Katya Leonovich Spring 2013 Collection

From Russia with Love, Moscow's own Katya Leonovich stunned the Studio at Lincoln Center with her soiree of soft fabrics and femininity that graced the runway. Her details that went into her collection stood out in ways that demands a woman to be noticed. Her color palette is so easy on the eyes and makes so many of us opt for one of her pretty frocks. 

 The leathers, chiffons, charmuese were all sewn into a fashion forward wardrobe to die for.

Nothing captured the crowd's attention more than her staple on how important it is for all of us to get out and vote; and by doing so, she brings two beautiful models to the runway clad in dresses that has the faces of both of our Presidential Candidates, Gov Mitt Romney and current President of the United States, President Barack Obama.

All Signs Point to Jersey

James "Jersey" Murray

While so many were line up to see designer collections at the tents, a few attendees were all the more lucky to have custom made jewelry made right there on location at Lincoln Center. Jewelry designer James "Jersey" Murray is the mastermind behind a fabulously creative collection of necklaces and bracelets adorned with charms that have the symbols of  twelve zodiac signs.  The brass zodiac tags are linked to precious stones such as Purple Jade, White Jade Purple Agate, Onyx, Blue Lapiz and Turquoise to name a few.
