Rad Hourani Spring '09 Show

New York Fashion Week Spring '09 lives. I have to post my Rad Hourani pictures from his spring collection shown downtown during fashion week, because I could easily dress like this every single day for the rest of my life. Yes, major leather after 40. Hourani's show was all black on black, but his use of texture and accents kept it interesting. Perfect black tunics, slashed black leggings, some leather and perfect tall slouchy boots = daily uniform. As long as I never leave New York City.

The perfect tunic & leggings;

A shiny top & my favorite boots;


She was going the wrong way, which I loved as I got a good front shot.











My black layers;
Did I tell you this line is unisex? My man can NOT share my leggings, or wear shiny tunics;

He's also not allowed to wear boots with cropped leggings, EVER;









Nice back;

perfect minimal look;
would totally borrow his coat;










My slashed leggings, my spring coat, & my favorite belt + coat dress;











A very stylish crowd, with very hot shoes.

I love the tunic/legging look in that first photograph! And I feel a lack of black in wardrobe that may need to be fixed.

Seeker said...

I love the first tunic/leggings look and NO, Hubby would NOT be allowed to share my leggings ;)

What's not to love?? Have you looked at the Reborn shop online? Black, black, and more black.

Elizabeth said...

Mr.OM has better legs than I do, so I'm DEFINITELY not letting him wear mine!

One of each item, please!

Tricia said...

Seriously, right, enc?! and Carrie, I was hoping you'd know what the shoes are - they're incredible, I was totally stalking them.SW
Sister - will check out Reborn. I just can't help but be stuck on black.
Seeker - yes, belts we can share, leggings no!
dapper - whaaaa??? I can't believe you don't have enough black! but you do have that great sense of color.
wendy - I think that's a good idea. Toothbrush, maybe, leggings, nevah!
Sharon - yeah, this kid's got some skills!

I love the collection but it's a little bleak for spring. I need to see an accessory or some sort of color. The leather tunics are very form fitting tho!

Dear Miss Fashion...

The oh-so-hot shoes force us to ask one of your insight and wisdom a question: how much higher are the heels going to climb before they level off...?

Second question: do you think we can tie the heel height increase to the economic decreases, as in 'downturn.' (Daddy taught us to nevereverever use the other economic D word. He said that kept anyone from thinking they were in one.)

Expiring mind dying to know,
