Coach: Ready-to-wear SS17
Stuart Vevers put on a show last night for Coach SS17. This was roadside America. The Southwest. Centre stage? A pile up centre stage of old chevvies and cadillacs. Which was his inspiration, apparently. Well, more specifically, the work of American photog
Rodarte: Ready-to-wear SS17
The spirit of Rodarte SS17 was the Spirit of the Beehive, apparently. Because they told us so. “It all started with the bees,” Kate Mulleavy said backstage after the show. This was a magical moment. Ephemeral. Pollen and honeycomb were imagined
A Look At Jonathan Saunders’ First Collection At DVF
To say the models in the DVF Spring Summer 2017 lookbook are striking a pose would surely be an understatement. And it’s no surprise that these girls are clearly enjoying themselves, it would be hard not to in these lively getups.
DKNY: Ready-to-wear SS17
Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne aren't looking back. Nope. DKNY SS17 is the future of New York, apparently. “Neo Soho,” they call it. That's minimal American street style to you. So there we sat, on The High Line above the
Rag & Bone: Ready-to-wear SS17
Rag & Bone. What springs to mind with Rag & Bone? It's rock and roll. Always. And that didn't change for SS17 which marked Marcus Wainwright's first solo show at the house after the departure of David Neville. And it
Thom Browne: Ready-to-wear SS17
Let’s get this out of the way. “Everything started with Slim Aarons and his photography, loosely referencing wetsuits and the idea of how it’s one piece.” This was the inspiration Thom Browne told me backstage after his SS17 show. But
Oscar de la Renta: Ready-to-wear SS17
It’s a new dawn at Oscar de la Renta. Well almost. The new creative directors taking over from Peter Copping have been announced, Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia of Monse, and they were there too. Front row though, not backstage.
3.1 Phillip Lim: Ready-to-wear SS17
3.1 Phillip Lim threw a party. Well, a party circa late 1950s Nashville. Or, as the theme told us, "midnight at the Victorian rodeo." And so we arrived, the room lit blue with remnants of flowers and leaves scattered on the
Proenza Schouler: Ready-to-wear SS17
Proenza Schouler was about handkerchiefs. As in, not the ones you blow your nose on, but handkerchief-hemmed dresses. And skirts. A fact that demonstrated that yes, the Schouler boys really are quite the magicians when it comes to fabric. Because
Jeremy Scott: Ready-to-wear SS17
Jeremy Scott's shows are bit like going to some sort of fabulous candy bar when you just don't know what to pick. You want (quite literally) everything. For SS17, Scott took us in a time machine back to the '80s.
Opening Ceremony: Ready-to-wear SS17
Pageant of the People. That was the idea behind Opening Ceremony’s SS17 presentation. Think of it as a sort of pageant, hosted by Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein of Portlandia, asking models Miss World style questions as they took to
Prabal Gurung: Ready-to-wear SS17
Prabal Gurung has soul. His SS17 collection was an exploration of modern feminism, inspired by Gloria Steinem's ‘My Life On The Road’. My, we love a social and political activist. And we love to put up a good fight. Naturally, then, Prabal's
Altuzarra: Ready-to-wear SS17
"Did I ever tell ya that this here jacket represents a symbol of my individuality, and my belief in personal freedom?" Sailor (Nicolas Cage) asked Lula (Laura Dern) in David Lynch's Wild At Heart. Probably something along he lines of
Hood By Air: Ready-to-wear SS17
Hood by Air was a veritable assault of ideas. So excuse us for the stream of consciousness. First thoughts? There is some sort of substance on the model’s heads. A bit like they'd just been birthed. Similar looks can be achieved
Victoria Beckham: Ready-to-wear SS17
Another chapter in the Victoria Beckham evolution. On a sombre day in New York City, it begun with two minutes of silence before the show began. And if the show itself wasn't sombre, it was tranquil. As usual, VB's girls
