Show Reviews & Photos:

Ashish N Soni: The collection, inspired by "the work of Viennese artists at the turn of the century," unfortunately doesn't speak 2007.

Cia.Marítima: Brazilian swimwear, Brazilian models...and Karolina Kurkova.

Dragana Ognjenovic: The Serbian designer's sophomore effort in the Big Apple boasted solid colors and a subtle sophistication.

Feral Childe: Clothing, cast resin knives...and a crow's head (don't worry, it's fake).

Gottex: The Israeli company celebrated its 50th anniversary with a gorgeous array of modern, innovative and sexy swimwear.

Joanna Mastroianni: Mastroianni's exquisite garden-inspired collection included a masterful usage of accents that served a purpose.

Lisa Thon: Thon's swimsuits, casual wear and dresses amounted to one very mixed bag.

Scanty by Mickey Sills: A rollicking runway show captured the spirit of this carefree Californian's style in a fun collection of women's sleepwear.

Terexov: More variety was needed in this collection of flowing dresses and skirts.

Youco: This Japanese designer's cute collection is straight out of the doors of Anthropologie invites you to a picnic!
