Bibhu Mohapatra Spring/Summer 2016 was like a dichotomy of this youthful original glamorous women that clashed with a demure grandma…it’s hard to reconcile the two. Round neck sleeveless shift dresses, grammy, sheer detailed wrap dress, granny top with lilac pants, sheer button-up with metallic tweed and white pants, weird silky satiny grandma print pants, cool…

Thomas Wylde SS16
Thomas Wylde’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection was bad-bitch rocker-chic, with cream looks touched with black contrasting details and metal cross and stud appliqués. Silk chiffon shirt dresses, hi-lo tops, separates, loose flowing tops contrasting form-fitting and even leather tube tops. The palette transitioned so well from white to cream, then to nude, with abstract prints in…
Fashion Comedy SS16: Vera Wang
Vera Wang’s Spring/Summer 2016 fashion show served up some Funny Fashion Moments. Below are some quotes I imagine Vera Wang saying when asked about her inspiration.
Jeremy Scott SS16
I first fell in love with Jeremy Scott the designer and artist with his 2010 fashion show featuring the trash bag and “Thank You” turned “Fuck You” bag looks (right). I’ve been scrutinizing his designs ever since, and have loved what he’s done with Moschino. For Spring/Summer 2016 Jeremy Scott proved he knows how to…
Concept Korea SS16
Concept Korea presented a refreshing collection for Spring/Summer 2016, which went against the grain of the cookie-cutter shows we’ve seen, focusing on the 90’s and grunge, and serving up a youthful inspired runway show complete with projections and a brilliantly choreographed production. The show began with the projection intro and I love that the hand…
Derek Lam SS16
Derek Lam’s Spring/Summer 2016 looked like an Asian take on Americana, with button-ups, trench coats, flared-leg pants and flared sleeves, A-line skirts, deep-v jackets and tops, and a palette of light blue, tan, camel, golden rod, navy blue, cream, gray, taupe, salmon, and plum. There were black and white ink-blot and a plum and white…
Public School SS16
The Public School Spring/Summer 2016 collection was seemingly comprised of silk pajamas and muddied prints, the majority of which was…eh…nothing to discuss. The looks I did find beautiful were ones which would’ve fit in amidst all the other designers’ collections, the layered sheer looks which are obviously of Asian influence, what with K-Pop likely having…
Monique Lhuillier SS16
Monique Lhuillier’s Spring/Summer fashion show played out beneath a dangling 3D set, and featured gorgeous beaded applique dresses and gowns. The show felt a bit rushed, and I found myself wondering if everyone dropped acid before it started or if this was choreographed in New York minutes. The palette included jewel tone emerald green, magenta,…
Francesca Liberatore SS16
My heart broke for Francesca Liberatore’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection. The palette was full of bold burnt orange, white, black, muted blue, deep plum, and golden-rod. I lived for the muted orange and pink, gray and pink, and bold red and pink glittering heart graphic details, which seemed to be foil appliqués topped with glitter. I’m…
Mara Hoffman SS16
The Mara Hoffman Spring/Summer 2016 Collection opened with a sky and clouds print button up and suit with a matching headband, blending in with the blue sky backdrop and wheat field. The print was followed up in the next design of a floor-length maxi, proceeded by a white blue and green ombre bird print, and denim jacket…
