Cat got got a little distracted this week. But here’s a glimpse at the best and worst of the Monday Fashion Week shows. More of the same trends: volume, bubble skirt, high-waisted pants and sack dresses. Don’t say you haven’t been warned.
For a full look at the collections, visit www.mbfashionweek.com.
Getty Images The detailing on this Carolina Herrera dress is just stunning. Cat loves how Deco it is. Getty Images This Jill Stuart mod dress is so Pan Am! Getty Images How gorgeous is this Ellen Tracy? Cat so wants to be this woman swooping into her office. Getty Images THE GOOD: There are few designers who make such classic, stunningly beautiful dresses as Oscar de la Renata. He does it again with this neckline. Wow.
Getty Images Cat covets this Kai Milla ensemble. Sure it’s basic black, but the proportions are modern and elegant. What girl doesn’t want to look this sophisticated at least some of the time? Getty Images The model is a knock out in this Kai Milla gown. Getty Images This Max Azria dress is just kooky enough to endear Cat. Getty Images There is just something about this Generra tunic that Cat finds sweet and endearing — and yet not cloying. The neckline, the sleeves, the pockets. It all just works.

Getty Images Layering is all good. Cat loves to layer. But this? What were you thinking, Generra? Getty Images Cat may have loved Jill Stuart’s View From the Top-esque dress above, but there’s no excuse for this Black Christmas catastrophe.
Getty Images Kai Milla made it into Cat’s favorites not once, but twice. And then there’s this, which just makes it look like some fungus has attacked the poor girl’s bust. Either that or she has serious grandma boobs. Getty Images THE BAD: Cat’s pretty sure she saw this Luca Luca dress in Grease 2. You know, the one where Michelle Pfeiffer dons a Christmas tree dress for the school pagent and swoons over “cool rider”? Getty Images This is really Carolina Herrera. Who would have guessed? Getty Images THE AMUSING: Has Luca Luca ever even been to Aspen. It’s cold there, and personally, Cat gets cold. At least it looks good. Getty Images It pains Cat to say anything bad about Oscar de la Renta, but seriously. What must he think of us if wooly mammoth boots and jacket over tights and a long sweater are what he considers apres ski? Stick with the gowns, Oscar. Leave the slopes to us.

Help, help! I’ve been attacked by a killer lampshade. Or perhaps it’s a shower wrap. I don’t know, just somebody get me out of this Max Azria atrocity.
