Nima Fall/Winter 2010 Collection

The Nima Fall and Winter Collection was held February 13, 2010 in SoHo. The stark loft space and black runway added drama to the clean lines and modern shapes of the clothing. See a video clip of the show on YouTube: Nima Fall/Winter 2010 Collection.

The big trend for Nima is the ruched leggings that covered a high heel almost completely. 

The color palette was a modern mix of winter white, camel, and black, with pops of jewel tones thrown in, such as amethyst purple and cobalt blue. Hems were asymmetrical on both dresses and tops, and blazers were cut as a v-shape with no real lapel. 

Accessories were minimal, a large floppy hat, silver bangles, zipper hardware. Blazers were styled with sleeves pushed up, and trousers were flared with a very low hem - brushing the floor even with three inch platform shoes.

We also saw raccoon and mink fur in the form of jackets, vests, and even a dress. Looks are listed below:

1. Ivory double face wool pantsuit

Naomi Campbell's Fashion for Relief - Haiti, NYC 2010 Fashion Show

"Naomi Campbell's Fashion for Relief" is back at New York Fashion Week, and will be front and center on February 12, 2010. 100% of the funds raised at this year's event will go towards CARE to raise funds to rebuild Haiti's healthcare system for mothers and babies. 

The event will be hosted by Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, and all fashions will be auctioned online at Net-a-Portier. American Express cardholders will be able to purchase tickets February 5 at Ticketmaster for $100 and $150. 

Naomi Campbell says, "I am deeply saddened by the recent tragedy in Haiti. So many have been killed and severely affected by the earthquake - women and children in particular are most vulnerable in disasters. Fashion is universal, personal and touches everyone. Our aim is to use this season's catwalk shows in New York to reach people and help raise crucial funds to help save the lives of women and children."
