Want to arrive at the shows today well-informed on what’s to come? Of course! To make it easy, we’ve asked designers to fill us in on the inspiration behind their collections, which will be hitting the runway today. Check back each day of New York Fashion Week for a fresh update…
Rachel Zoe: “For this Spring 2016 collection there is a strong juxtaposition between textural materials, intricate details and luxe finishes.”
Chloe Gosselin: “I’ve spent most of the past six months in nature, which has largely inspired my Spring/Summer 2016 collection. Rock formations and their layers of texture and color have been a strong inspiration, as well as the landscapes of Valley of Fire State Park in Nevada and the Rainbow Mountains in China.”
Ground Zero: “We took inspiration from traditional oriental embroidery and combined it with our own signature street graphic prints for a fun and spirited collection.”
Elie Tahari: “A futuristic desert nomad.”
Jenny Packham: “What is most beautiful in virile men is something feminine; what is most beautiful in feminine women is something masculine” – Susan Sontag”
