Rebecca Minkoff Fall 2011

 

 My first regret of the week: failing to snap a close-up of Sean Lennon and Charlotte Kemp-Muhl (and another musician friend) strumming away at Rebecca Minkoff. They opened the show with beautiful harmonies and played out the finale with an accordion-french horn duet that could make a grown Yoko cry.

The clothes looked like a East Village loll-about met a free-wheeling poet, and they combined their wardrobes into one perfect blend of leather-patched jeans, slouchy knits, and long, flowy skirts. The expected deep red bag and tweed jacket popped up, but the standout color of the collection was vibrant forest green.
