Isaac Mizrahi's Fashion Week Fuel: Champagne Truffles, Chocolate Bark

Last week, Isaac Mizrahi presented the fall 2009 collection he designed for Liz Claiborne (fetch a March issue of something and check out the brand’s newly Mizrahified identity in the spirited spring ad campaign) at his Manhattan studio. Tomorrow afternoon, the designer shows his own collection for fall—inspired by Africa, lumberjacks, and flappers—in one of our all-time favorite Fashion Week venues: the New York Public Library’s Astor Hall. How’s he preparing? Lots of work, of course, fueled by some of his favorite sweets.
