inspired by the 80s with glossy makeup and bright colored coats with long cashmere scarfs. Glamorous gowns with flattering ruffles and glittery beads targeted the Hollywood sect. The best word to describe this collection is ELEGANCE.

Narciso Rodriguez's collection is strong, interesting, and balanced. The designer said that his inspiration were "beautiful curved lines and shadows:" Indeed, the dramatic coats and fabrics used had the appereance of shadows. Although his collection was inspired by shadows, Narciso Rodriguez still ussed some color which I found very refresing.

Last but not least, Tommy Hilfiger whose collection was inspired by a girl described as Katherine Hepburn. The duck boats, blazers, colorful bags, and shorts with tights gave a youthful twist to the brand. Tommy Hilfiger closed New York Fashion Week. Now we'll have to wait 'till September to see more.
