As the garment draped clothes-hangers continue to stagger their way down the catwalk at New York Fashion Week, we are seeing evidence of a [marked trend towards minimalism](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galilee-by-sea). Nowhere was this approach more apparent than at Wayne Lee's Spring 2010 [RTW](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bruceglen) runway.

The majority of the collection from Wayne Lee consisted of mostly [black and white outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-tag-collection) with a the odd yellow, gray or metallic thrown in for good measure. Silks, knits and leathers were all used in abundance, and one of Wayne Lee’s biggest crowd pleasers came from the delicate design of the tights.
