Striking Images From New York Fashion Week

Erik Hayden 89 Views Feb 15, 2011

The decadent New York Fashion Week is in full swing, and there's no shortage of terrific photography to illustrate it. As collections from Rag & Bone, Thom Browne, Marc Jacobs were showcased, our (otherwise untrained) photography eye noticed a few intriguing images from the proceedings. Topics include, but are not limited to: flying nuns, Victorian futurism, inspiration from Egypt protests (maybe? We're not sure), Black Swan undertones, and a Gaga-esque "emerging from an egg" designs. Have a look.
