Fashion Week in New York reintroduces ladylike classics, pastels for men

THE BATTALION
The biggest shocker at New York’s 2004 Fall Fashion Week, which
took place Feb. 6-13, was not that brown is the new black or that flan
nel will make a huge comeback by next January, two things that will
hopefully never happen. In fact, fashion editors across the board were
surprised at how wearable fall 2004’s clothes are. It is not just the rail-
thin female models and chiseled males in Hollywood who can safely
pull off these looks, but average people with normal bodies can take the
runway looks home with them.
Designers compress all of the fall fashions into six days full of run
way shows held in tents throughout Bryant Park, located in the middle
of the city. At least 2,000 articles are written about Fashion Week, and
more than 20,000 photographs are taken that will dictate what’s hot
and what’s not.
Summing up the week, Andrea Linett, creative director of the
magazine. Lucky, said, “I saw a lot of things that I could see some
body wearing — meaning ordinary somebodies as opposed to rich,
thin, don't-have-to-work-or-wear-a-bra somebodies,” as reported in
USA Today.
There are two seasons in the fashion world, fall/winter and
spring/summer, which are usually called the fall and spring sea
sons. The fall season is held from mid-January to mid-March,
starting off in Milan. After Milan, it’s Paris for the men’s wear pre
view, as reported by Mari Davis in FashionWindow.com.
Following a week’s break, the season for women’s wear begins in
New York. After the NYC Fashion Week, designers head to
London, Milan and Paris.
The consistent, overriding themes are easily summed up by a title
in The New York Times: “Sex Doesn’t Sell: Mis); Prim is In.” A glam
orous femininity that exuded a sweetness was all over the runways.
“We’ve been through a long period of very casual dressing, very
