Yes, some stuff started Thursday, like the Gen-Art Emerging Designers show and the Eduardo Lucero and Louis Verdad shows at the BOXeight event at the refurbished St. Vibiana's Cathedral downtown, but hard-core fashionistas know that the real place to be all this week is in Culver City at Smashbox Studios, as five or six shows unfold every day. Sue Wong kicked things off on Sunday with her Modern Art show, a riot of silk dresses in bright colors that pay homage to that artistic movement. "I have a huge collection of modern art myself, which inspired me for this collection," the designer, who normally shows what she calls "nostalgic, romantic looks reminiscent of the 1920s and '30s." This collection, she says, is "more youthful, more energetic, more vibrant. Just more fun!" "Grey's Anatomy" actress Sara Ramirez and our favorite Calamity Jane, "Deadwood Deadwood, city (1990 pop. 1,830), seat of Lawrence co., W S.Dak.; settled 1876 after discovery of gold. A Black Hills tourist center, it is also a trade hub for a lumbering, stock-raising, and mining region. " (and now "Life") star Robin Weigert, were front-row fans of Wong's tribute to Matisse and Miro, but we doubt they'll try the wacky hair created by Beverly Hills stylist Maxime; that stuff was way out there. But the dresses were beautiful and flattering to even women who are not model-thin. Chick by Nicky Hilton was up next; along with her parents and a hammered-looking Jason Davis, Emmy winner Jamie Pressly and perennial party girl Bai Ling graced the front row, to see a line of cotton mini-dresses done in white, black or with a bright-red apple motif. And it seems Hilton is obsessed ob·sess v. ob·sessed, ob·sess·ing, ob·sess·es v.tr. To preoccupy the mind of excessively. v.intr. with bows, as almost every piece was bedecked with one. Her swan print, in soft blue and white, was the most successful look of the show, which one style maven in the crowd unfortunately characterized as "Wal-Mart ready." The day was topped off by Randolph Duke's return to the runway after a seven-year absence (and his first-ever L.A. show), and his line was anything but bargain basement. The couturier to the stars called his show The Living Earth, a collection inspired by "the natural beauty of California." Ferns, palmettos, cactuses and lotus blossoms played a big part in the designs, whose looks ran the gamut from daytime short shorts and bandeaus to bondage-wear-inspired leather bras to elaborate evening gowns without any visible means of support A term employed in Vagrancy statutes to test whether an individual has any apparent ability to provide for himself or herself financially. A person who has no visible means of support and loiters in a public place might be arrested and prosecuted for vagrancy. . Many of those flowy creations were so sheer up top that it was almost a porn show of naked breasts floating by, a look that probably will not make it too far past the runway. As stylist to the stars George Blodwell chuckled afterward, "I'm not going to be able to convince any of my celebrity clients to go that route, I'm afraid!" What will tomorrow bring at Fashion Week?
