Best of Fashion Week

F/W 2010 Mercedes Benz Fashion Week is underway, and so far it is a season of Recessionista chic, consisting of dark hues with the occasional jewel tones and safe silhouettes.    In the words of the great Michael Kors, I'm underwhelmed.   Where is the edge?  The avant-garde? The outright absurd?

With that being said, I did discover a few treasures that stood out in the sea of grey.  Here are my fashion week faves so far this season...
