Warren Tricomi worked with designer Douglas Hannant where Edward Tricomi created the hair for the Douglas Hannant Fall 2009 Show at New York Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.
Step #1: Prep hair by making it straight and sleek and part hair to create a bottom and a top.
Step #2: Take the lower portion of hair and slick back with hair spray to create a French twist.
Step #3: Next tease the upper portion of the hair with hairspray and create a bouffant and smooth over with a flat brush and hairspray.
Step #4: Pin back the bouffant to create a linear ponytail look and spray for hold.

What a great way to end fashion week than with designer Michael Kors. I really loved his fall collection. And I really felt that it offered everything a women will need in her fall wardrobe. From great dresses in an assortment of refined and classic cuts. You can wear any of these fine ensembles for work, travel, vacation or evening event. I loved the belts which accented the dress, as well as the fantastic neutral colors. (Gray’s, black’s, white’s, khaki and pink). Which really are so down to earth and so very easy to wear for the everyday women. But that is what Kors is famous for, keeping it simple, but adding the touch of class which isn’t overbearing to wear. The collection was uplifting – from cool casual to puffy cashmere coats. Including some very hot and bright colors in oranges and lime greens. A very well executed fashion show with every look included. Michael knows how to dress a modern women, while keeping it down to earth, but fun as well. What a great way to end New York fashion week for fall 2009! Michael we applaud you with standing ovation my dear!

The Mulleavy sisters are more often than not a highlight of the week. This season, they did not disappoint their loyal following of editors and front row celebs including Kirsten Dunst and Elijah Wood (both “friends”). But I am really enjoying this very ‘futuristic’ slash ‘Blade Runner’ edge that we are seeing at this collection. I am not too sure what is inspiring designers these days. But we are for sure finally seeing us going technotronic in our clothing. With high heel leather boots that straddle up the thigh, to amazing graphic designs on the very sleek dresses. I don’t know about you, but we are for sure entering into what the ‘Mayans’ called the fifth sun cycle of 2012? Or finally our entry into space travel? Well my Aquarius mind is going array with me! I always knew I was way ahead of my time. But it looks like I am not the only one. But back to the fashion – the collection featured strong leather jackets and incredible knitwear – this season more maximal than the last. And back to those ‘thigh high boots’ – their collaboration with shoe designer Nicholas Kirkwood brought their hip-high strappy boots to complement our ’star treking’ days ahead. Which I dare to say – will be quite wearable as 2009 spins into fall fashion.

Now we have to go ‘Haute Couture’ upon visiting fashion week. And my choice designer for that category is Marc Jacobs with his fall 2009 collection. To the large assembly of freezing paparazzi outside the Lexington Armory, the Marc Jacobs show kicked off with a portrayal of sculptured designs. And of course a lot of fashion composition and flare. But what are we seeing here? Fun 80’s fashion being revived? With a touch of color desperation? But wait a minute. Those colors do fair well, and bravo Marc for going all the way. I am enjoying the combinations of crushed purples, mixed with greens. Or those very bold gold and yellow numbers. But hey it works, especially for dressing the ‘young’ elite of Hollywood. This collection is bright and electric. And really what more do we expect from Marc? Then these over the top and daring designs. He really has never played it safe. But with such international recognition in the fashion world, we just could not over look this playful jester’s world.
