HEARD

With Doutzen Kroes, who appears in the new campaign for Repeat Cashmere Booth: 2625

How did you hear about Repeat?

Years ago, we were shooting an editorial and the stylist, Jetteke van Lexmond, had Repeat scarves at the shoot. I immediately asked if I could keep one, as I loved the way it felt on my skin. After a while, the Repeat family asked me to work with them.

What do you like about the brand?

I love that it’s a big family and they work from their passion to create amazing quality and luxury for women.

Do you wear cashmere 24/7?

Not when I’m on holiday in Ibiza, but eight months a year, for sure!

future talk!

Steven Kolb on Rebecca Minkoff’s #SEEBUYWEAR SHOW model Booths: 2614 & 2619 Thoughts on direct-toconsumer shows?

The CFDA and myself are deeply involved in this conversation. We started a study with the Boston Consulting Group on the relevancy of Fashion Week and how it should shift. We’ve interviewed a lot of people, and the overwhelming response is that everybody wants something new.

“I love it!

I really APPRECIATE it.’

Tommy Hilfiger

SETTING SAIL!

—GIGI HADID, of her Daily cover

With Tommy Hilfiger at his NYFW show Booth: 4821

Love the set.

It’s very boring to watch a fashion show on a white runway with white walls. My team has made my dreams come true.

What inspired the nautical moment?

I love nautical, yachting, sailing. We’ve always done nautical for Spring/Summer, but winter nautical is very appealing with the great coats and gold buttons and authentic military details.

We wanted to make it cinematic and sexy.

TOTAL LOVE FEST!

With Ellie Kemper

We assume you’re wearing Kate Spade to her show today?

You nailed it. They put forth a very bright and colorful image, and I want to be a part of that. It’s also very elegant and chic.

Love Kimmy Schmidt! We binged.

That’s such a huge compliment.

When is it coming back?

April 15th! Tax day! To cushion the blow of the IRS? What do you think of Kimmy’s wardrobe?

Speaking of colors! I have found that when I wear all the colorful prints and solids she wears, I feel cheerier. I’m trying to incorporate more of that into my own wardrobe.

I do think it affects your outlook.

TEMP CHECK!

With Kate Bosworth AT KATE SPADE’s nyfw show

How are you?

I’m not feeling well today.

I have a terrible cough.

First time at the Rainbow Room?

My dad used to take me here when I was a little girl. He worked in the city, and we lived in Connecticut. I feel very nostalgic.

What did your father do?

He worked for Zegna as executive vice president of North America. He ended up working at Talbots.

Femininity reigned supreme in Milly’s Fall ’16 collection, where lingerie staples popped up in everyday looks (which was parfait timing for the impending Valentine’s Day holiday). The more daring Milly-phile can opt for separates, like a deep-cut bralette or banded sheer blouses. Yet, in this collection, layering was key. Long trenches created a peekaboo effect, and Michelle Smith even masterminded a few inside-out looks, layering bras over the more prudent sweater. Needless to say, from this fall medley, there’s something to suit every Milly fan’s wardrobe.

tommy hilfiger All aboard the S.S. Contrarian! Tommy Hilfiger went nautical for fall, turning the Park Avenue Armory into a ship-shape spectacular and injecting some feel-good fashion into a season of ultraserious clothes. Stripes, an anchor print, sparkly collars, and the occasional tiara made for a winning formula. Of the many riffs on the sailor suit, the overalls seen paired with a tough-girl tank on Binx Walton were extra strong.

Hilfiger used so many buttons and pins in all incarnations that it’s safe to say that the Garment District’s trimming shops will have a very good first quarter. And if the waters are rough, well, a furcollared moto jacket or a long shearling are sure to stave off any chills.

BEAUTY TREND alert!

Booth: 1814

The theme for Nicole Miller’s Fall ’16 show was, to say the least, fitting for the impending polar vortex in NYC: nordic chic (“You can blame me for the weather,” Miller told us). Amid an ice sculpture and a chill-inducing fog-filled runway, models paraded along in a medley of fur coats and Scandinavian-inspired prints and fabrics that had us shivering in our seats. Highlights included long boho dresses—many with deep Vs and some bedazzled—’70sthrowback tassel necklaces, and separates, such as semisheer, boho-patterned tops and a fringe-lined skirt. #NMGoesNorth was certainly the appropriate show hashtag!

BCBG maxazria The performer was the muse for BCBG MAXAZRIA’s Fall/ Winter collection. Stevie Nicks would have had a field day with all the asym hems and bohemian dresses and skirts. Shiny Lurex, silver bra tops, and stripes paid homage to the late David Bowie, who also happened to be part of the soundtrack for this show. Slashed tights were the kind of thing that were de rigueur for ’80s hair bands, but this collection was anything but Mötley. The mishmash of influences turned out layers and layers of hits.

Princess Elizabeth of Toro, a Ugandan politician, lawyer, diplomat, and model, was Zac Posen’s inspiration for Fall. He also pushed his brand image in a new direction by incorporating more daywear, such as a bigger selection of suit jackets and dress pants in jewel tones, and informal evening wear.

If this looked like a major departure for Posen, it was strategic. The liberty print theme that ran throughout the collection looked best in a strapless burgundy-andrust-hued wrap gown, but it’s those versatile all-black draped asymmetrical numbers that will likely be the best sellers.

always say, I would never do this and that, I would never put a ruffle on a dress. But the way people dress changes, and you should, too.”

Beware the celebrity designer.

“It’s a very weird time—many good designers are stuck in the backroom working behind a celebrity label. The public seems to want the celebrity, not the designer, especially in America. My advice to young designers is to have a clear goal, go for what you want, and don’t get stuck in a rut.”

