Vera Wang introduced a new, more tailored look for her per-fall collection including structured outerwear adorned with beaded panels at the shoulders, fur patchwork at the hips, and black tinsel trimming.

You can tell a lot about a person by looking at their home-Vera Wang's is covered in rhinestones and tulle, Isaac Mizrahi's is perfectly printed in vibrant pink, Diane von Furstenberg's is dripping in leopard and lips, and Sean Combs' comes equipped with a helipad.

Although not real interiors, these papier-mâché houses were created by fashion celebrities coming together to raise money for the Women In Need charity. Each hand-decorated piece will be displayed in the windows of Saks Fifth Avenue in New York and auctioned on charitybuzz.com on November 9th. Check out the gallery below to find out what the houses decorated by Jennifer Lopez, Oscar de la Renta, Justin Timberlake and Trace Aylaya, and the Beckhams say about them.

For Resort, Vera Wang called up some of the themes she's been experimenting with in recent seasons. Dense metals, wisp-thin blouses and dresses and statement jewelry reappeared. The designer opted for flats on the runway, another piece of evidence that suggests sky-high heels are on their way out.

An edgy, rock-and-roll concept will always be better suited for Vera Wang's lower priced diffusion line, Lavender Label, and this Fall 2009 was no exception. The theme was "Medieval Mod" and allowed for layered metallics, hard and soft elements, and close-to-the-body silhouettes. Vera Wang's Fall 2009 ready to wear collection will show at the designer's SoHo Flagship during New York Fashion Week.

Vera Wang's Spring 2009 collection called up a new trend for Spring 2009, namely, layering organza. Sheer trends have been present for seasons now and Wang brought it to its most delicate point. The color palate, silhouettes, and ease at which she made this fussy fabric ready for day wear make this an outstanding collection indeed.
