DAYLIGHT: ENK FASHION COTERIE SPRING 12 BRINGS THE HEAT AT THE JAVITS CENTER-AND WE LOVE GEIGER IN EVERY SEASON! WHOM YOU KNOW WAS THRILLED TO MEET ELISABETH GEIGER!

Elisabeth Geiger, best outfit at the show!
Stay tuned-there will be more from Elisabeth soon...
Everyone looks better in Geiger!
We hope you got yours for the winter-see Brave the Cold!

Fashion Coterie – the supreme ENK Show returned for Spring 2012 with a plethora of brands and designers befitting the American fashion industry’s premium fashion trade show.  We enjoyed meeting so many new friends and seeing old friends and were particularly thrilled to see Elisabeth Geiger, whom Peachy hadn't actually met before.  We were equally thrilled to meet Connie St. George after being email correspondents for so long!

In addition to Fashion Coterie’s stand out designer brands, many of which came to the show with an impressive list of New York Fashion Week collection reviews, TMRW - a hand-picked representation of the industry’s top emerging brands and progressive talent - returned to Fashion Coterie giving a fresh perspective on the fashions of tomorrow. TMRW is an edited group of designers in their own intimate environments - designers that have the right ideas, a sophisticated creative and detailed aesthetic – merchandised separately within Fashion Coterie.

In addition to the fashion stars of tomorrow, Fashion Coterie saw the stars of today light up the aisles of 3 floors of the Javits center – Mary Kate Olsen attended in support of her Elizabeth and James collection, Kathy Hilton debuted her much anticipated new line of social occasion dresses drawing in press and even The Insider.

While the entertainment world was watching these celebrities, buyers and the media were focused on the Shows’ stand-out designers – all debuting at Fashion Coterie this season:

Kathy Hilton Mother to Paris and Nicky presents her first collection of social occasion dresses

L.A.M.B. Handbags Rock star gone designer, Gwen Stephanie shows her collection of handbags

Vena Cava Hot off the runway, Vena Cava showing for the first time at Coterie

Location:
Javits Center
37th Street (at 11th Avenue)
New York City
