I bumped into Stacy London backstage at Rebecca Taylor. She said that it’s the only fashion show she could make it to…and that’s thanks to special permission from “What Not to Wear.”
It turned out she had just come from doing the voiceover for the episode that was partially taped at the Mall of America, where I’d first met her. She said–it’s a reeeeeeeally good episode.

Anyway, about Taylor’s collection, London said that she doesn’t think she gets her due as a designer, especially at her contemporary price point. In the interest of full disclosure, London used to style Taylor’s show years ago. Now see her below gabbing with Aisha Tyler and Carmen Electra in the front row.
“She has intuition about what women look good in and what women want to wear,” London said. I couldn’t agree more. London had picked out look #27 for herself–the lace dress with a peach slip. I agreed and also loved these florals in color and black and white. Everyone loved the super-sparkly gold runway. How could you not?
