The OAK: NYFW Spring 2014: Not Your Grandma's Fashion Week...OK, Well Maybe A Little

NYFW happened to coincide with the holiest of holidays for the Hebrews this year so my posts had to be postponed until now. My apologies, OAKies. I did however spend this holiday with my grandfather, which is kind of the perfect segue into the apparent theme of some the shows for Spring 2014-- Grandma. Viewers take note, shiny pastels were abundant, as were severely oversized moo-moo looking things; much of Prabal Gurungs show made me nostalgic for my Grandma down in Florida by the pool, but in a good way. Fear not younger generation, there were graphic geometric prints aplenty as well as a plethora of clean lines and colorful youthful looks. More so than last year, this Spring will bring a lot more revealing clothing so we modest ladies will just have to make it work.
