For her fall 2011 RTW collection, entitled American Legends, Diane non Furstenberg has lassoed the style and power of three unquestionable female  icons of power and style: Millicent Rodgers, Diane Vreeland, and Gloria Vanderbilt. Mrs. Furstenberg and her right hand man Yvan Mispelaear may have arrived to the States from foreign shores, but this show displays a clear enthusiasm for their adopted turf, channeling a general American pioneering spirit. Complete with wide-brimmed hats, fringy suede, gaucho jumpsuits, a horse-shoe shaped runway, and the usual vivid DVF color palette, New York Fashion Week took a turn towards the Wild West.
