The Spirit Of World Fashion — New York Fashion Week

59

One of the most looked after and talked about event in world fashion is considered to be the New York Fashion Week. This September, the fashion week took the spectators by several pleasant surprises when the designers’ kaleidoscopic creations were adorned by the topmost models and witnessed in the front row by the best-of-the-best industry enthusiasts. The streets of New York were embellished by the glamorous attendants of various runway shows on the day.

Designers from around the world spelt magic on the runway shows by their top-notch designs and astounding creativity. In a play on diversity, Bibhu Mohapatra offered both traditional and sleek gowns, as in a blush off-shoulder number with a barely-there string along the neckline, and unconventional options you wouldn’t, at first, expect from the brand, like the sharp pleated top and skirt overlays that play on a balance of structure and movement. With this season of the New York Fashion Week, designer Prabal Gurung also celebrated the 10th anniversary of his label with a collection called ‘Who gets to be American?’ Gurung’s collection featured a variety of nods towards classic American sartorial style, including raw denim cargo bottoms and embroidered roses, the official flower of the United States.

With Tommy Hilfiger’s second and final collaboration with actor Zendaya and image architect Law Roach, the runway was lit up into a disco from the 70s. Velvet, leather, leopard print and faux snakeskin came in black, white and deep burgundies, choreographed into coordinated outfits. In the second part of the show, the clothes – and the moves – turned up the volume with metallic flares, dresses, halter-neck jumpsuits and suits. Bows, ties, hats and caps were apparent, set to blow out trends in the coming year. The Savage X Fenty show by Rihanna raised the temperature and glamour quotient in the runway too. Other designers like Kate Spade, Anna Sui, Michael Kors, among others also presented their runway shows.
