New York Fashion Week S/S13 finally kicks off!

10th September 2012 9:40 am

You instantly know what Fashion Month is going to be like after the first few shows of New York Fashion Week, and judging by what we’ve already seen in the Big Apple, we’re going to be in for a real treat this September!

We’ve been monitoring NYFW very closely from the moment the first model stepped onto the catwalk, and already have our favourites from the likes of Jason Wu, Altuzarra, DKNY and Victoria Beckham among others.

Jason Wu’s outing also went down a storm, as the designer incorporated elegant materials with tougher edgier ones, achieving full-on contrasting looks. One of our faves for sure… kind of like 50 Shades of Grey meets Downton Abbey? 

And we assume we weren’t the only ones really looking forward to Victoria Beckham’s new line since – judging by last season – every big name celeb will probably be stepping out in one of her creations at least once this year!

We were really keen on seeing award-winning Altuzarra showcase his spring/summer 2013 collection too, and we can definitely see why he was victorious.

You may remember that we’re mildly obsessed with Awards Season, so are always on the look-out for ultra-glam dresses for the occasion. This season, we got our first taste of red carpet glamour from Monique Lhuillier (standard!) as she gave her evening dresses an aquatic theme. Simply gorgeous!

DKNY gave us another instantly wearable collection with a range of standalone pieces and sexy separates for when you want to mix it up, while Diane von Furstenberg presented gorgeous, flattering, empowering pieces If we had the funds, we would shop our entire holiday wardrobe from DVF!

Stay tuned for more coverage tomorrow! What has been your favourite look/collection so far?
