WARDROBE: And pouf, it's gone

Both New York magazine, and the New York Times declared the tent dress trend officially played out this week. Along with that goes the death of the pouf, babydoll, bubble and pretty much any other silhouette that moves away from the body and makes one resemble a woman in her fifth month of pregnancy. The whole poofy thing is being replaced by sharper, cleaner lines that accentuate the woman's figure. It all makes us marvel at how the lifespan of a trend is growing increasingly and increasingly shorter. We're sure that's thanks in no small part to the Internet making it so easy for women to identify and emulate what the popular looks are immediately after a collection is shown on the runway. We can't help but wonder how long fall's most obvious trends (all Marc Jacobs-fueled by the way) will last.
