NEW YORK - Filmmaker-designer Tom Ford and rap superstar Kanye West fired the start gun on New York Fashion Week Wednesday, unveiling intimate A-list shows that proffered starkly different visions of women's attire. He laid on a sophisticated candle-lit dinner at Manhattan's swanky Four Seasons Restaurant for the likes of Tom Hanks, Julianne Moore, Alicia Keys, Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell. Guests were treated to a sit-down, champagne dinner that included smoked salmon and caviar on orchid-decorated tables. For men there were suede, corduroy and silk jackets and evening jackets with retro disco detail. "Pieces that you can pick up out of a vintage store in 20 years and say, 'Wow, I'm happy I have this.'"
