[LagerfeldBoy]

Phillip Lim for the accessories award! That man deserves it and has been on a roll with how his business is doing. Fantastic pieces at fantastic price points

 

[Not Plain Jane]

Go Tim Blanks!

 

[Psylocke]

Aren't the Womenswear and the Accessory Designer award nominees the exact same every year? Yeah I agree with LagerfeldBoy, 3.1. Phillip Lim accessories are outstanding, he deserves that one. Not the ideal moment to give an award to Riccardo Tisci, imo, I feel like he's stuck in a rut and hasn't delivered a decent collection in a while.

 

[Desi]

If Michael Bastian wins menswear, I will slap a geese mother.

Why they just didn't give Ryan Gosling the Style Icon award and call it a day?

 

[TheItGirl]

Happy for Tim Blanks, he deserves more recognition

 

[Chanelcouture09]

Alexander Wang will no doubt win the Womenswear award after the year and rightly so.

I agree with Psylocke on Riccardo Tisci, but although his collections are a repetition but however they are a hit with the stores/customers.

And I agree with Philip Lim being the right candidate for the Accessories award.

[kasper!]

Always these old names...

 

[ultramarine]

Colleen and Tim ! LOVE!

 

[valliaddict]

Marc Jacobs being nominated for anything at this point is such a joke to me. He's not a bad designer, but he's already shown us all he can do. He's not bringing anything new or exciting to the table, so I wish they would stop kissing his a** every year & nominate someone else for a change.

 

[Littleathquakes]

Out of the 3 womenswear nominees, the Proenza Schouler boys deserve it the most. I feel like Alexander Wang's nomination is more of a justification for his promotion at Balenciaga earlier in the year year. And agree re: Marc Jacobs.

 

[Thefrenchy]

Is it just me or is it always the same nominees when it comes to the womenswear award?

 

[HeatherAnne]

Agreed, zZzzZZZzz, same old names. The jewelry category is LOL, Pamela Love is still popular? Why?

 

[MicheleIman]

Agreed, zZzzZZZzz, same old names. The jewelry category is LOL, Pamela Love is still popular? Why?

Pamela Love is still popular because that style is still in the fashion community. I see her pieces all the time!

 

[Lee MG Tisci]

Out of the 3 womenswear nominees, the Proenza Schouler boys deserve it the most. I feel like Alexander Wang's nomination is more of a justification for his promotion at Balenciaga earlier in the year year. And agree re: Marc Jacobs.

i agree, i've never been really a fan of Proenza Schouler but their latest collection was truly outstanding.. they definitely deserve to win this time

 

[Flashbang]

Steven & Daniel did a great job and one of the highlight of NYFW menswear so I hope they win although I think Thom will get it...
For the Swarovski, I hope Tim Coppens win. I want his entire fall collection