Always aim for reinvention.

“People dress more casually today. I’m a guilty party, sitting here in my ice-skating clothes. We now dress women for every aspect of their life—casual occasions, cocktail parties—and we make great jeans and separates.”

Embrace technology. “I love innovation, especially technological. I am always looking for cutting-edge fabrics and new materials. I studied at the haute couture school in Paris [French Federation of Fashion and Ready-to-Wear Couturiers and Fashion Designers], so I have a technical background. We do all our patterns and draping in-house, a skill I feel is being lost. These days, a lot of designs are being sent as a tech pack to Asia—you’re at the mercy of their patternmakers.”

Runway shows should be magical. “My first one was for the Fall 1991 season, and we had Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Yasmin Le Bon, and Gail Elliott on the runway. The show was at Laura Belle, and was very ’60s mod, with lots of color blocking.

We showed 58 pieces, and when it was over I was like, We have to do another one. Some shows today are too long—some have 80 or 100 looks. I’m already snoring at 36.”

Trust your instincts, and don’t be railroaded. “I’ve done 50 shows over 25 years, which is crazy. Every show is different and sometimes you look back and think, I love, love, love. Others, you say, What the hell was I thinking?

We always work with stylists—some are great, and everything falls into place, and sometimes, you have to put your foot down.”

relationship—things start out wonderfully, and then sometimes, they dip. You need to keep things interesting for customers—do events, make sure your windows are very creative, ensure that your staff is happy and engaged. Fun experiences can now be created online, too. I’m reasonably tech savvy, but social media has created so much extra work—we now have someone doing Instagram and Pinterest full-time.”

Inspiration is everything.

“I am inspired and invigorated by my staff. For my collections, I am often inspired by ancient cultures and strong warrior-like female characters. My customer is a good girl with a bit of a bad girl edge to her. For Fall, we’ve gone with a Nordic idea—I wanted everything to be snowy and icy. Maybe it’s the lack of winter around!” ß

Velvet Heart

bamboo fleece to avoid uproar from retailers! This season, she was inspired by her global romp, scouring the market for innovation in knits, textures, and fabrics, while staying true to the demand for softness. The eternal bestseller is the fur trim poncho.

What trends are you seeing?

The concept of trends themselves has changed. They don’t disappear each season; they stay and take a different shape. There’s been a tremendous shift toward casual dressing, but in a way that’s polished and sharp. Velvet Heart epitomizes casual dressing by offering the best shirtings on the market. They’ve established a reputation as the go-to resource for Tencels, rayon, and plaid under $100. They also offer fabulous dresses, soft pants, and jackets.

And the shirtings trend…

Karl Lagerfeld said, “If you ask me what I’d most like to have invented in fashion, I’d say the shirt. For me, the shirt is the basis of everything.

Everything else comes after.” It's not a trend; it's a critical element of good style.

What else are you noticing PROMOTION

about women’s style?

Women are taking more risks and fashion is so accessible.

Bloggers are the stars of today; they show girls how to mix colors and textures, like shades of denim. I love wearing a Velvet Heart medium-wash denim shirt with dark jeans and a blazer.

You mentioned Velvet Heart offers dresses.

I adore Velvet Heart denim dresses worn with opaque tights and boots, with a vest or cardigan over the look. For a long time, girls in Europe have layered pieces to make them season-less.

The concept has now arrived Stateside.

Any new brands this year?

Our strategy is to keep consistency with our brands, but I always have an eye to newness.

Anatomie, epitomizes the trend of versatile lifestyle fashion for the modern woman. She has a career, a child, she goes to the gym, and she travels the world. The same outfit components need to work for all of those. Kate and Shawn Boyer, brand founders, identified a niche in the market. Anatomie can

be credited as a leader in designer travel clothes. The Anatomie woman has a global perspective, traveling for work and leisure, and she wants quality garments that meet her needs.

What makes Anatomie special?

Picture Prada meets Lulu. It's all about essential staples. I can’t take off my Anatomie “Skyler." It's stretchy yet has structure, which makes you feel polished. The fabrics and product are Europeanmade, machine washable and wrinkle resistant. They are sleek and versatile and take her from day to night. It's accessible luxury at its best. ß

We hear you recently moved your showroom.

After 10 years in the same location, it was time to move to a space with new energy. We’re now located at 225 West 37th Street, on the ninth floor. I knew it was the right move when I saw the name of my neighbor, Second Life. It was a sign.

How do you like the space?

We love it! It’s a 5,500-square-foot loft with amazing light. And we love our neighbor, Mood Fabrics. It’s where Project Runway is filmed, so it’s a guarantee there will always be action and excitement.

What is key to servicing your customers?

Besides artisan coffees and teas and the occasional libation, we are known to go the extra mile by handdelivering bagels, lox, and schmears from Brooklyn.

I want customers to have a memorable experience— after all fashion should be special, and most of all, not too serious! It's about more than just the product; it's about relationships and connecting with customers.

What else are you excited about?

Our product mix for the New Year. We currently represent Capote, Velvet Heart, XCVI, NÜ Denmark, Spanx, a product development division, and recently Anatomie.

Let’s talk highlights. What’s your longestrunning success story?

Capote has been a key brand in our assortment for eight years, and the brand has garnered a cult following for its incredible one-of-a-kind signature fabric, a special blend of bamboo and stretch with a fleece texture. It’s luxuriously soft, and you never want to take it off. It’s a chic way to be comfortable.

Who is the Capote customer?

If there’s a brand that’s for every woman, this is it!

The secret is in the well-shaped silhouettes, the cozy fabrics, and the incredible faux fur trims.

What’s new for Capote?

Evelyn Riddle, creative director, has expanded her fabric offering, but she’ll always offer her signature
