Out with the minimal, and in with the maximal- so goes the ever-revolving door of fashion trends. For Fall 2017, we are revisiting the powerful, exaggerated silhouettes and over-the-top embellishments of the 1980’s. From New York all the way to Paris, runways were lit up by each designers’ newfound flair for extravagance. It is finally time to open your minds and your closets to daring, yet infinitely chic possibilities. Shop on…
Power Shoulders: One of the most memorable fashion moments of the 1980’s (aside from the larger-than-life hair) were the larger-than-life shoulder pads. Think cropped couture jackets and little party frocks all with a dramatic shoulder line that creates the illusion of a smaller waist.
Fun Furs: When the temperature starts to drop, nothing says decadence quite like swathing yourself in fur. This season, don’t let your exceptionally soft selection of outerwear be merely utilitarian; instead, choose one that is just as unique and cheerful as it is cozy.
Rare Birds: Feathers are no doubt the biggest story in embellishment this season. Bright, bold, beautiful plumes could be spotted flouncing down the catwalk of practically every major designer.
Give Them the Slip: Who says silken slip dresses must be confined to the bedroom? If you are afraid of being mistaken for a sleepwalker, layer an asymmetrical, lace-trimmed slip over a t-shirt or sweater for a decidedly modern look.
Flower Power: As Miranda Priestly famously taught us in The Devil Wears Prada, florals are by no means groundbreaking for spring. They are, however, an unexpected delight for fall and winter. This season, designer’s showcased moody, yet bold versions of the print that would feel right at home in an 18th century painting.
New York Men's Day (NYMD) the premiere NYC-based platform exclusively dedicated to emerging men's and genderless talent, is now accepting applications for the upcoming kick-off to fall 2025 NYFW, slated for February 2025.
The ‘Castellammare’ collection marks Michael Fausto’s debut as part of the official CFDA Fashion Week Calendar.
Christian Juul Nielsen debuted his Spring/Summer 2025 New York Fashion Week (NYFW) collection for AKNVAS entitled Nordic Midsummer Camp.
The collection transports us to the whimsical yet adventurous essence of a Nordic summer, blending nostalgia with modern sensibility.
Aaron Potts showed the A.Potts SS25 collection as part of New York Men’s Day. Entitled Urbanoceana, the collection is inspired by visions of the deep sea, the beauty of aquatic life, the warrior Princess Diana on Themyscira, beachy 70s supermodels, African gods and goddesses descended on the sandy beaches of Zanzibar, traditional Japanese workwear and the work of South African photographers Jessica Madavo and Tanatswa Amisi.
Haider Ackermann's appointment as the new Creative Director of Tom Ford marks a significant moment for the brand, given his reputation for avant-garde aesthetics combined with wearable and refined tailoring.
Kith's collaboration with Giorgio Armani marks a significant milestone in the fashion industry, as it's the first time the iconic Italian designer has partnered with another brand on a collection.
Continuing its iconic revival, Donna Karan New York unveils its Fall 2024 Campaign, "Reflections on Women," with a powerful message that celebrates the multi-faceted nature of modern women.

DIOR. 25th annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares August, 28, 2017
There will be fireworks at Jeffrey Fashion Cares this season through an explosive runway of designer sequins, sparkle and shine! Givenchy, Balenciaga, Dior, Louboutin, YSL, Dries van Noten and Michael Halpern were just some of the labels I was fortunate to get a peek at this week. It's a thrill (for me) to sit in on the fittings and as the only invited media to do so, it's also an honor. For the most part, I sit quietly and simply observe, having conversation with Jeffrey Kalinsky only between fittings.
It's absolutely mesmerizing watching Jeffrey at work: "Is there another bag? Let's try the sheer stockings. Did we like the hat? We should go with the drama..." He has such a defined vision of glamour and elegance that is as timeless as it is modern.
Accompanying the runway bling, expect to see velvets, plaids, structured blazers and suits. Lots of color and lots of volume too. And let's not forget the gowns! There will be 60 looks gracing the Jeffrey Fashion Cares runway and I can attest that you'll lose count of how many showstoppers are in the show. Good luck choosing faves. Grab your sneak peek with the slideshow above - photos by Tomas Espinoza.
The 25th annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares is Monday, August 28th at Phipps Plaza. *Purchase your tickets below.
