Alexander Wang Takes a (Cat)walk of Shame
Backstage at Alexander Wang, the designer told me his inspiration for the hair and makeup was "sweat." Well, he couldn't have picked a more humid and rainy day to show.
Just as hot-and-bothered was the beauty look.
Backstage Beauty: Alexander Wang
I thought you all might enjoy seeing some photos from backstage at Alexander Wang. I know he's not a household name, but give the guy a break—he's only 23! His show had a lot of beautiful cashmere pieces, and like so many other shows this week, the makeup and hair were low-key.

2009 Fall New York Fashion Week: Barbie
The worlds of fashion and beauty are traditionally youth-obsessed, but today's most crowded show featured a 50-year-old muse. The tents were swarming with people (including quite a few little girls) who wanted to peek at the doll's runway show. Fashion's heavy hitters, including Calvin Klein and Alexander Wang, created outfits inspired by the doll.

Bella Donna: Grace Jones
At Rag & Bone's Fall 2008 show, crisp white button-downs were punctuated with skinny black ties, and Alexander Wang showed layers, knit hats and vests. The androgyny trend practically begins and ends with Grace Jones, the model-turned-musician whose signature flat top, glasses, amazing skin and wild getups (Keith Haring once painted her body and fitted her with armor) solidified her as one of the most iconic faces of the time.
Born in Spanish Town, Jamaica, Jones moved to Syracuse, New York and studied acting at Syracuse University.
