Spring 2016 Fashion Month Favorites!

Whew! What a wirlwind month it has been. Personally, professionally, and fashion wise have all been out of control but a little chaos is good for the soul. Since this is a fashion blog, let’s talk about Fashion Month that went down this past September!

We tuned into an endless amount of fashion designers who showcased their creations to life for the Spring 2016 season. Hundreds of established, as well as new designers were ready for the world to see what their fashion perspective was for the future season to come. Twice a year we fashion lovers are able to see these artists inspirations, perspectives, and trend predictions in New York City, London, Milan, and finally the fashion mecca, Paris. It is a crucial time in the fashion industry! Retail buyers, fashion magazines and media attend each show in order to dictate what they want in their stores, advertisements, and on their celebrity clients for award show seasons, media outlets and everyday life. It is basically the Fashion Superbowl, fellas. With that said, let’s get into my Most Valuable Productions aka MVPs of Fashion Month.

Alexander Wang (New York)

Cool as cucumbers! Just undeniabley cool. For Alexander Wang’s tenth anniversary on the runway, he literally sent down the most wearable, downtown-chic collection I have seen in quite some time.

Vertical stripes, overalls, bomber jackets and fringe tinged outerwear all screamed “Let’s hit up Barney’s and Top Shop on our skateboards – with a bleezy.” The bleezy is optional, of course.

Gucci (Milan)

So amazing! Gucci hit the nail on the head with the 1970s explosion of trends that we are seeing, but took it to a whole different level. Geek, chic, colorful vibes is what I am feeling when I saw the Gucci. I would style all of my imaginery clients in a Gucci piece for the Spring. It feels like Slums of Beverly Hills all grown up!

Christian Dior

Raf Simons last show for French fashion house was exquisite. The collection was inspired by the beauty of the South of France. The color palette was so soft, pastelly, and light that it looks like ice cream. The shorts paired with oversized trench coats and fisherman jackets really gave it a street wear meets couture vibe.
