musings and observations from the nycstylist team
The dresses worn on the red carpet at the Golden Globes made a loud statement. The men and women of Hollywood all wore black to show their support of the #MeToo movement. Here are some looks from past Golden Globes that resemble those worn this year.
Many celebrities have a very distinct style. Here we have taken looks from the New York Pre-Fall 2018 shows and paired them with the perfect celebrity.
The 1990's were known for trends such as denim on denim, slip dresses, and grunge. Here are some Spring/Summer 18 looks that definitely used inspiration from the 90's.
These Spring/Summer 2018 runway looks drew inspiration from works of art. Classic paintings from famous artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, Claude Monet, and Jackson Pollock have been transformed into garments worn today.
On day 6 (and a bit of day 2) of NYFW we saw similar design elements on different silhouettes and runways. However, the application of the designs were unique for each designer. Oscar de la Renta added a multicolor paint splatter, Carolina Herrera incorporated an abstract confetti-like design, Neubyrne used colorful paillettes and Rosie Assoulin arranged a rainbow of sea shells across her canvas.
Chilly mornings and lingering winds seem to not have coordinated well with the calendar's seasonal changes. Thankfully the Spring 2017 collections of Burberry, Oscar de la Renta, Valentino, Céline and Stella McCartney have given us inspiration and hope for these cooler days.
Take Advantage of Sweater Weather: Designer Christopher Bailey of Burberry reimagined the traditional cable knit sweater by transforming it into a layered one-shoulder shawl. Bailey’s vision translated into a flattering silhouette despite the unconventional lines of this architectural look.
Love the Jumper: One of many essentials for early Spring weather, Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia of Oscar de la Renta share their love for cocktail tunics and day-to-night jumpers in their Spring 2017 collection.
Layer Up: There's no ignoring the low evening temperatures and blowing winds. The Valentino Spring 2017 collection featured a variety of floor-length trench coats to play on designer Pierpaolo Piccioli's romantic vision of complimenting lengthy gowns and flowing skirts.
Embrace a Lighter Color Palette: The Spring 2017 Céline runway was filled with earth-toned hues of white, blue, black, and brown. A soundtrack of city traffic and children’s voices played through the venue to emphasize the collection's transparency of a day in the wearer's life.
Relax in Looser Fits: Designer Stella McCartney took to light fabrics and relaxed fits with oversized jumpers, tops and trousers. A combination of full-coverage in light fabrics helps our Spring mentality embrace the last of this Winter weather.
Bright whites and dark hues dominated the New York Fashion Week runway on Tuesday. Contrasting designs by Oscar de la Renta, Proenza Schouler, Lela Rose and Zimmermann were some noticeable impressions.
Oscar de la Renta designers Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia debuted the Fall/Winter collection aside their own growing label, Monse. The de La Renta collection featured bold monochromatic pieces, classic silhouettes and traditional cigarette pants.
The Lela Rose collection aired a sense of "lightness" with pastel hues, feminine silhouettes and her signature floral prints.
The Proenza Schouler collection featured cut-out dresses layered with leather, chiffon and knit fabrics. The brand showed a sophisticated edge through leather D-ring belts, fur-lined overcoats and the pairings of graffiti-printed tees with classic ankle-length pleated skirts.
Designer of Zimmermann, Nicky Zimmermann, discovered vintage photographs of female university students playing cricket after the World War I era and was inspired by the strength and delicacy of women in the 1920's. Drawing from that inspiration Zimmermann's collection showcased oversized pinstripe suits, lace flounced dresses and tall leather boots.
Stripes
Stripes were all over the runway yesterday, heading in every possible direction and across all styles imaginable. Fashion has an anything goes attitude and stripes are no exception.
Here are a variety of Day 6 runway favorites to incorporate stripes into your wardrobe. These looks are from Proenza Schouler, Oscar de la Renta, Rag and Bone and Lela Rose.
