New York Fashion Week is back with a chic bang! With fashion shows in Manhattan and Brooklyn, the front rows of the Big Apple’s fashion extravaganza have boasted ultra-modern looks from local and international celebrities. Moreover, the exhibition has propelled stunning fashion moments at private parties hosted by luxury houses including Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent.
Style-savvy A-listers such as Sofia Richie, Ziwe Fumudoh, and Sam Smith all showed up and showed out as they took in some of the hottest offerings from esteemed fashion houses.
Meanwhile, Tommy Hilfiger’s return to the schedule on February 9 brought several famous faces to the opulent Grand Central Oyster Bar to see the designer’s new take on classic American prep. Mzansi’s very own trendsetters Lerato Kgamanyane and Emmanuel Tjiya have also shared looks from their New York Fashion Week attendance.
Aside from the front-row action, the runways have also garnered their own attention with showcases from renowned luxury brands. Refreshingly, the Big Apple is increasingly becoming a major hub for up-and-coming brands, seeking the ideal balance between artistic innovation and commercial potential.
