Fashion week wraps up in New York February 18, with some of the biggest brands (Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren) showing on this last day. Here are the highlights so far.

Marc Jacobs - The US designer and his business partner Robert Duffy jointly tore away a paper curtain, kicking off a nostalgic show that has garnered nothing but raving reviews. The presentation for his Marc by Marc Jacobs show can be watched here.

Alexander Wang - New York's darling du jour failed to excite the crowd as much as Jacobs, but his velvet-y and grunge-inspired designs were symptomatic of general trends prevailing this season.

Charlotte Ronson - If you are the sister of Amy Winehouse producer Mark Ronson and DJane (and Lindsay Lohan's ex-girlfriend) Samantha Ronson, you are pretty much set for hipster stardom. And it helps that Charlotte Ronson's collection was actually good.
