Spring Summer 2018 - New York Fashion Week

---

Another big name on the New York Fashion Week calendar, the great Michael Kors, has just presented their spring summer 2018 ready to wear collection. Full of relaxed shaped and pretty colours, the collection very much had a laid back surfer beach vibe to it. We can totally see ourselves in many of the pieces chilled out on a beach in Hawaii next summer.

The colour pallet was light with pastel colours bleeding into more vibrant shades, with many prints and tie-dye pieces running through. Shapes we very relaxed and cool, with the odd tailored jacket thrown over the top in certain looks. Trend wise, we definitely think that surfer style will be big next year, if you remember we posted on the Louis Vuitton Menswear collection a couple of months ago, which had surfer inspired pieces too. If the LV womenswear collection is similar to the menswear collection, we have two big designers sporting the water-sports trend for next season. So get ready to go all surfer dude next summer!

Tom Ford at New York Fashion Week

Spring 2018 Collection - New York Fashion Week

---

New York Fashion week has kicked off Fashion month, and one of the first shows, as always is the highly anticipated Tom Ford show.

The collection showcased the true Tom Ford style, with his famous menswear suits adapted to provide a key womenswear piece to this season's collection, worn over bralettes and deep plunging necklines. We also see many references to 90s glam, with low rise cargo pants, and diamante embellished pieces. Also cropping up were many bright colours, just check out that barbie pink. Will Barbie gone glam be the next big trend in 2018? Another thing to make an appearance is leather textures. If you read our piece last month from Copenhagen Fashion week, we speculated that dark leather for summer might be a thing we will see, and this no doubt confirms is. So make sure you keep a look out this fashion month for 90s inspired pieces, tailoring, Barbie pink and dark leather.

Day 8: New York Fashion Week, Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren.

Day 8 at New York Fashion week holds some very big, recognized names indeed with the kings of the New York Fashion houses. Firstly, Michael Kors, who is probably on every Park Avenue Princesses speed dial.

The Michael Kors has been repositioning itself into as luxury proposition with previous struggles with mostly outlet sales so what was the high end collection like this fashion week. The show this year was very much inspired by retro flower power, with many sixties silhouettes and bright colors and flowery prints. It was definitely an attempt to brighten things up with a happy factor after the tough times faced by the fashion house.

Accompanying the show was a live performance by Rufus Wainwright.

The other fashion house to present was none other than New York’s Ralph Lauren. The show was literally a traffic stopper, as the house closed the stretch of Madison Avenue outside the Upper East Side flagship store to use as it’s runway. Another label to go to see-now-buy-now, the AW17 collection was shown. The collection featured many references to western style, but with glitzed up sequined numbers with plenty of embellishment and fringing.
