Fashion Week, Day 1: Fashion Crowd Trends, 1-Piece Dressing
Saturday September 6, 2008
I like to watch the runway, but the fashion crowd is much more entertaining. In addition to the well-dressed (and there are lots of fabulous fashion types here) there are the fashion victims: boys in man shorts (short shorts!), girls in huge scarves despite the heat, etc. And there's lots of white after Labor Day -- which I know is an outdated fashion rule -- but you can't help but notice all of the white bags, pants and shoes.At the shows, designers like Maz Azria at BCBG are showing soft dressing in neutral to earthy hues. And dresses are joined by more 1-piece dressing: dresses, rompers and jumpsuits. (Photo Credit: Frazer Harrison/Getty Images)

These are all very pretty and would look fine at a cocktail party or an evening out where semi-formal attire is appropriate. However, I was hoping to see some one piece items suitable for the workplace.
Carole and others,
I am putting together a photo gallery of work-ready looks. Watch the blog — or sign up for the newsletter to see when it’s up!
