Collection: Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear Jeremy Scott

Designer: Jeremy Scott

Models Who Walked the Show: Riley Montana, Kai Newman, Leomie Anderson and Cindy Bruna

On The Runway: Ok is it just us or is this Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear Jeremy Scott collection giving you vibes of the movie “Mars Attack”. Jeremy Scott delivers once again with his outlandish attires down the runway that leaves you in somewhat of bewilderment. Yet I did love the sort of 70s vibe we were getting through this collection and the of plenty midriff tops. So at least we know Katy Perry and Miley Cyrus will have plenty of things to choose from for there next shows. Other than that who would wear this. Would you wear any of the pieces? Let us know.

Collection: Tommy Hilfiger S/S 2016

Designer: Tommy Hilfiger

Models Who Walked the Show: Tami Williams, Lineisy Montero, Alecia Morais, Leomie Anderson, Jasmine Tookes, Aaya Jones, Imaan Hammam, Kai Newman, Karly Loyce andAmilna estevão

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!!
