The BEST RUNWAY LOOKS From New York Fashion Week Spring 2017
Think of all the best bits in fashion for the past years, now toss ’em all in some magical machine, and ta-daaa: take a step back, sip that latte (or wine, why the hell not) and watch the most beautiful looks ever roll out in front of you. It’s gonna be a great spring/summer 2017.
After watching some collections straight off the runway at NYFW Spring 2017 I gotta say a few thinks aka trends stand out for next year: a lot of white, trench-coats (or bath robes), bras as tops, athleisure or sports-mania still strong, a lot of blue, some 50s silhouettes, 80s accents, slouchiness, romanticism, garbage-grunge.
You might have thought I fell off the face of the earth, but nah-ha, I was just absorbed into the sartorial world of next year, and I can tell you this much. I am obsessed with some looks from designers I never thought I’d love so much: hello DKNY, and Lacoste.
I guess all my gym life is rubbing off on my fashion life.
Things I loved about NYFW Spring 2017: that sports in fashion trend is not dead, in fact it’s quite strong and Alexander Wang’s & Adidas collab stand testimony to that. Amen! And his collection was absolutely amazing. I loved Lacoste for all the same reasons and all the long trenches inspired by long retro masculine bath-robes. Shut the front door.
I loved the mix of masculine with romantic vibes from Zimmerman, all those white shades of white and lace and see-through. So all-white looks will be a massive trend. Can I also speculate on summer nude thigh-high boots?!
If you think crop tops are passé think again. We’ll be baring just a little more than our midriffs: bras are the new tops. Probably by 2020 we’ll all go topless or something.
Slouchy is the new sexy. So maay power suits with a bit of grunge meets 80s Detective Colombo vibe. With a dash of sporty.
Ultra feminine and hot as fuck was Altuzarra’s collection. If I could choose one set of clothes to die in or live in for eternity that’d be it. Maybe a bit of DKNY here and there, and I’m done.
Of course I will have to keep some room for Marc Jacobs, and Michael Kors par example. But we’ll see.
Things I liked less about this NYFW Spring 2017: that I missed the Kanye wave, so I can’t really articulate much on that. And THAT I hate. But, from what I’ve seen the clothes, as bland as some might say they were – I LOVED. I’m just really into all this laid back sports sexy hobo chic with a dash of urban fashion right now. You know, fashion that’s suppose to look like £100 when in fact you’re splurging at least one or two zeros on top of that.
I wasn’t too impressed with designers’ collections I used to adore in the past, like DVF, or Victoria Beckham. Zac Posen didn’t do much for me either. But what the fuck do I know. My sartorial barometer work by how much my heart stops or skips a beat at the sight of a collection. Yeah. Didn’t really happen to the ones above.
Of course I don’t have the best and most functional emotional system aka heart out there, but I always kinda followed it. My brain tags along sometimes but more often than not it’s quite a few steps behind.
Whatever.
So here are my fave looks from NYFW Spring 2017. So far.
