NEW YORK, April 8, 2008—WWD Collections, the biannual magazine chronicling fashion on the runway, has named Marc Jacobs, Prada, Vera Wang and Yves Saint Laurent among the designers selected for their list of The Top Ten Collections for Fall 2008 in the current issue, on newsstands April 29th or for more information, visit http://www.wwd.com/issue/article/124061?page=0.

WWD’s Editor-in-Chief Ed Nardoza says, “New designers joined business standards to deliver all sorts of fantastic fare this fall – from fairy-tale reveries to a rigorously austere vision –WWD’s Top 10 did it with powerful results.” Notable Designers included:

-Marc Jacobs: With Sonic Youth performing live onstage, he sent out a collection that was calmly subversive yet rooted in great American sportswear.

-Miuccia Prada: She delivered amazing lace, serving up gutsy versions of that typically frilly fabric to strikingly austere effect.

-Vera Wang: She continued to indulge in her prettily disheveled inclinations with exquisite embellishments and a sultry-yet-nonchalant stance.

-Yves Saint Laurent: Stefano Pilati gave us new femme fatale, one who forgoes frippery for a clean, strong, graphic and supremely confident power-woman look.

-Alexander McQueen: Victorian Goth meets Indian Maharaja in his lavish fairy-tale reverie – a fascinating mix of real-world clothes and frothy bejeweled numbers.

-Narciso Rodriguez: He struck a deft balance between geometric minimalism, an oh-so-sexy attitude and the cool confidence his fans love.
