Fun at Fashion Week with Betsey Johnson
Betsey Johnson has provided an eclectic mix of her vintage fashions and new beatnik styles, in a show that was pure visual indulgence. 80’s and 90’s trends were reborn and resurged. The styling was accentuated by the devoted use of crimping irons, highlighted by the quirky placement of an odd beret. The leg wear fascinated me the most…15 denier sheers with diamonds and spots, or over the knee, sporting socks. The styles weren’t essentially very wearable, a bit too “body con to the extreme” for me (a little Olivia Newton-John reveal in Grease) but sooooo fun and heartracingly different. See the whole show (must be viewed from beginning to end) on Style.com. I so want those red glasses!
