There will always be young designers trying their luck in the fashion biz, nascent talents like Behnaz Sarafpour and guerrilla stylist Imitation of Christ. There will always be a pantheon of one namers: Oscar, Donna, Calvin and Ralph. But apart from the unstoppable engine that is Michael Kors and the freakishly gifted Marc Jacobs, there are few American designers under 50 whose fare satisfies the fashionistas forlong...
...York City and America are very different places since last year's spring shows. But Posen's clothes haven't changed much. They're egocentric--all about themselves. In other, less hyped designers' shows, such as those of Behnaz Sarafpour, there's anevolution of thought that can be plotted. But perhaps Posen just has a youthful excess of business savvy and a desire to please, instead of rebelliousness. Maybe when he's 45,he'll be the most radical designer around. --With reporting by Benjamin Nugent
