Mercedes Benz Fashion Week: Venexiana Fall 2009

On February 13 some of the industry’s chicest fashionista’s gathered to witness one of the most extravagant shows of the season, Venexiana Fall 2009.  The show was held at the tents in Bryant Park and of course New York Girl Style was there to cover the show.  Kati Stern truly outdid herself as she treated spectators to a show filled with lavish fabrics and intricate designs inspired by Venice, Italy, the home of famed textile designer Mariano Fortuny. The highlights were too many to count. There were lush fur stoles and baroque jackets adorned with trims of fox and mink. A bevy of  stunning evening gowns were sent down the runway embellished with metallic sequins and hand beading.
