Manzies Hit The Catwalks At New York Fashion Week

Just when I thought that my Manzie Reports were getting read by all the right people, being viewed on all the right laptops, iPhones and Blackberries, comes the reality that I am not fully doing my job. I know that the Manzie Report has been a source of laughter and hysteria by many of the industry’s top taste-makers, creatives and editors. But clearly, there are several stylists and fashion designers that must be deleting the IMW Manzie Report and clicking to CocoPerez.com. Big mistake girl. He is not going to steer you in the right direction. Perez will just feature the celebrity aspect of Fashion Week…and after flipping through Women’s Wear Daily‘s coverage of Fashion’s Night Out, you could just go there. The Manzie Report is a designers frenemy. It was created to be instrumental in helping you determine what not to do next season, or ever again. OK, maybe not in the warmest, fuzziest way. But the notes will ring loud and clear. You will come away with…”Yeah, what was I thinking putting that ridiculous pill box hat on that cute boy”, or “Did I really think that a guy was going to wear this?”

All that said, I’d like to start my Spring ’10 New York Fashion Week coverage by giving props to Rag and Bone and Ralph Lauren. Both collections were great in completely different ways. I’d also like to honorably mention some of the looks by Yigal Azruel…BUT…tsk tsk tsk on the Puss in Boots thing.

The opening look at Yigal Azruel are the pants he wore to the CFDA Not Best Dressed List Awards. And are still fotz. The other peices in the collection were very relaxe and sexy. These things scream "look at me, look at me". No?

I have said time and time again, shorts and blazers will never equal a suit. And striped bubble shorts for men is like a jock stap for women. Not gonna happen.

The Phillip Lim 3.1 show proves that he should just stay out of menswear...and I use that term very loosly here. This is like that Marni nonsense.

I really love the Duckie Brown boysl...but this thing is like...ok girls...you need to stop drinking your own Kool-Aid. Littel Lord Faunleroy wouldn't be caught dead in this...and neither would the average gal.

Here's that pill box hat that I spoke about earlier.
