On The Runway: I’m not sure if Tommy Hilfiger is still trying to get on our good side with the black community, but I will say that this collection is a good step in the right direction. I have never seen him use so many models of color that it’s quite shocking. The collection was great and a bit different from what we usually see from Mr. Hilfiger. The vibe was quite Jamaican, safari islander girl. The crochet pieces with the use of ethnic prints and colors were spectacular yet still had the refinement of a true Hilfiger collection. Bravo!!
Kimora Lee Simmons S/S 2016 – NYFW
Designer: Kimora Lee Simmons
Models Who Walked the Show: Amilna Estevão
On The Runway: This collection is all about business. A career driven woman who is the head of her company or making waves in the corporate world should flock to this. Its simple and chic with just enough detail that makes you feel like an individual yet still confident in showing your famine side in the office.
An explosion of color at Trina Turk S/S 2016 at NYFW was beautiful. I love bright colors on it really brightens up your mood and seeing this collection does just the thing. The collection features many prints and designs that add even more character to her signature pieces.
Models Sienna King and Leomie Anderson looked super fresh and airy for the runway show of Perret Schaad S/S 2016 for Berlin Fashion Week. The light fabrics, the sheer paneling and cool color palette is exactly in season for these hot summer months.
