Starting fashion week off with some class, Prabal Gurung – former design director at Bill Blass – staged his inaugural showing with a presentation at the Flag Art Foundation in Chelsea. The rustic entrance via freight elevator belied the masterful tailoring and elegant simplicity of the clothes. Combinations of furs were beautifully mixed and will definitely keep their wearer warm through this economic winter. The sharp and architectural lines of his dresses are appropriate for all ages of sophisticated women. Sleek and eternal, these clothes will be a staple of galas, holiday parties, and fetes of all kinds next winter. The pared down palate of black, ivory, and khaki was recession friendly and punctuated with the right amount of red to give it life and drama. Prabal’s garments have a reminiscence of New York class, Parisian quality, and Moscow style. Every lady of distinction better get at least one staple piece from this collection while she still can.
