A lot happens at fashion week beyond the runway shows. Parties, shopping and a few odd encounters along the way, I wanted to share the highlights from my NYC trip. Because there’s more to life than fashion…

Just a Few More From NYFW Spring 2013
Sick of New York Fashion Week yet? I’m sure you are, but let’s pretend like you’re not.
I hope you’ve been enjoying my NYFW posts, covering some of the Spring 2013 shows I attended in New York. Here’s a look at some highlights of the rest of the shows I attended while I was there.

Clover Canyon Spring 2013: On The Road
This isn’t Clover Canyon’s first rodeo on ChiCityFashion (I was currently obsessing over the brand in August…and that obsession has not gone away).
Clover Canyon’s innovative prints are something that will always be a part of their designs…but did you ever think of wearing clothes with pictures of motel rooms, an open road, surf shacks, or cannabis leaves?

Bibhu Mohapatra SS13: Inspired By The Luna Moth
The Spring 2013 collection acknowledges the prophetic symbolism of the luna moth to celebrate the evolution and transformation of an ever-intiuitive Bibhu woman.
This is what Bibhu Mohapatra described as his inspiration for Spring ’13, included on the handouts at the show Wednesday morning. The first thing I did when I got home…Google luna moth.

Elizabeth and James Spring 2013
Ever since Full House I have been a huge Olsen fan (and I owned just about every single one of their videos…on VHS). To look back at where they were and what they’re doing now just blows me away. Not many people know how to make a $34,000 backpack and design wearable, affordable clothes at the same time. That’s why I consider Mary-Kate and Ashley the design geniuses of our generation. And it was an honor to attend the Elizabeth and James presentation Wednesday afternoon.
So instead of me reminiscing about the 90s and how much I love the Olsens, let’s talk about Elizabeth and James Spring 2013.
