NYFW September 2021 – Day Two

Since so many fashion shows were digital on Wednesday, with so many WINONA, INC. models walking (or floating) online, I hosted a watch party at the agency. We drank champagne and cheered for each other in BADGLEY MISCHKA, NICOLE MILLER, and TADASHI SHOJI, who’s presentation, while a little frumpy at times, really showcased his exquisite detailing. That’s something you really can’t appreciate in a live show.
PROENZA SCHOULER presented on Manhattan’s new Little Island just before nightfall. What a coup for them! There was lots of great color, lots of fringe, and the trench coats were totally popping! Especially those wild zebra prints. Love!
PRABAL GURUNG sat New York’s brand new governor on the first row and served up bright colors, feathers, and florals, as always, on men as well as women. Many of his offerings were very pretty but boys in ruffly, corset-like tops? Fight me. It’s just not my thing.
Last stop was Spring Studios and Bella Hadid’s party to officially launch herself as a partner in Kin Euphorics. We’d just seen sister Gigi in the Proenza Schouler show earlier. Yikes! I liked her slinky party en-som so much better. What’s that saying for the lucky designers getting all of the attention this week, huh? And those who aren’t? It’s something to think about…DAY THREE
