Photography by Jenna Marie Wakani By Renee Reardin
As soon as my gaze fell upon the first model at the Rudsak fall 2011 show, I instantly thought of the ultimate city-chic icon Andy Sachs of The Devil Wears Prada hailing cabs in one coveted outdoor look after another while and breezing through the brisk streets of New York City. Like Rudsak designer Evik Asatoorian’s collections from seasons past, the look is one of metropolis-inspired style, with sleek leather jackets, shoes, and handbags, touches of fur, wool and down-filling, paired with long flowing hair. Favoured must-have items include the black minimalist leather jacket with a tie cinching the waist, the cognac leather jacket with endless trim of caramel-coloured fur lining the jacket and hood and one of the neon-bright motorcycle helmets that will get no more use from me than it did on the runway, it’ll merely act as my handbag!
