New York Fashionweek, Part 1












I think almost everybody knows New York Fashionweek has started a few days ago. Ofcourse i will be covering the Big 4! For everybody that does not understand this language, the Big 4 consists out of NY, Paris, London and Milan Fashionweek. I'm always curious to see what all the designers have come up with for the next season. New York fashionweek is the first to be covered and i will doing this in parts. I've selected my 4 favourite looks from my 4 favourite designers. 

1. Jason Wu: I was a bit surprised when looking at this collection. I love how he incorperated his background into this collection. He takes us back to his roots but he also takes us with him to the present. It's his most adult collection so far. I especially love how he made the oh so familiar business suit exciting again by adding fur and embroiderie.

2. Helmut Lang: With their second season on the runway Nicole and Michael Colovos left a mark. I think that every fashionlover will recognize the signature on this collection. Leather, black, white and assymetrical are some keywords for their collections. This season the designers decided to play with these characteristics, but also went on a inovative tour. The bold prints and ruby red color were new and daring for them and it worked out great! 

3. Peter Som: I didn't see this coming! I was expecting more prints and colors but got crisp and fresh minimalism. This collection was uber feminine to me. Where the fur, flowy dresses and see-through skirts made the collection sexy, the leather gave it an edge.

4. Yigal AzrouĆ«l: This was sort of an discovery for me. I've never really looked at this designer, but it was a pleasant surprise. I looked at his previous collections and saw that he's not stranger to leather and fur. Anyway,  the clothes exude femininity and strength.
