On Friday I was still a bit jetlagged, so decided to keep it low key with the Cushnie et Ochs show:
If you've been reading the Fashion Bomb, you'd know that the dynamic Parson's alumnae behind the line, dubbed the next Proenza Schouler, were the recipients of a $25,000 Ecco Domani Fashion Award to show at Fashion Week.
With all their accolades, I was super excited to see what they would send down the runway:
While I gushed over some of the more club ready frocks, I felt perhaps the ladies pushed the envelope too far with certain looks--some sheer tops, short skirts, and super tight satin dresses seemed more bawdy than sexy...
They may have overshot just a bit, but they have the proven talent to bring it back. I look forward to seeing their future collections.
After the show, I stopped backstage and interviewed Carly Cushnie about the line's inspiration:
What do you think?

This looks like American Apparel meets recent Marc Jacobs...me no likey....way too skimpy, way too tight, just out there. Looks kind of cheap also.
I completely agree with Erica. There seems to be no real originality and these are definitely not things I would buy. And the proportions just seem to be off.
Their clothing cute, i'd wear it.
