NYFW diary: 6 shows, 3 shoe changes, 2 blisters, and 1 Lara bar
Six shows, three shoe changes, two blisters, and one Lara bar (no wonder fashion NYers are so skinny...no time to eat!) Hours into the day, I’ve got enough florals, pyjamas, and bright colours to last me a lifetime.
Peter Som started things off with a colorful bang, giving us acid-bright pinks, blues, and tangerines. Blown-up digital floral prints made a big impact, and the ‘60s influence we saw for fall made a strong showing in the form of box tops, swing shifts, and a cropped baby blue pant suit. On a more modern note, many of the pieces were paired with sporty, anorak detailing.
A little uptown, hosted in the cavernous and jaw-dropping Barishnikov arts centre, the mood of The Row‘s spring collection was decidedly starker. Guests mingled casually with the pint-sized Olsen pair pre-presentation—a welcome treat among the many exclusivities of fashion week—and sat down together to take in the beauty of an almost entirely white collection, featuring layers of luxe silk and chiffon, pyjama pants with mother of pearl detailing, and what felt like diamond-dusted embroidery sparkled on far-East inspired, modern-cut kimonos. The collection was all at once over-the-top ornate and perfectly acceptable boudoir attire. Speaking of, I think I’m ready for bed! More coverage from Day 1 coming up shortly! Until then, my pretties...
