Badgley Mischka Fall 2009 collection.

It seems to me pop culture comes and goes styles die and are then resuscitated about ten years down the line . My take on this year's New York Fall fashion week is a rebirth of the old and and tweaking of the current . But the thing is they are not the main look but merely an amalgam of different styles mashed into one . Take a look at the mens wear, the eighties high tops and hooded hoods are back ,the bright color mixtures and the flashy jewelry accessories , yes Kanye is pushing his eighties retro style aggressively , but we don't think it will catch on pretty fast , the reason being alot of males think its a very soft look, a tard to feminine look in a very hard time(overall). At the same time , dressing and mature clothes are back , suits, bespoke or regular Ready -to -Wear threads are in trend , so it appears to be a throwback to the early fifties when men used to dress for each occasion . We are at a crossroads of fashion where the sixties meets the 70s and the seventies bumping into the eighties and the 90s and the 2000s being squeezed in there .As per womens wear the same seems to be the case last night at the Badgley Mischka show , I was amazed at how modern his evening gowns were , to tell you the truth , I was shocked and refreshed to see (Badgley Mischka) not jumping onto the 80s bandwagon that seems to be the trend .
