With a bag named after her daughter, and her soccer star husband sitting front and center, Victoria Beckham's Fall 2012 show was a family affair.
Apparently undeterred by bad Carrie Bradshaw juju, Posh brought her no-frills wares to the New York Public Library Sunday morning. Hubby David Beckham, looking dapper as ever, sat in the front row between Vogue heavyweights, Anna Wintour and Hamish Bowles.
The new collection was full of minimalist eye candy. Form-fitting dresses alternated between subdued army surplus hues and bold primary colors. Meanwhile shoulder pads, high collars and clean lines brought the military motif into her outerwear. Victoria shared her inspiration for her fall line, saying, “This season I challenged myself to explore how clothes can make women feel when they put them on and how to create an emotional attachment between the garment and the wearer."
Minutes before the start of her show, Victoria tweeted an image of her new line of bags, with the message, "Meet Harper!" With a "ridiculous wardrobe" and now an eponymous handbag, 7-month-old Harper Beckham is shaping up to be quite a fashionable tot indeed.

Nothing tickles a girly-girl's fancy like Alice + Olivia. From high-intensity sequins to ruffled peplums and florals, the retail-conscious line smartly caters to every feminine notion. Please add bows, polka-dots and pink to that checklist.
Season upon season, A+O's designer, Stacey Bendet, creates an exuberantly playful line-up of day and night pieces. Her brilliance lies in how she balances saccharine with funky—for this collection, it can be seen in the form of a clever bedazzled tie, baggy cargo pants (paired with a glitzy top, of course) and her Beetlejuice pantsuit .
Zooey Deschanel, look no further, this is quirky at its best.

Forget what you thought you knew about Christian Siriano's penchant for frivolity and in-your-face glitz. Inspired by the 1933 horror flick The Vampire Bat, the Project Runway winner exercised restraint this season with a darkly subdued fall collection.
Rife with shades of silver, midnight blue and blood red, the clothes winked at the Fay Wray film without ever giving off an overtly vintage air. Swirly tubing on shift dresses and jackets represented bat veins, fluttery sleeves were delicate wings, while an inverted widow's peak neckline was a more direct nod to the film. Leather, sure to be huge this year, gave the simplistic styles a downtown vibe, toughening even the most delicate chiffon gown.
With actresses Mena Suvari and Gabourey Sidibe in attendance, the audience showed its appreciation for the wearable collection with roaring cheers and a standing ovation.
