Yesterday, the Promenade at Bryant Park was the site of designer Charlotte Ronson’s Spring 2010 fashion show. Ronson comes from a family of artists and has a celebrity-studded speed dial list. Brother Mark was in the audience while sister Samantha worked the show as a DJ, and sister Annabelle modeled on the runway. Many of her celebrity pals like Nicky Hilton watched from the front row.
It looks like Charlotte Ronson envisions Spring 2010 as a time for plenty of leather in the form of shorts and belts. Shoulders and waists were defined, and colors were kept tame, with plenty of gray, white, and soft blue. A number of combos with belted jackets atop tailored shorts were shown. A theme throughout was the defined waist, often with a very simple leather front-tied sash.
While the clothes were influenced by the 80s, the models kept their hair and makeup quite simple, with very basic makeup and hair in various versions of the classic ballerina chignon.
