I’ve selected my favorite pieces

While a majority of NYFW focuses on women, I’m always inspired by the pieces that are put on display. I’ve selected my favorite pieces from each show below. The day kicked off with the ā€œAll Comes From Nothingā€ show from designer Eva Yiwel Xu, which was inspired by the Chinese philosophy of simplicity and minimalism. The show was filled with minimalist designs and a sleek color palette.

raw materials like cotton

The ā€œW. Reflexā€ show from designer Kris Wu followed and showcased a collection of men’s and womenswear. The show was the brand’s worldwide debut with modern silhouettes using raw materials like cotton, linen and leather to tell a story inspired by NYC loft culture.

the act of falling in love

The “Luyang by Yanglu” show from designer Yang Lu followed showcasing a collection inspired by the act of falling in love, with the color red playing a prominent role in many of the designs. The collection featured intricate folds, embroidery, printing, and hanging ribbons, all to emphasize love in its many forms.
