Kelly Osbourne, Peaches Geldof and Ellie Goulding make for an all-star front row at Charlotte Ronson's vintage-inspired show


Charlotte Ronson's show was the big celebrity draw last night, with guests including Kelly Osbourne, Mandy Moore, Ellie Goulding, Rose McGowan, Peaches Geldof and LeAnn Rimes lining the front row.
The designer sister of Mark and Sam stayed true to form with a vintage-inspired collection that paid homage to the Twenties, Thirties and Forties.
Loose drop-waist dresses, which are proving to be a Fashion Week theme already, came in sunset hues, while delicate pastel floral prints adorned slinky slips and midi skirts.

Summer knits had shirt-style collars and colourful zig-zag stripes, lending a grungy look when layered with chiffon slips and tailored shorts.
It was the star-studded front row that gave this show the X-factor though - probably one of the most celebrity-heavy at New York Fashion Week so far.
The designer's twin sister Sam was DJ for the event, while Peaches Geldof, who was seen with arms slung around boyfriend Thomas Cohen throughout, and Kelly Osbourne, who wore curious white gloves with her grey frock, rallied in support.

Mandy Moore, LeAnn Rimes and Rose McGowan were all dressed to impress in rather formal looks, while Nicky Hilton, Louise Roe and Ellie Goulding went for Downtown looks more in keeping with Ronson's signature aesthetic.

 
Also showing last night was Alexander Wang, who attracted industry royalty Carine Roitfeld, as well as Lea Michele, Linda Evangelista, Zoe Kravitz and Courtney Love.

There was far more colour than in recent collections, with neon hues adding energy to sheer laser-cut tunics in almost Aztec prints.
His sportswear signature got a makeover with a 'surrealist' pixellated floral, while his much-loved accesories appeared to have been supersized into weekend and golf-style bags.

Other highlights yesterday included Christian Siriano and Monique L'Huillier, while today's biggest shows were Victoria Beckham, Derek Lam, DKNY and Tracy Reese.
It remains to be seen whether Gwen Stefani will turn up to her L.A.M.B. show later - last month sources claimed she would be too busy recording her new album to attend.
Later this afternoon Diane von Furstenberg will present her new spring/summer 2012 line, followed by Thakoon, Zac Posen and Tommy Hilfiger.

But things look set to get only busier over the next few days, with big hitters Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein, Michael Kors and Carolina Herrera still to come.
New York Fashion Week wraps up on Thursday when the biannual fashion tour moves on to London.
