February 3, 2007For fall 2007, Alexandre Herchcovitch started off his show with pretty, white peacoats, but the mood quickly changed as the pale models strolled out in a sea of blue and green florals, flannels, and paisleys finished off with straw hats that can best be described as farmer-esque. After a few chic black numbers, pieced together with scraps of vinyl and satin, came down the runway, the mood of the tent altered yet again. Eyebrows were raised as brave models walked out inready?garbage bags.

But the surprises weren’t quite over. The climax of Herchcovitch’s show definitely belonged to the two models that somberly walked out together in a brown and blue plaid jumpsuit and a long black coat that would have been cute if not topped off with a black chiffon veil that made her resemble a sad widow.

Though the wearability of the clothes is questionable, the show was deliciously eerie and stimulating. Gals, keep your fingers crossed that Hefty bags aren’t the next big trend!
