New York Designer hits Australia in Style




CELEBRITY New York designer Zac Posen


revealed his new collection for Target on Sunday for the final day of the Melbourne Fashion Festival.Unlike Stella McCartney, Posen is not a household name in Australia, but his designs have been worn by some of the world's most beautiful and famous women, including Aussies Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts.

Undoubtedly, his most famous dress was a white off-the-shoulder fishtail gown worn by Katherine Heigl, from Grey's Anatomy, at the Emmys last year. A similar dress is included in the Target collection. Posen, who is known in international fashion circles for his dedication to making clothes inspired by the female form, said the Target collection is for every woman.

"It's about women's personality, that's inspiration, and how clothing can elevate that and give her confidence and seduce her,'' Posen said. Posen said he was amazed by the quality of the collection because he was working with a smaller budget than he was used to.

Channelling Studio 54 with a Roman twist, the tuxedos and dresses may cause mass hysteria , as McCartney's did last year, when released in stores next month. But Posen did not expect this to happen, explaining his dad was not a famous rock star, unlike McCartney.
