Fendi Spring/Summer 2018
Karl Lagerfeld‘s take on Fendi this season focused on Italian Futurism along with ’30s and ’40s silhouettes done in stripes and deep v’s all mostly forming triangular patterns. It was sharp, sleek, and sexy but perhaps most importantly, these days anyway, it was cool. Aside from the obviously fabulous leathers and mix of stripes and

Marc Jacobs Spring/Summer 2018
Marc Jacobs sent out a loud and vibrant collection this season, but like last season’s Hip-Hop ode, there was no music to set the tune of the vibe. The show was entitled “Somewhere” and the show notes stated, “During the last few months while friends vacationed, we took a holiday in our heads and went

Michael Kors Spring/Summer 2018
Manhattan to Malibu! Beverly Hills to Bora Bora! Michael Kors has always known how to dress the jet-set, but this season he was particularly inspired. Tie dye? Flip flops? Who would have thought? Carolyn Murphy opened the show in a lust worthy pink tie dye sweatshirt dress, but the trick is that it was made

Ralph Lauren Fall 2017
Va va va vroom! It was full speed as Ralph Lauren brought his Fall 2017 show to Bedford, New York where Mr. Lauren presented the collection in his garage where he houses his collection of pricey cars (Ferraris, Porches, Bugattis, et. al). The show opened with a slew of Ralph Lauren’s classic suiting—the kind that

Naeem Kahn Spring/Summer 2018
The drama! Naeem Khan loves to give a lot of look and a lot of embellishment much to the delight of all of his swans. But it was turn-of-the-century swan, Russian dancer Anna Pavlova, who he had on his mind. She was the prima ballerina of the Imperial Russian Ballet and Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes and

Coach 1941 Spring/Summer 2018
Paved with glitter, the models at coach came down the New York City pavement in mixture of slinky silk ’30s dresses with lace detail mixed in with Western rockabilly pieces. But this was, in fact, an ode to the famed ’80s graffiti artist Keith Haring. How so? Haring’s influence could be picked up in his

Gabriela Hearst Spring/Summer 2018
The beauty was in the details at Gabriela Hearst this season. Take for instance the fact that the merino wool used in the collection comes from the sheep on Hearst’s farm in her native Uruguay or that Mark Twain’s polka dot bow ties and pocket watch inspired a navy polka dot dress with chain link

Sally LaPointe Spring 2018
Wearable, sexy, and full of ease. Sally LaPointe delivered straight up elegant clothing this season in a light color palette with doses of metallic done with intricate hand embroideries. Lightweight cashmere sweaters and shawls were paired with cocktail skirts and jumpsuits in airy chiffons. “Spring 2018 is about being direct and moving forward,” said LaPointe

Carolina Herrera Spring 2018
In the garden of the MoMA, Herrera unveiled a riot of brightly colored dots and stripes in faintly nostalgic silhouettes. Her customer may be a dignified lady, but she is certainly no wallflower, and these joyful looks ensure that she’s the best-dressed at the ball—or The Grill!

Anna Sui Spring/Summer 2018
Summer of love! We hope the future is as bright and fun as Anna Sui is predicting. The designer has always steadfastly but freely marched to the beat of her own drum, but in a time when mixing wild prints is a thing, Sui’s style feels particularly relevant. No street wear here though, Sui’s woman
