New York Fashion S/S 2009: Vera Wang

From Shiny Style: It was all in the details for Vera Wang yesterday, when she presented her spring '09 collection which centred around the accessories. Playing to her signature strengths of draping and delicate embellishment, it was the jewellery that made the biggest statement. Thickly encrusted motorcycle and bib necklaces hung low against loosely layered shift dresses, and stretchy leggings. It may not appeal to everyone's taste, nor will it create the biggest ripples at fashion week, but it was a pleasure to see Wang transform simple shapes into things of beauty.
