Colorful spring collections dominate Fashion Week
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Mellow, beachy colors of ocean blue, marigold yellow and hibiscus pink dominated the runways Monday at New York Fashion Week.
The Peter Som spring 2009 collection is modeled during Fashion Week in New York on Monday. At right is New York Times photographer Bill Cunningham.
You were expecting black?
Designers tried to lighten a dour national mood for their spring collections with a sunny evolution of the popular fall colors of eggplant, mustard and midnight blue. For spring, they're relying on lighter lilac, marigold and teal.
"When the economy is not that good, we need to achieve, to do something even more special," Herrera told The Associated Press. "Women who buy your clothes have to be attracted with something so special that they need to have it."
Carolina Herrera added a dash of persimmon (reddish orange) mixed with graphic black and white, pairing a soft, etheral look with something more crisp.
When the "green" movement came into vogue, the color came along with it. Perhaps the presence of flowing, ocean blue signals the next front in that movement.
Monday's breezy collections were a respite from a celebrity-packed, frenzied weekend, but more excitement was to come. Marc Jacobs was to present his bellwether collection late Monday, part of eight days of New York Fashion Week shows that run through Friday.
CAROLINA HERRERA
At Carolina Herrera, the air and the runway were filled with feelings of civility, sophistication and luxurv.

The brand favored by A-lister Renee Zellweger, who was in the audience, consistently plays the
chic, well-heeled woman who has little interest in trends. Yet the lovely dresses with organza overlays or delicate ruffles fully played into the casual elegance that has been a strong theme during the first half of new season's style previews.
"The color and feminine details were very much her style," observed InStyle fashion director Cindy Weber Cleary. "In a season that could turn out tricky, her feminine sensibility looked fresh and beautiful."
PETER SOM
Som mixed textures — an organization shirt with tweed skirt, and a shiny linen taffeta dress — which gave the overall impression of chic clothes without stuffiness. Corset-style tops with fuller, flirty bottoms also provided some playfulness.
Peter Som's spring runway was a closet full of clothes for the young and beautiful set. The collection was an even mix of tropical colors and neutral earth tones, resortwear and cocktail dresses.

of her spring collection were done in floralss, especially a pale oleander-rose print used for a one-shoulder slip dress covered with appliqued flowers that served as the runway finale.
TRACY REESE
Furthering the good girl-bad girl theme that has been popular in the early going of Fashion Week, Reeze offered an ideal leather-and-lace ensemble: a taupe-colored buttery leather jacket with appliques and a lace tiered skirt.

R&B singer of 'Lovergirl' receives Pioneer Award
PHILADELPHIA — Teenna Marie was first recognized as an R&B talent in the 1970s when she signed a recording deal with Motown at the tender age of 19.
Now, the self-proclaimed "Ivory Queen of Soul" is being recognized for a nearly 30-year career that has included collaborations with industry giants from Rick James to Smokey Robinson, as well as a Grammynominated solo repertoire.
Teena Marie is one of nine artists receiving a Pioneer Award from the Philadelphia-based Rhythm & Blues Foundation at a gala ceremony Tuesday night.
Teena Marie, 52, has been a pioneer in more than one sense. Besides being a white woman in a mostly black genre, she also won a precedent-setting lawsuit against Motown in 1982.
The other honorees are Chaka Khan, Kool & The Gang, Bill Withers, The Whispers, The Funk Brothers, Donny Hathaway, Sugar Pie DeSanto and Al Bell. The awards were last given in 2006 by the R&B Foundation, which is dedicated to celebrating and preserving the genre, and to assist artists in need.
going to be there."
But her robust, soulful voice is what put her on the R&B map—and what has kept her there for nearly three decades. Admirers also cite her versatility; some of her later work includes a pairing with hip-hop star Kurupt, and her songs have

But the album did not feature Marie's picture — the only one of her records 12 without it. Marie said officials at Motown did not want people to know she was white; they wanted the record judged on its merits.
Born Mary Christine Brockert, Teena Marie began singing as a child in Los Angeles. She put out her first album, "Wild and Peaceful," in 1979 under the tutelage of funk legend James. In addition to producing the debut, James and Marie sang a duet called "I'm a Sucker for Your Love," which hit No.8 on the R&B charts.
been sampled by artists including Ludacris and The Fugees.
"I guess you could really call her a true soul sister," said R&B Foundation chairman Kendall Minter
"I'll never really know what dif-ference it made. I guess it worked," she said.
After three more albums with Motown, Marie wanted to jump to another label. Motown sued to stop her, but a California court ruled that a label cannot prevent an artist from recording for a competitor unless it guarantees the artist a certain amount of money per year. Marie then signed with Epic.
Her biggest hit, the Grammynominated over from the R&B to the pop charts and peaked at No. 4 in 1985. She earned another nomination for the song "I'm Still in Love," released on her comeback album "La Dona" in 2004.
