TFW diary: The legging lives on (though we might not want it to) at Heather Lawton

Another day, another black legging… that’s the way it seems to go in the never-ending saga of the skin-tight trend we thought had disappeared along with La Lohan’s popularity. In her LG debut yesterday, New York-based designer, Heather Lawton brought an all-black collection of you guessed it… leggings, as well as a series of crinkled tees, silk button-downs and goat hair vests. A far cry from what we imagine Lawton’s picturesque Prince Edward Island upbringing must have looked like, the designer seemed hell bent on recreating the darkness of basement bars and back alleys of her current home. Aside from several tepid takes on these downtown staples, Lawton did show a few beautifully slung bag dresses with rope and goat hair entangled throughout.
