The Hudson Hotel looks a lot like a Hilton during Charlotte Ronson's show. Paris is in the house!

"I've known Charlotte since I was a teenager and moved to New York and I think every season it just keeps getting better and better," says Paris who swops the sexbomb look for demure, side-swept hair.

Ronson's show is as much a lesson in fashion as it is in literature.

"It was a modern take on Little Lord Fauntleroy. My girl is creative, smart, a little bit spooky. She's a hopeless romantic. The collection has a strong handsome feel but still very feminine," says the designer.

The downtown girl vibe is very alive throughout Ronson's collection -- take your pick of romantic dresses with big red lip imprints all over them -- like leopard -- only lips! Her color story is dark.

"The colors are a darker palette, black, burgundy and bright navy. The prints have deep colors but still muted," says Ronson.

Actress Julie Henderson feels the presentation has got her covered.

"I come to the show every year. I always love it. Things you can wear day, day to night. It's always fun, flirty and feminine," she says.

Jesse Metcalfe takes it in first hand with fiance' Cara Santana.

"We are really supporting the family. We are really big fans of the Ronson family. It's a really cool presentation, really wearable clothes," says Metcalfe.
