Among the fashion houses that are returning this year to the NYFW are Tom Ford and Fenty x Puma by Rihanna. Both shows are expected to have a high-profile audience full of celebrities and influencers.

There are also some designers who will show at NYFW for the first time. The cool streetwear label Daisy approved by Kim Kardashian West is on the schedule for this year. Next, Matthew Adams Dolan, Rihanna’s go-to denim designer will also make his debut on the NYFW. Other new names include Snow Xue Gao, Lou Dallas and Barragan and LRS. The plus-size clothing brand Addition Elle will also be part of the NYFW for the first time ever. Models such as Ashley Graham and Jordyn Woods will walk the runway for the brand. This is expected to be the most body-positive NYFW so far.

Some of the brands already confirmed their locations in Brooklyn. Additionally, some designers choose out of town locations., for example, will show his collection 46.1 miles from One World Trade Center.

The designer will present Spring 2018 designs in his garage in Bedford. More designers are leaving the runway concept and opt for a more intimate atmosphere.

This way, the audience has a closer look at the designs. Designers, on the other hand, get an opportunity to connect with the audience on a more personal level.

This year Narciso Rodriguez and Rag and Bone will show the collections in their ateliers. The NYFW has many new faces this year. The most popular one is Kaia Gerber, the 16-year-old daughter of the former supermodel. Kaia is the new face of the Daisy perfume by Marc Jacobs. Therefore, we should expect the model to make her debut at the NYFW on the Marc Jacobs’ show.

The fall/winter 2017-2018 runway presentation was the goodbye to that many were surprised was coming, and a lot of people are sad at the concept. To clarify things, and adopting the Vetements’ sale enhancing show model.

While this is a move up for the brand, it is a terrible loss for New York Fashion Week that will definitely be different in the absence of the fashion house. There was hope for those who felt that the designers – Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez, were hinting at the change as a trial run rather than a permanent change.

For most, however, it is just a huge change that they are going to have to suffer through, with a hole left by the departure of a great runway presentation by a brand that has cemented its name with more than a decade’s worth of compliments and excitement around the brand. People genuinely looked forward to the show in New York each year and they will no longer have that. Apparently the difference in the rules and expectations between New York and will benefit them in the best of ways so we can only wish them best.

The use of the Internet to live-stream shows and purchase the fashions has really changed how fashion works, so outside of the loss during NYFW itself, what really changes besides the show dates? At any rate the Proenza Schouler fall 2017 collection was packed with elegant ideas and interesting cuts and eye-catching details that were completely unexpected. Smooth, form-flattering dresses featured an asymmetrical detailing and treatment over the bodices to affect how eyes travel down the form.

The varying lengths and designs included in the collection were of course exciting, but they did not stand out so much that they erased the other ensembles as well. Flatteringly cut and graciously assembled suits were an interesting development in the collection. While several of the collections have been showing suits for fall and winter, Proenza Schouler’s fall 2017 ready-to-wear line, the last to be shown at New York Fashion Week at least for now, has provided a charismatic yet elegant set of options that are ready for work and the daily transition.

The suits and work-appropriate dress items were touched with detailing that similar to the dresses draws the eye on a bit of an unexpected journey over the ensemble. The Proenza Schouler logo being the most prominent and surprisingly placed detail was much more welcomed than not. The accessories are definitely going to make the biggest of splashes throughout the collection with the surprising designs that were shown. The most interesting feature, perhaps because it was so unexpected is the use of the logo as exaggerated zipper pulls; it seems a fun and slightly odd detail that really does add to the overall coolness of the collection.

Available on, the Proenza Schouler x Barneys collaboration is set to produce an XO capsule collection that provides a wide variety of options to boost the wardrobes of those fashionably minded.

There will be staples, such as the standard yet necessary LBD with the Proenza Schouler peplum waist poplin dress. There are also interesting maxi dresses like the Proenza Schouler bias cut plaid tweet long dress and the striped gauze V- neck one in cheery yellow. The Proenza Schouler x Barneys holiday 2016 collection has high waisted pants, interesting handbags and layerable pieces in an array of cuts, colors and silhouettes.

Interesting pieces such as the Proenza Schoulder striped canvas safari jacket and cotton long sleeve t-shirt, feature a generous amount of prints that are easy to see and interesting to pair up. The handbags shown so far are all fun pieces, like the Proenza Schouler small lunch bag in different colors and patterns, intense enough to give it the appearance of a different texture altogether. Some of the pieces look like they are just wearable comfort like the Proenza Schouler off-the-shoulder halter-neck top. Proenza Schouler was created in 2002 by native New Yorkers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez with incredible use of patterns and textures on custom created materials. The use of their custom materials meant that their clothing moved differently, fit different and performed differently than other fabrics. Even the shoes, like the grommet-embellished oxfords pictured with the Proenza Schouler abstract print silk dress that featured an interesting set of ruffles for a remarkable silhouette. The same ruffle, print and fabric are seen on the shorter silk ruffle dress.

