LA Fashion Week Day 4: Jeremy Scott, Tart, Voom by Joy Han, Evidence of Evolution

Day four at LA Fashion Week featured collections by Tart, Beach Bunny Swimwear, Voom by Joy Han, The Gallery, Evidence of Evolution, and Jeremy Scott.

I can't say that I was crazy for any of yesterday's shows, but there were certainly a few highlights. Jeremy Scott, for instance, had fantastic disc hats on his models. They're obviously not much of a street wear look, but they added an unexpected proportion to his collection. It seemed plucky and fresh -- notes that were unfortunately ruined by the dirty chimney sweep/dog poop makeup that you can see on some of the models in the gallery.

Other notable moments include a show-opening appearance by Vince Gallo. The actor/director shuffled his way down the catwalk in an Evidence of Evolution jumpsuit. This was just too ironic since I've always thought Gallo had a missing link-look to him. So who better to open the Evidence of Evolution show than Mr. Cro-Magnon himself?

Beach Bunny Swimwear was fake-boob-overload, and Voom by Joy Han had a Japanese manga thing going on, which at least made the show interesting to watch.

We've picked out some of our favorites and our, well, least favorites for the Styledash LA Fashion Week Gallery. Let us know what you think.

Here are a few shots to check out:

Voom by Joy Han Fall 2007 at LA Fashion Week

We saw Voom by Joy Han yesterday with a bright turquoise cap-sleeve trench as a Dress of the Day, and the Fall 2007 collection, though a totally different look, still had that sort of fun, flirtatious feel. Models sported odd puffed out bowl-hair-cut styles which, embarassingly enough, my Mom forced on me when I was in elementary school.

However, the hair styles matched the retro-mod print on several of the dresses, as well as my favorite of the collection, an army green quilted puffer spacesuit dress. Of course, I would wear it without the blouse underneath. The dresses were feminine in shape (though somewhat shapeless), like the two shown on the left and right, and featured interesting designs printed on the fabric. The light, airy dresses paired with either black tights or thigh high boots? Awesome.

Dress of the Day: Voom Cap Sleeve Trench

The Cap Sleeve Trench is technically a coat, but it's made of 97% cotton with a little bit of Spandex, making it comfortable enough to wear alone as a dress. I mean really, with those itty bitty cap sleeves, would you wear this as outerwear? The dress comes in either bright aqua or red, has brass button detailing, and a tie belt at the waist. Eva Longoria wore it out and looked positively fantastic (though the picture doesn't flatter her at all).

The dress is available from Shop Intution for $215.
