CURATED LUXURY LIFESTYLE FASHION ART and WELLNESS magazine NYC curating good vibes by BRIGITTE SEGURA

there’s always room for a little DRAMA from the runway

NEW drama is a VARIETY pack.. now that designers got the message we’re NOT ALL ABOUT gowns, there was new LIFE on the ol’ DRAMA of long gowns as [not always] necessary… Designers have added sportswear, jackets and pant that glittered here and there, and WHITE was the new FRESH… as if LINCOLN center was the BACK to the new [high] school, a FRESHened identity, an new START featuring 1 DENNIS BASSO 2. J.

a newfound double-take4 19 20 21 24  at bibhuMOHAPATRA.. a visual connection of diversity in the detailing of this collection, a beautiful presentation of styling accessorized by shoes from Brian Atwood and hats from Victor Osborne.. a MATURed ease in the MARRIAGE of fabrics +  design is yet to come… he got our attention, we see GREATer things coming SOON,  but the distraction of the fabric challenges were obvious in lumps… steam ON the seams, please!!

BLANKSILK by Meghan Walsh… a good start for this new designer, a beautiful view in a downtown PENTHOUSE with a spectacular view.. CHIC girls satined lounging cool, accompanied by some not-so-shabby extras [guys as props]… Loved the simplicity in the start, Megan’s got a good eye, an understanding of fabric and drape, no extra “stuff” needed; and we liked that!.   A great start we’ll be keeping an eye out as it develops.

Michael angel, who has designed some bags with Maybelline for Fashion’s night out this year,  had some interesting details +  printed looks on the runway… we liked the more feminine detailed silhouettes and backs, though it was a bit too too… much with the sparkles and all.   we can see the prints layered with some solids in real time…
