A little over a month ago, as I eagerly browsed the photo archives on style.com, I fell in love with Cushnie et Ochs S/S11 line.  What I did not know, on that first day of NYFW, was how representative it would be of the collections to follow.  Yellow would be everywhere, bright colours would abound, silhouettes would be referential of the '60s, and the beauty of sheer simplicity would not be lost on the American designers.  Above is the long-awaited sequel to my first NY S/S11 Highlight Reel, a few of my favorite collections from the many that graced the catwalks at Lincoln Center.
