Angela Mitchell- F/W 2018

Emerging designer sisters Krystal and Marilyn Lavoie presented their Angela Mitchell FW18 collection with a presentation during New York Fashion Week. I was lucky enough to snag an invite and see their amazing collection up close.

Krystal and Marilyn were inspired by their journey through Morocco's Tizi n'Tichka road, which is considered one of the most beautiful and dangerous in Morocco.

This collection is bold in color, uses high end leather, and select pieces are even encrusted in semi-precious jewels.

Yuna Yang- F/W 2018

Yuna Yang's Fall/Winter 2018 season is titles "Love Yourself". Yuna wanted to send a message out about the importance of loving yourself. Love was seen inscribed on several pieces in this collection that was filled with bright colors, beautiful floral patterns, and lace.

I'm sure many of you saw my videos of the show in my Instastory yesterday. It was a rather intimate engagement, as it was held in a beautiful townhouse on E. 9th Street.

Thanks again to the team with Yuna Yang who let me be a part of this!

Son Jung Wan- F/W 2018

One of my favorite designers to follow during NYFW has to be Son Jung Wan. I went to one of her shows a few seasons back and I was so delighted to get an invite to her show this season.

Her show this season (F/W 2018) was all about bright and bold colors and mixing fabrics (from silk, to denim, to velvet, to fur). I personally loved the amazing outerwear and all of the embellished pants. I know I'm normally a dress girl...but maybe next season I'll be rocking some serious bell bottoms.

Here are some of my favorite looks from the show...

NYFW- Francesca Liberatore

This morning I attended the Francesca Liberatore Spring/Summer 2018 runway show and it was full of flowing fabrics, bold prints, beautiful colors, and lace.

Femininity took over this show. The addition of lace, silk, and ruffles brought a ladylike feel to some of her menswear inspired pieces.

Francesca Liberatore's collection was inspired by time travel, the Middle East, watch mechanisms, rural America, plane engines, Antoinette's France, and beauty resplendent in all of her forms.

NYFW- Greta Constantine

New York Fashion Week has officially started! Tonight I was lucky enough to attend Greta Constantine's Spring/Summer 2018 presentation. It was absolutely fabulous. So rarely do I attend a show and actually love every piece in the collection. Now if i can just make some more room in my closet...

This collection by the Toronto based duo of Greta Constantine (Stephen Wong and Kirk Pickergill) is full of vibrant colors, sparkling sequins, full tulle, and flowing fabrics. The juxtaposition between menswear pieces and the tulle skirts shows the true range of the designers and their line.

Pickersgill and Wong work together in their Toronto based studio- conceptualizing, exploring, and challenging the fashions of today for the women of tomorrow.

This was Greta Constatine's first NYFW, having traditionally shown in Paris. They invaded New York with their Canadian-Girl-Gang (yes, the models are also from Canada). I have to say, they have definitely started off my NYFW with a bang!

My two favorite looks of the night have to be the gold sequin Bogdan jumpsuit with angel style sleeves and the gold sequin Ordell dress with the black silk wool teacup style skirt and black tulle Crinoline. Which looks are your favorite???
