As Mercedes Benz Fashion Week wraps up, I already have a long shopping list of what I must find once Spring clothes hit the shelves. While I’m aware that this is months away, the collections this year were so beautiful that I’m going to have to start saving up in order to stock my closet with the affordable versions of the designs I saw this week.

And although it’s hard to play favorites with the many diverse collections that walked the runways, there are five fabulous designers that really stood out amongst the prints, sky high heels, and oversized accessories at this year’s NY Fashion Week. Fashion Week MVPs, if you will

The Fashion Week All-Stars.

LELA ROSE

Even if you don’t follow designers, you may know Lela Rose from her collaboration with Payless. Her collections are typically a little more mature, but this talented lady really stepped it up this year with a colorful, sporty collection for Spring 2010. The unusual color combinations will be something for a seasoned fashionista to play with this Spring. Classic touches such as tweed bottoms grounded the neon color scheme and added an interesting twist to spring clothing. Lela Rose made people re-think spring style and it is that innovation that makes a great designer.

REBECCA TAYLOR

Ladylike floral dresses were hardened by studs and cropped blazers at Rebecca Taylor. Electric patterns were found throughout the collection; even the sweetest colored dresses were paired with bright shoes. The collection was fresh and cool with strong silhouettes balancing out the signature sweet and flirty pieces. The color palate was unique, as were many of the patterns paired together. And I wanted to wear every last piece. Rebecca Taylor, you are a genius.

MARC BY MARC JACOBS

Always a crowd favorite, Marc Jacobs did not disappoint during his little-sister collection, Marc by Marc Jacobs. Though the headbands were reminiscent of the bunny ears seen on the runway during the Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2009 show, much of the collection was fresh and exciting. Jacobs incorporated tribal prints and accessories into more traditional shapes, creating completely unique and exciting looks. A far cry from his signature collection, Marc Jacobs created pieces from fun, colorful patterns, making it one of the all-star collections this season.
