Donna Karan’s Spring 2012 collection was heavily inspired by Haiti. Karan’s been spending a lot of time in the Caribbean country doing charity work since last year’s earthquake, and uses her celebrity to raise money for her own charity and several others.

For those who spend their days leisurely lunching and evenings attending benefit galas, Carolina Herrera’s spring collection has them covered. Aside from the strange fact that Nicki Minaj was front row, the ladylike collection, filled with floor-sweeping gowns (Renee Zellweger couldn’t take her eyes off a silver sequin–embellished white number) and tea-length sheaths, was conservative but classically chic.

The thought of getting out of bed for a 7am spin class makes most of us want to dive back under the covers, especially when working out involves wearing a nasty old gym shirt. Enter Michi, a hot new luxury active line that will have you out of bed and feeling the burn before you can say “calisthenics.”

With only New York done, it’s a little premature to pinpoint the key beauty trends for fall. That said, we’re definitely putting our money on metallics, thanks to some backstage intel from makeup artist Tom Pecheux who predicts they’ll be a major trend come fall. While we wait for the dispatches from London, Paris and Milan, we’ve picked some of the standouts from the city that kicked it all off.
