KTZ Spring/Summer 2018

Chainmale- some made of soda can tabs, army green cargo pants and parkas- the later with graphic leather letter and arrow applique (omg, the matching socks: 🖤), knits gorgeously destroyed in a “trying too hard” kind of way, patches, the ever popular quilting, black boots with white paint platter…the KTZ Spring/Summer 2018 London Men’s Fashion…

Diane von Furstenberg Fall/Winter 2016 New York Fashion Week NYFW MBFW FW16

Of course, Diane von Furstenberg can bring the 70’s like no other: the DVF Fall/Winter 2016 New York Fashion Week  collection brings the 60’s mod squad into 70’s glamour in style with shirt dresses, the expected wrap dress, an adorable romper that’s a nod to the development of new materials, fur collar coats, and leather…

Cushnie et Ochs Fall/Winter 2016 New York Fashion Week FW16 MBFW NYFW

The Cushnie et Ochs Fall/Winter 2016 New York Fashion Week FW16 fashion show was full of sensual 90’s influence with spaghetti strap slip dresses, high slits, eye catching cut-outs, and asymmetrical looks that were both uniquely beautiful but also overworked with the ruffle theme- it got a little weird a few times.  The color palette included black,…

Tome SS14

Tome’s Spring/Summer ’16 collection embodied effortless minimalism.  Shirt dresses and coats, a 3-quarter length vest or sleeveless coat, and a palette of white and black, tan and camel, pink, and neon yellow.  Ruffles, paper-bag and peplum waists, and lots of frill filled the collection. Sheen fabric, either satin or a polished cotton/sateen; striped wool; perhaps some cottons and jersey; and black-and-purple-print…
