NEW YORK FASHION WEEK FALL / WINTER 2016 |DESIGNERS WE

LOVE The biggest fashion event that kicked off last

Wednesday has come to an end. New York Fashion Week is the most prestigious fashion events among other

events such as Paris, Milan and London. The four highly anticipated fashion events combined are known as the

‘BIG 4’. The most awaited fashion event of the world brought

some of the biggest and most talented designers together this year so that each of them could showcase their winter/fall collection. Famous supermodels, buyers, celebrities, press and fashion enthusiasts came together

to enjoy the more-than week-long event. Here’s a glimpse of the best New York Fashion Week designers

and their collection with fashion week pictures.

VERA WANGAmong many famous New York

Fashion Week designers was New York based fashion designer Vera Wang who showcased a dreamy

collection on the runway. Her designs were majorly focused on business wear along with tough

jackets, coats and long skirts. The fashion week pictures show models walking the runway wearing block high heels with socks which were

also a part of her Vera Wang’s designs.

PHILLIP LIMThe 42-year-old American fashion

designer showcased some interesting pieces on the runway. I love patterns on dresses and tops

and most of Lim’s designs were big on patterns and textures which

tempted me to include his designs in this post

TOMMY HILFIGEROne of the many popular New York Fashion Week designers present was Tommy Hilfiger’s fall/winter collection which was an absolute surprise. His designs were simple with a vintage touch added to all the pieces. His collection included wide legged pants, satin dresses,

nautical overalls and more. A lot of famous supermodels wore tiara on their heads. Foot fashion included

angle socks paired with chunky heeled shoes.

ZAC POSENAside from his great collection full

of style, Zac Posen brought diversity on the runway by

including almost exclusively models of color. This had been an

issue in the past as designers were criticized for lack of diversity in its

choice of models on the runway. Zac took a rather bold step by doing this and the results were amazing. His designs were top

notch which included maxi dresses, business outfits, stylish coats and

footwear.

ROSIE ASSOULINRosie Assoulin showcased her

unique fantasy style among other New York Fashion week designer

where famous supermodels modeled her amazing collection. She never fails to deliver pieces the stand out including this year.

Her collection was mostly glamorous and flashy. (left picture) This sequined trench coat and track pants are the best example of her blingy collection. (Right Picture) Another piece showed a model

wearing knit single sleeved sweater paired with a ruffle maxi

skirt.

KAREN WALKERNew Zealand based designer Karen

Walker displayed her bold yet simple designs amidst other New York fashion week designers. Her

collection had poppy color and noteworthy patterns. These two

outfits alone show her unique style. The red plaid pencil skirt is so chic

and perfect for casual or formal events. And I love the red coat with fluffy sleeves. No doubt these two versatile pieces can be paired and

number of outfits.

MAIYETMost people know Maiyet as a big

fashion brand but don’t really know the masterminds behind it.

The brand’s founders Kristy Caylor and Paul van Zyl created this

fashion brand with eye-catching pieces. This year at the New York

Fashion Week fall/winter 2016, Maiyet displayed very

sophisticated set of designs. They had everything from leggings to

fall overcoats. I’m looking forward to getting some of these pieces for

my wardrobe soon.

These were my favorite designers from this year’s New York fashion week. Who were yours? Were there any looks

that you particularly loved from this year’s fall/winter

collection? Designers, Fashion & Style by Thelma Okoro
