Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2019
Balenciaga gave one of the finest runway shows this year. The whole concept consisted of future meeting present. I loved all of the elements they added in, from the touch of casual with denim to the fashion forward neon. Photos by Vogue It is very rare you will find denim making its a runways debut so chicly, but if anyone could make it happen it is Balenciaga! On this very special runway for spring/summer 2019, Balenciaga created a whole entire world to surround this collection. The lights reflecting off of every wall, and the audience getting an up close look at the designs walking down the runway were all put…

Koché Spring/Summer 2019
Fashion Month saw many different styles and aesthetics on the runways, but the Koché runway is possibly the easiest collection to grab right off the runway and wear. This entire collection is street style goals white also being completely chic and runway ready! Photos by Vogue Unlike the many other designers who are all trying to outdo one another in the who can create the wildest and most memorable collection stakes, Koché has taken a decidedly regular turn. No, nothing in this collection will blow your Gucci socks off, but that doesn’t make it any less beautiful or elegant. Koché took a step back this season with a collection that…

If the saying “Save the best for last.” is actually true, then Fashion Month is doing it right! With the end of Fashion Month, which is basically the whole month of September, comes Paris Fashion Week. This fashion week is different than the other three cities we have already seen this month.

Burberry Spring/Summer 2019 for Women
When Burberry name Riccardo Tisci the Chief Creative Officer of the brand back in March of this year, everyone wondered in which direction he would take the Burberry brand. The excitement surrounding his introductory collection for the brand gave London Fashion week a Monday boost. Photos by Vogue Burberry is widely known as a fashion brand built into the British DNA. Evidence of the cultural staple that Burberry is in England shows up in the classic trench coat. Like at New York Fashion Week, London Fashion Week is proving to us that the trench coat is going to be the “it” product for spring and summer 2019. But this isn’t…

Burberry Spring/Summer 2019 for Men
In some ways, I almost feel like the designs that were wore by the men on Burberry’s 2019 runway were better than even the ladies. Look through the photos below and then I will explain why I am saying the men’s designs are better. Photos by Vogue Don’t get me wrong, I loved the fascination with the trench coat for the ladies’ designs, but I just felt like the men had more variety. One of the aspects I value most about fashion is variety. If I can mix and match this in new and fun ways, I am one happy girl! I just feel like the women’s collection was too focused…

Erdem Spring/Summer 2019
London Fashion Week is officially in full swing! One of my favorite runways every year is the Erdem fashion show. This show always brings together all of my favorite aspects of fashion: modernity, nostalgia, and simplicity. Let’s have a closer look at this year’s collection shall we… Photos by Vogue From the moment I saw the first pieces of this collection, they not only caught my eye but also my imagination. The sun hats, structured shoulders, and un-obnoxious floral prints all playfully work together to create a memorable collection. The use of accessories, as we saw at New York Fashion Week, once again reign supreme on the London runways. Even…

Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 2019 for Men
The men’s fashion at this year’s Ralph Lauren show was something rich and aspirational! The materials used, much like in the women’s collection, were mixed and beautifully designed! It was all about suits for the 50th anniversary of the Ralph Lauren brand, but each suit had a little uniqueness thrown in to add the Lauren touch! Photos by Vogue One of the most consistent parts of this collection is the fact that the designs, for men in particular, are not too loose fitting. Instead, they are tailored to precisely fit each model. This gives the fashion forward suits a more professional look while also being exceptionally designed with crushed velvet…

Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 2019 for Women
The old soul in me simply loved the Ralph Lauren 5oth anniversary runway show this New York Fashion Week! There were so many different elements jam-packed into one show, yet his collection remained so cohesive! What was most prevalent trend you noticed in this show you ask? The accessories! Photos by Vogue We saw a touch of New York and a touch of London mixed into a super modern and super classic collection with men’s and women’s fashion for Ralph Lauren. The rustic and modern vibes ran through the structure of each piece and the overall color scheme. The muted browns, blacks, and burgundy are all colors you would normally…

Tory Burch Spring/Summer 2019
Tory Burch gave us something to think about with this collection. The question raised with these designs are, “How do you make something almost completely different, yet with your invisible fingerprint on it all at the same time?” Well, whatever the answer is to this question Tory Burch figured it out seamlessly! Photos by Vogue We are used to seeing Tory Burch pieces that are very colorful and with lots of prints. But while all of the other designers are currently experimenting with mixing prints, Tory Burch its experimenting with basics! She took what she was known for, and toned it down. All the while, these designs are still unmistakably…

Kate Spade Spring/Summer 2019
Despite all of the fun and fashion, New York Fashion Week was also a emotional milestone. This was the first fashion show after the loss of company founder Kate Spade. There were many impactful tributes dedicated to her, from the all pink runway to the programs with the iconic quote “She left a little sparkle wherever she went”. This collection will be a memorable one for the brand for many reasons, only one being how amazing all of these pieces are. Photos by Vogue This whole runway show seemed to be 60’s inspired and I loved every bit of it! From the fun prints to the all pink outfits, this…
