New York Fashion Week: At Peter Jensen

Sarah Sophie Flicker, filmmaker and host of The Citizens Band

I went to New York this week to attend the panel on fashion blog ethics at the "Evolving Influence" conference. Aside from the conference, the only other thing I had time to see was the presentation of Peter Jensen at Milk Studios, where I met Sarah Sophie. Most New York style is, in my humble perspective as an infrequently-visiting foreigner, an illustration in trying too hard to follow the trends along the rules they ostensibly require, resulting in brand-loaded outfits that lack the personal touch. Sarah Sophie is clearly a stand-out. Her personal style is obviously inspired by the 1920s and goes oh so well with her light skin and striking features. Unfortunately, I forgot to ask her where she got that delicate headpiece, but I guess it is vintage.
