Private Policy’s Spring/Summer 2021 collection was a well executed, perfectly edited and cohesive yet still design-playful collection in its exploration of fashion when met with color palette, graphic prints, utility and wearability: beyond the now common utilitarian pockets- straps, buttons, and harnesses allow the garments to be worn and carried in a more versatile way….

Milan Fashion Week Fall 2020 FW20 AH20
Below you’ll find my favorite looks and pieces from various Milan Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2020 runway shows and collections from designers such as Dolce and Gabbana, Moschino, Gabriele Colangelo, and more. Dolce and Gabbana’s tailored jackets caught my eye- I love a double lapel as much as a collar, and can appreciate the combination of…
Rick Owens Fall 2019
Rick Owens Fall 2019 featured SFX Runway Makeup, beautiful silhouettes and lines accentuating the shoulders, and had a unique take on making use of different planes of the body in this Utilitarian craze we’re seeing this season. What with his publicity stunts in the past, it was easy to overlook his genius, and I’m glad…
Ann Demeulemeester Fall 2019
Ann Demeulemeester Fall 2019 combined menswear and tailoring, pushing the envelope with the construction- the overlaid contrast lapel, for example, was so uniquely original. Red silky satin brocade, black pinstripe and solid black suiting with contrast silk satin sleeves, and white shirting. I love the proportions: the length of the vests, the sleeve cuffs, the…
Manish Arora Fall 2019
Manish Arora’s Fall 2019 collection really would benefit from editing because some of the garments and accessories are really cool but may be overlooked within the hoard of design splayed onto the runway: it’s an overdose of color, print, texture and fabric selection. The object bags are amazing- tea pots, sharks and fish, vehicles… The…
Courréges Fall 2019 Runway Beauty
Courréges Fall 2019’s show was stolen by the Runway Beauty with top lashes used as bottom lashes, red and orange shadow contrasting blue on the lower lash-line and visa versa, a peachy orange soft smokey eye, exadderated yet soft white brow-bone contour, extra lashes under the eyes entirely, and use of unusual materials for lashes. …
Anrealage Fall 2019
Anrealage Fall 2019 was like a PSA for garment care instructions, only it seems the models have shrunken in the dryer- not the clothes. We haven’t seen proportions like this since LFW years ago, although this collection takes it to a whole new level with avant-garde takes on oversized jackets, lapels, and buttons; giant patch…
Vivetta Fall 2019
Jeepers Kreepers…why’d they cut out peepers? Jeepers kreepers…hats just don’t need eyes. Vivetta presented questionable, plagiarized, and brilliantly conceived and executed designs for Fall 2019. While I hate the peephole hats and poor copy of Jeremy Scott’s teddy bear designs, I found the embellished florals with Lilly of the Valley appliqué absolutely remarkable.
Gucci Fall 2019
Gucci Fall 2019 mixed goth with victorian era and 50’s styled with a touch of horror to put on a sumptuous show slithering with snake skin, leather, spiked collars and masks, weird ear pieces, all contrasting the light flowing sheer chiffon, silk, lamé, complete with cravats and frill. Those green skin pants with the mustard…
Prada Fall 2019
Prada Fall 2019 killed it in the boot department- those combat boots with and without straps and pouches are to die for solely for the sole. I’m sure the shades will look great on some and ridiculous on most, but they’re unique and cool nonetheless. The prints and appliqués definitely made the garments pop off…
