Wendy Rowe for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics and the FABULOUS TIBI Fall 2010 Collection February 16, 2010 a Hit by Our Mover and Shaker, Amy Smilovic!


Whom You Know is all about putting great things together.  It's not Who You Know, it's WHOM YOU KNOW.  We had nothing to do with this combination, but you know we plug Bobbi Brown and TIBI ALL THE TIME so it makes so much sense that they worked together last night!  Cheers from Peachy Deegan

Tibi Fall 2010 
"The Tibi woman for Fall 2010 is always pretty, but doesn't know it, and didn't try to be. She's a youthful woman with round, soft features, but dramatic eyes. She is disheveled, yet elegant all at the same time..."
-Wendy Rowe for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics

Unaware of the beauty she possesses, the Tibi woman always exudes disheveled elegance in the most unintentional, yet glamorous way. A fresh, dewy face provides the perfect canvas for showcasing a 60s-inspired “cat eye” with winged liner and dramatically defined lashes. A bit of pink blush on the cheek and a nude lip polish off this soft, youthful look that marries pretty with powerful.

We previously covered this show:

Napoleon and Josephine.  Tibi’s Fall 10 collection is about the appeal of opposites – masculine meets feminine, draping paired with structure, and neutrals with high contrast brights.  Looks featured a variety of separates in contrasting textures, leather and chiffon, paillette sequins and knits.  Layering played a lead role under strapless dresses, sweater coats and floor length gowns.  Disheveled curls topped the heads of dewy faced models (makeup by Bobbi Brown), walking to a lively beat in Tibi sling back clogs and Maria La Rosa thigh high socks in varying hues.   

“When developing my Fall 10 collection, I realized I was in the mood for loads of utterly chic daywear - fabulous separates that would look effortlessly put together.  This season is heavily influenced by sportswear and I believe the first time I’ve injected so much of myself and my own lifestyle into the collection. I’m stealing a quote from Sarah Mower, but I absolutely focused on being “radically normal” this season.” –Amy Smilovic 



Last night, Whom You Know braved the slushy weather to hit the tents once again for Tibi's Fall 2010 show.  In a surprising departure from prior seasons' bright colors and vibrant prints, Tibi went for a darker and more earthy palette for fall.  While keeping to the feminine silhouettes that's the trademark of the label, there were some definite masculine flourishes (tweeds, flannels & military touches) that were thrown into the mix.  And just to show they haven't all but abandoned their usual fun & flirty side, the line-up was punctuated with some jazzy, shimmery dresses & gowns that are sure to please the perennial Tibi fan.  A standout is the Tile Beaded Strapless Goddess Dress.  Keeping the overall mood lite & playful,  all the models sashayed down the runway with big, bouncy & playful curls that were a refreshing counterpoint to the more serious and practical styles this coming fall.
