The big apple bi annual fashion event is IN
his 5th power gear already, but I hope with a less winter-cold-snow vortex and
more design-inspiring moments. There are three things that were in common till
now for major designers that already presented their collection: layering,
playing with textures and cocoon-ish shape for outwears. A tunic under the sleeveless
top under the vest under the coat. Something like that. An onion-dressing
effect we could say. Nothing new, but winter by winter this is more important
and present in fashion due the global climate changes. You never know what to
expect from the winter weather day by day: from abnormal warm day to a very
cold-freezing one, to the snow, rain, wind...a result? You wear almost 3 and
more top wear garments to "survive". It´s comfortable, but sometimes
I feel like I am like a walking closet :) But maybe I just feel that way ;)
Below you can see my favorite picks from
the first part of the NY fashion week…if there will be a collection that I will
like almost 75% I will made a full post of that. My new rule for less massy and
stress fashion week’s days.
