Hello Moto! Rihanna once again brought Fashion Week to it’s knees! We’re talking about flying motorcycles, a rolling pink obstacle catwalk and of course the flyest models in the game. The Fenty x Puma SS18 fashion show was an edgy fashionista’s dream.

The songstress turned fashion designer showcased a runway show inspired by the Moto X, extreme sports community. The fashions are certainly of the athleisure fold. A popular trend designed for making athletic wear more stylish to be worn in situations outside of workouts or athletic activities.

The show was very much RiRi-eqse, making it a cinch to see bits and pieces of her personal flair throughout. Puma obviously agreed. While showing highlights of the Fenty x Puma SS18 show the Puma brand says, “Introducing the new daredevil Fenty x Puma collection by Badgalriri (Rihanna). Making waves the only way Rihanna can. NYFW.”

Several pieces and garments caught our eye (i.e. tracksuits, hoodies, bodysuits and amazing outerwear). However, one element that could not be ignored is Rihanna’s fabulously designed shoes! Bold colors, interesting heel options, comfy slippers and thigh high sporty boots that are definitely made for walking slid their way down the catwalk. Furthermore, our personal favorite design is a flip flop converted into an ankle strap heel. It’s a laid back look with a certain je ne sais quoi that can not be ignored.

After the high energy show the lady of the hour briefly talked about her Fenty x Puma SS18 runway show. Miss Robyn Fenty says,

“When the X-Games come to fashion week. Thank you guys for making this show the best one yet! I feel like the coolest on the block now! Lol!

Shoutout to all my beautiful and talented models who absolutely murdered this show last night.”

So then, who were some of the models who stomped the catwalk yard? We loved seeing Joan Smalls, Slick Woods, Duckie Thot as well as Victoria’s Secret supermodel Adriana Lima. Now no fashion show is complete without celebrity fanfare. Therefore, who made their way out to NYFW in order to support Rihanna’s big night? We spied Pharrell Williams, Big Sean, Cardi B, Jhene Aiko, Ty Dolla Sign, A$ap Ferg, Offset and Dave East to name a few.

NYFW SS18 Highlights: Teyana Taylor Closes GCDS Fashion Show

Clothing brand, GCDS, heated things up during NYFW with a fashion show certainly for the style books. The collection featured several pieces oozing of mid 90s glamour. Think crop tops, layers, chain belts, logo pants and shirts as well as mini skirts.

Moreover, Teyana’s closing number garments screamed Queen Bee. Naw not Beyonce, we mean the original and notorious Ms. Lil’ Kim! Teyana Taylor hit the catwalk in an all white couture ensemble featuring a cropped top, stunner shades, booty shorts and gold chains as well as accessories.

Nevertheless, for a quick moment can we talk about Teyana’s walk?! Believe us when we say this lovely girl is straight MEAN on a runway. Her walk is powerful and fierce like Naomi. It’s strong and signature like Tyra. It’s bold and sassy like Adriana. If Teyana ever wanted to change her career to catwalk model she should have no issue finding work.

So then, go on Teyana with your bad self. Also, congrats on closing a NYFW show as well! An honor that is very much deserved. Oh and almost forgot, keep scrolling to see more looks from the show. Enjoy fashion lovers.

Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show

Arianne Suggs February 10, 2017February 10, 2017Leave a Comment

The Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show beautifully fused together 90’s hip hop trends with modern style. Nevertheless, the inspiration behind the amazing collection has an even deeper meaning. Fashion’s rising duo is using their couture brand to start a revolution. One that they desire will give hope as well as power to the people.

Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show

Nicholas and Christopher Kunz are the genius masterminds behind the Nicholas K label. The brother and sister couture designers have been deeply affected by the politics of America. From the recent ban and administration changes Nicholas and Christopher began to feel as though things in America were going backwards.

Enter their Nicolas K Fall/Winter 2017 collection. First of all, it was important to the designers to show inclusion and diversity. For their NYFW show they made sure to cast models of all shades and tones. Next, they let their clothes do the rest of the talking.

The garments are a throw back to the golden era of hip hop, the 90s. Oversized coats, slouchy pants and a bold color palette (black, gold, red) brought the decade before the 2000’s back to the catwalk.

Also, the strong accessories gave the collection a very activist and rebel vibe. Models hit the catwalk in berets, humongous septum rings as well as earrings. The resulting look immediately made us think black panther and underground grunge.

As you can see Nicolas K definitely left their mark on NYFW and we can’t wait to future designs from the growing brand. Nevertheless, there’s more to see so keep your fashionable eyes on 1966 as we bring you the hottest moments of fashion week!

Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear Thom Browne

Alicia Suggs September 15, 2015September 15, 2015Leave a Comment

Collection: Spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear Thom Browne

Designer: Thom Browne

Models Who Walked the Show: Adau Mornyang, Lula Kenfe, Milan Dixon and Shamone Edwards.

On The Runway: Soooo. This collection was over the top, kooky and eccentric but in a strange way you just have to love it. To be able to put all these extremes together from the makeup to the two braids sticking straight in the air and yet still have the clothes do the talking is a true art-form. I could really see many people flocking to grab these pieces off the runway, you may dial it down a bit but the core designs are really solid in craftsmanship.
