Fashion Week

To keep an eye on the latest styles, the fashion press convenes in New York City each spring for a week of designer shows. At one, Isabel Toledo presented a white cotton shift ($450) paired with Manolo Blahnik stiletto heels ($850) and the body of model Nicole Anderson ($750 an hour). "We wanted a superconfident, very sensual look, and stilettos make the girls walk beautifully," says Ruben Toledo, Isabel's husband and business partner. "They don't feel important in flats."
