Fall '11 NY Fashion Week: Halston
There were the expected lean, slinky cutout columns, Grecian draped cocktail dresses, and glamorous but minimally inclined sportswear. But the execution was uneven. Most of the gowns lacked energy, in some cases almost literally, with slightly wrinkled fabrics that appeared less than luxurious. The idea behind a sarilike asymmetrical chiffon number that exposed a jeweled bra would seem to be a decadent sexiness, but it felt limp, and a trio of sequined dresses cut in glow-in-the-dark fabric just seemed like a party trick.
