Aussie runway favourite Miranda Kerr walked the David Jones show yesterday in this white, asymmetric one-piece swimsuit.
What do you think of her look?

Rate or Slate: Padma Lakshmi's CFDA-Awards Satin
Padma Lakshmi chose asymmetric satin - with a slight train, ooh la la - at last night's CFDA Awards in New York's Lincoln Center. What are your thoughts?

Rate or Slate: Tory Burch at the CFDA Awards
Tory Burch won last year's CFDA Award for Accessory Designer of the Year, so this year's ceremony should be a bit less nerve-wracking. In a gold-and-blue asymmetric gown, does she have your vote? And - for her - more importantly, what about that gold clutch?

Fash Off: Coco vs Hilary at the CFDA Awards
Coco Rocha, Hilary Rhoda
It was a head-to-toe look from the Michael Kors Resort 2010 collection for Coco Rocha (minus a headwrap), while Hilary Rhoda chose a more revealing asymmetric number. Which model pulled off her style better at the 2009 CFDA Awards?

Rate or Slate: Heidi Klum's CFDA Award Shine
Heidi Klum definitely had the baby-mama-to-be glow at the CFDA Awards at Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall. Does the asymmetric, metallic Michael Kors look work for the supermodel?

Roving Reporter: Richard Chai
Richard Chai has been developing this tough-looking rock queen for a while now. Building on ideas from his last two collections,Chai presented the fashion crowd with gorgeous tartans, tough leather and fabulous furs. The muted palette of black, green, red, white and blue was combined to create edgy check prints and strong, colour-blocked separates. This strong-shouldered coat in leather had a slight 80s, Matrix feel, while the plaid dress was beautifully draped and very versatile.

Roving Reporter: Chris Benz
Chris Benz knows some of the seemingly conservative Upper East Side women in New York just want to go downtown and kick it. With that in mind, he presented a collection of 60s-inspired separates with a few dresses - whether zany-printed or simple and ladylike - thrown in for girls sick of bland office wear.
Mary Quant would be proud of the amount of leg flashed from these skirts, but Benz dulls the intrigue with opaque tights. I love the asymmetry of the grassy green dress, and the square-cut coat brings out another season trend.

Roving Reporter: Thakoon
Michelle Obama is now a fashion quantity - this we know. Eighties are back - I still say we'll probably regret it later. So put Nouveau Kennedy back 20 years, add a pinch of Russia and you have Thakoon Panichgul's latest collection.
Here we have elements two and three, with a light-grey swing jacket and Russian fur hat. Although I wonder if those at the Kremlin would be upset if Michelle wore it on a visit...Anyway, Thakoon played around with muted colours - cream, sheer camel, dusty rose - and spiced them up with fur, leather gloves and boots.

Roving Reporter: Erin Fetherston
Remember the sugary sweet designer who put her goodies in Target a few seasons back? She's still here (and so are the bows), but with focus on Nutcracker tin soldiers and a leaning towards the structural, Erin Fetherston is showing a different side of her aesthetic.
It started with this look - pretty telling for the rest of what was to come. Many of Fetherston's pieces were jackets, whether peplum or prim and proper, paired with statement skirts and graphic tights. And check the headwear.

Roving Reporter: Ohne Titel
We all know the recession is pushing fashion-lovers to buy pieces that last: classic and well cut are now the chicer cousins to trendy and notice-me-now. That could either work for Ohne Titel or against it. Designers Flora Gill and Alexa Adams, former members of Team Lagerfeld, sent out an edited collection of almost exclusively black tops and dresses, often accentuated with cowl necks, leather jackets and grey or black skinnies. Their garments were certainly keepable, but the question is whether consumers will see them as special enough to buy.
Karlie Kloss shows off one of the signatures of the latest Ohne Titel collection: major black boots. Last season's sheer trend continues on top, and the overall look keeps an Alexander Wang-style rocker vibe.