The tree stem print silk twill trousers provide even more prints for the eye, this time layered with a cashmere cardigan in a soft yellow over the matching tree stem print silk blouse. Barneys is going to have a collection previously unseen, immensely helpful and beautifully designed to show off from the capsule collection this collaboration will create. My personal favorite is the design and silhouette as well as the crispness of the Proenza Schouler black and white in the halter-tie neck top and open stitched long sleeve top. It’s flowing and cleanly designed while also being interesting to look at. That is the essence of the collection – interesting aesthetics and clean designs over custom materials and stunning patterns and designs.

The Proenza Schouler x Barney holiday 2016 capsule collection is going to pull in every fan from both worlds to support this collaboration and it will lead to a consumer base of interestingly attired individuals who made each piece their own, as intended.

Not entirely new, not entirely familiar, the newest spring/summer 2017 collection, presented at New York Fashion Week today afternoon, will surely not disappoint those who love the Maison’s signature designs, while at the same time exciting those who are looking for timeless classics infused with a more modern zest. Proenza Schouler’s creative directors, Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez put a lot of emphasis on the craftsmanship as well as the textures and architecture of the pieces this year, offering us sensual staples that could easily transition not only from day to night, but also from winter to spring and from summer to autumn. The Proenza Schouler spring/summer 2017 collection looks, in fact, trapped between two seasons, with fresh trench coats, kimono jackets and cozy sweatshirts dominating the scene along with fresh skirts and sandals.

Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez are offering us new takes on summer fashion, subverting the conventional norms by not only delivering heavier silhouettes, but darker shades too. The line-up’s color palette features everything from black to white, from blue to red, with checkered patterns dynamically alternating each other, giving us strong urban-chic vibes. The collection pays homage to the confident, cosmopolitan woman, mixing both urban-chic lines and cuts with romantic figures that will update the overall spring /summer 2017 season with loads of pleats and strategic cut-outs that sort of lighten up the more sharp, clean-cut lines.

A strict geometry is enhanced by the collection’s astounding variety of fabrics, as Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez went heavy on leather, furry embellishments and sleek, heavyweight fabrics. The latter were mainly utilized to translate conventionally menswear-inspired staples to more feminine ones, with boyfriend shirts and t-shirts likely to be the major sellouts at the stores as soon as the collection becomes available. While creating staples for their Proenza Schouler woman, the designer duo also transported the collection to the Eighties and Nineties, making ample use of chokers and asymmetric cuts accordingly. As for the chokers, along with oversized earrings and platform pumps, their refined and thoughtful lines and motifs denote the designers’ willingness to focus more on the jewelry line, as they have been ramping up Proenza Schouler’s accessory business for a while now.

Another stand-out feature from the collection is to be found (literally) on the models’ bodies. To highlight the jewelry pieces, Proenza Schouler’s creative directors asked makeup artist Diane Kendal to paint the models’ ears with MAC’s Chromacake pigment, in either yellow or white. It is not the first time that bright pops of colors get applied on the models’ ears, but it is definitely surprising and kind of shocking to see such a bold ear makeup style at a Proenza Schouler runway show. Are Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez slowly preparing us for Proenza Schouler’s most extravagant collection, one step at a time? We guess only time will tell at this point.

Still vivid in our mind is the, namely the long-sleeve geometric-print gown inspired by Stella’s artwork, which managed to literally blow our minds away. If you crave for more Stella-inspired pieces, rejoice!

’s creative directors Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez just released a well-served lineup for the fall/winter 2016-2017 season, which indeed directly draws inspiration from our the most beloved minimalistic artist of all time. Proenza Schouler’s point of view on minimalism is, however, closer to deconstructivism, as the long and sinuous lines of the pieces got skillfully paired with layers of fabrics and lacing adornments.

While the Alice + Olivia collection played more with cubistic influences, McCollough and Hernandez enjoyed developing the other side of deconstructivism, a.k.a. Being a natural development of postmodern architecture in the Fifties, deconstructivism in fashion often showcases tight waistlines and geometrical cuts that somehow manage to balance the figures, minimizing the bare skins’ proportions and playing with tactical cut-outs and lateral slits. When not featuring tight waistlines, deconstructive fashion drops the waists displaying a sort of Twenties-inspired cubistic array of proposals, which could be particularly seen in Proenza Schouler’s newest FW 2016-17 rtw collection. McCollough and Hernandez alternate hourglass silhouettes with dramatic drop-waist figures, which deconstruct the silhouettes from head to toe. That is translated to the deep plunging V-necklines most of the jumpsuits feature, although coming, of course, layered with long-sleeved shirts underneath them. Miniskirts and short shorts are not an option either, as the barest the collection gets when it channels geometrical cut-outs and wide (yet not-so-plunging) necklines. The collection’s color palette is not that diverse either, although it includes appealing bursts of colors, such as yellow and red (which at this point are ).

It focuses more on blacks, whites, beiges and, generally speaking, on different kinds of materials. Sleek fabrics interrupt the many silky proposals, without undermining the collection’s overall ethereal appeal. Refined gowns and floaty roomy pants might also play a huge role in this kind of angelic side of Proenza Schouler, which definitely helped the lineup get closer to Haute Couture rather than ready-to-wear. To top it all off, McCollough and Hernandez charmed us with some well-tailored bisected jackets that will probably quickly become the collection’s winning pieces, and might be a good investment for those, who are looking for a staple to show off next October.
