"    Photo: Getty   Backstage at Timo Weiland, between hugs from family and the start of the show, ELLE.com got a few minutes with Weiland himself, his business partner Alan Eckstein, and designer Donna Kang. We chatted with the gents earlier this week about the fall collection, which they described as &amp;quot;East London meets the countryside.&amp;quot; Now, moments before unveiling their collection, Eckstein elaborated for us: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s all very &amp;#039;weekend,&amp;#039;&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;We thought about the New York girl on a weekend trip, maybe to East London, touring around. She might dress up a little bit.&amp;quot; This fall, dressing up for the Timo Weiland girl means Tudor architecture-inspired separates in deep, rich colors and winter-ready fabrics.   For the first time, the designers went outerwear-heavy. &amp;quot;There are lots of options for outerwear,&amp;quot; Weiland said. &amp;quot;[We have pieces] that we&amp;#039;ve never done before but took a lot of time in the studio perfecting. We think it&amp;#039;s an evolution for the brand.&amp;quot; Another first for Timo Weiland was the live performance during the show. Models marched down the runway to three new songs (one of them a cover of Weiland&amp;#039;s favorite One Direction song) by Tracy Antonopoulos&amp;#039;s band Cable. We&amp;#039;re hoping the band will release the tracks, but in the meantime, we brought up the potential blizzard that may hit New York this weekend. When asked if fashion-week goers would dress accordingly, Weiland exclaimed, &amp;quot;Absolutely not!&amp;quot; Added Kang, &amp;quot;Well, we have the outerwear for it, so they can come see us.&amp;quot; See all the Fall 2013 Ready-to-Wear collections.
