Gotta Prada: Susie Bubble and Bryanboy at Prada Resort 2019

Prada held its 2019 resort show in NYC on Friday. Thank you, Miuccia, for coming to New York when even some American designers have gone the opposite way across the pond! The show attracted an international crowd of celebs and fashion insiders, including Susie Bubble and Bryanboy, looking super cute together in matching Prada. A close up after the jump.  (more…)

Long Story: Emily Mortimer at Chanel’s Tribeca Film Festival Dinner 2018

Emily Mortimer wore Chanel’s classic monochrome black and white to the Tribeca Film Festival dinner, including a floor-length pleated maxi skirt. We really did not see many midi-length skirts at this fashion event despite their popularity in previous seasons. It was either mini or maxi and hardly anything in between.

First Bloom: Lucy Chadwick at Collina Strada FW2018

Lucy Chadwick in an outfit that would work well today in NYC: the boots and coat can handle the slush, but the sheer floral skirt hints at spring.

Cold Shoulder: Carlotta Oddi at Gucci SS2018

We saw so much of this ribbed Calvin Klein sweater with cut-outs at the shoulder during  fashion month. Carlotta Oddi wore hers with a paneled maxi skirt and boots. Cut-outs at the shoulder are still on-trend in knits and silk tops, although with a hard, straight line like a tank top, not the scooped out shoulder that has been done ad infinitum.

In the Red: Shiona Turini at Carven SS2018

Headscarf, Sweatshirt and Long Skirt, NYFW SS2017

Streetwear is making major inroads into high fashion – but within this development lies a major possibility for error. Unless you’re still actually in gym class, you probably don’t want to go for a head-to-toe streetwear look. Here is one way to wear the chunky, oversize sweatshirts that are already appearing in stores for fall. A guest at NY Fashion Week mixed hers with a long tiered skirt, heels, patent leather bag and a headscarf for a perfectly polished outfit that was also on trend.

Luxe Layers: Susie Bubble at Carven SS2017

Susie Bubble at Carven SS2017

One item we spotted several times during fashion month: sheer tulle skirts worn over skirts or jeans. They may not add much in terms of warmth, but they do add some whimsy and glamour to an outfit, as seen on Susie Bubble at the Carven show in Paris.

I Zig, You Zag: Charlotte Groeneveld at Carven SS2017

Charlotte Groeneveld at Carven SS2017

The zig zag knit, popularized by Missoni, is a classic that never goes out of style. It’s also a cozy way to sweater-dress. Charlotte Groeneveld wore a zig zag knit sweater and dress by Chloe to the shows in Paris.

All About the Mix: Athena Calderone at Giulietta FW2016

Athena Calderone at Giulietta FW2016

Stripes, solids, and a pop of print and color that acts like a colorful throw pillow – the kind of mix that an interior designer might put together, or in this case, design and lifestyle blogger Athena Calderone of Eye Swoon.

Gilda Ambrosio at Dries van Noten SS2016

Gilda Ambrosio at Dries van Noten SS2016

Street style-wise, this has been the season of Gilda. The Italian fashionista has tapped into the ’70s zeitgeist that’s been percolating since Alessandro Michele took over at Gucci. Her center part and retro shades, personal style trademarks of hers for years already, add to a sexy, louche look that’s also beautifully put together.
