WE DIVE INTO WHAT WE KNOW…

New York Fashion Week is coming to an end but is the official kick-off of fashion month! Over the past week, mainstay brands like Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger looked to reinvigorate the classics, while labels including Alaïa and Off-White, who typically show in Paris, crossed the pond to define what American fashion means to them

In the high-stakes world of global fashion, New York has long stood in the shadow of its European counterparts, but as the dust settles, we are seeing our favorite city starting to confidently carve out its high-fashion identity and illuminate a distinctive American aesthetic.

Ralph Lauren got things started in the Hamptons last Thursday, recreating its iconic Polo Bar for many A-list guests. At the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum the following night, Alaïa reunited many a-list supermodels that shaped fashion for generations, while Kendall Jenner led the procession around the art museum In addition to all of the excitement, Rihanna’s glittering appearance in a crystal mesh ensemble by the French luxury house was one of our favorite iconic moments of the evening.
