Style: Grey Gardens

story THE FADER

While we were busy ho-humming through the crowds of Bryant Park last week our online style contributor Alpha Vomero got the chance to hit up some of the more indie favorites around town: Bodkin, Samantha Pleet and 2009 Ecco Domani winner Corpus. Amongst the women’s looks there seemed to be a quite obvious gray/blue theme throughout, capitalizing on last week’s fashion buzz that collections were taking the recession mood literally with dark tones and armor-like hardware. Despite the darker mood of the three collections, they all maintained a whimsical feel in texture and fabric, using lightweight and silky blends to make even the most fierce recessionista just a little bit softer.
