Fashion Week Recap: Day 5

Tough biker-inspired looks at Phillip Lim, brocade dresses at Zac Posen and "healthy" cookies from Karlie Kloss and Momofuku Milk Bar.

With just two days (okay, three including the Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren shows on Thursday) remaining, beleaguered Fashion Week attendees were energized by 3.1 Phillip Lim's "biker" inspired collection, a spectacularly luxe presentation by The Row (staged in an Upper East Side townhouse), and—perhaps best of all—news of Karlie Kloss' healthy "Perfect 10" cookies for Momofuku Milk Bar.
