CHIC CHAT!

With Michael Kors How was NYFW for you? I never mind the craziness before a show...it’s nice to see everything fall into place. It’s like theater: Your actor’s in costume, the music comes on, and the orchestra strikes up the note. Fall theater picks, please! Straight White Men was fantastic. I’m going back to My Fair Lady. I can’t wait to see The Waverly Gallery, and also, A Chorus Line. It’s going to be a busy theater fall!

BEAUTIFUL MOMENT! With Daily fave Grace Elizabeth

What’s new, chérie? Thankfully, so much! I’ve spent a better part of the past year on airplanes. I’ve been to London, Paris, Portugal, Milan, Miami.… I’m super excited to have joined the Estée Lauder family. Any fun stories from summer? My 10-year-old brother lived with me! We’re from a small town in Florida, so for him, being in NYC was wild. We went to restaurants, spent time in Central Park, went to museums, and stopped at every ice cream store on the west side. FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

How was your first summer as a married woman? I spent three weeks in Europe on vacation, and it was the best summer holiday. It was really nice to travel with my husband [DJ Ruckus], because it’s rare that we’re together for that long of a period of time. Do you miss the weddingplanning process? Not so much. I was really brave with my wedding. I tried to organize it all myself. My advice is to get a wedding planner!

Hey, Kate! What’s new? Daily Front Row!!! What questions do you have? What are you working on right now? A movie called Nona, which is about a girl who gets sold into human trafficking from Central America. We started a few years ago but ended up colliding with everything going on at the border now. It’s an important subject matter to be aware of. I started a show in October that I’m acting in and producing for Netflix, which will be announced soon.

trade show

Any must-see brands or booths? Azulu; Misha Collection, for well-priced new collections; BLDWN; Maki Oh, an amazing collection from Ghana that garnered a lot of buzz at NYFW; Água de Coco and Moeva for swim with pool scene–worthy details; Gladys Tamez hats—I’m obsessed! Lulu Frost jewelry; and Guanabana bags. We also have TMRW, our destination for emerging designers. It’s always one of my favorite parts of the show. How has Coterie evolved? Coterie anchors the U.S. market for fashion trade events, bringing together 13,000 retailers and more than 1,000 brands under one roof. We’re much more international than we used to be! This season, we have amazing contingents from Brazil, Colombia, Korea, Romania, and a group of woman-owned businesses from Africa. Also, we launched our first pre-collection edition in June and first-ever BTC pop-up this July in Miami. Have you observed any major growth categories? Resort and swim are definitely trending categories over the past few years; this was the catalyst for launching FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

a resort-focused section in collaboration with Maris Collective stores, and doing the Coterie pop-up focused around resort products. Which fashion powerhouses shaped your career? Stella McCartney is a huge inspiration and fashion pioneer, from her tireless work ethic and humble inclusive nature to her laser focus on spearheading change and awareness of sustainable fashion. Marco Bizzarri—current president of Gucci, the CEO of Stella McCartney during some of my time there—is truly an innovative leader and progressive thinker. He always challenged us on how to grow—and maintain—a brand’s positioning or status. Tommy Hilfiger created an inclusive environment, and gave invaluable insights on brand building, merchandising, and marketing. Watching him edit a collection and give design advice was a learning moment for everyone in the room. Finally, Jeffrey Lasota, who I reported to for 12 of the past 15 years, is a mentor and dear friend, and has continued to support all my Coterie endeavors. Besides Coterie’s amazing partnership with the U.N., any other impactful projects this season? We’ve partnered with Que to provide all our exhibitors with complimentary water bottles. In an effort to reduce the use of single-use plastic cups and bottles, we’ve encouraged buyers to bring their own reusable bottles. We’ve also added water stations and called them out on our floor map. Anyone who forgets their bottle can purchase one at Que’s booth—10 percent of sales will be donated to the Ocean Foundation’s SeaGrass Grow initiative. Where will you be scouting for global brands—and traveling for fun? We have a busy agenda as we gear up for 2019! We have the European circuit; and trips planned to Australia, Brazil, and Colombia, all before December. Personally, I’m going to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, for some R&R, Art Basel in Miami, and hoping for some free time in Cartagena!

What’s new at Coterie this season? We’ve moved to a townhouse format, stacked on two levels. EDIT, Coterie’s home for sophisticated international collections, is now in its 10th edition. To celebrate, we’ve expanded the lookbook to include Coterie at large. It’s beautiful! Beauty @ COTERIE should be a stop on every buyer’s list. Many beauty and apothecary brands show items that are available to ship immediately—perfect for filling in holiday gift items and purchase order add-ons. Finally, there’s our Conscious Fashion Campaign display, in collaboration with the United Nations, in the Crystal Palace. Buyers can stop by to learn about what some of the brands they know are doing in terms of sustainability, and to discover new resources, such as a contingent of woman-owned beauty, accessories, and apparel brands from Africa, organized by She Trades.

FEET Shoe lovers, take note: Leslie Gallin is a total maven on the topic. As the president of footwear at UBM, Coterie’s parent company, Gallin keeps tabs on the buzzy new brands and trends in the kicks market. Lucky for vous, she’s willing to share her well-heeled wisdom. BY aria darcella

What is new at Coterie this season? Any brands to take note of ? New this season, we’re excited to have Racine Carrée from Italy, Jean-Michel Cazabat, and Paloma Barceló, just to name a few. What are some shoe trends to look out for in 2019? Any “It” items to scoop up? We’re seeing that flats and kitten heels are hot! Sneakers are still going strong, and booties are top picks. How has the presence of footwear evolved at Coterie over the years? What growth have you seen? We love the timing of the show. For the footwear industry, it’s the last show for the season and the opportunity to pull paper from retailers they have been working with, and the ability to meet and work with the apparel boutiques from the Eastern U.S.A. who frequent the show. We see an uptick in the

attention brands are paying to the event, recognizing the ability for additional selling and the retailers are embracing this, as footwear is selling at retail and they are hungry for more. What’s the best way to rock a statement shoe? Go out of your comfort zone! Be bold with color and embellishments. What’s a good tip to buy pieces that are fashionforward, but not fads? Buy classics. Well-made shoes that historically stay in fashion are key to any wardrobe. Are there any brands that are particularly good at offering styles that “toe” (no pun intended!) the line? All brands have at least one style that is their bread and butter. That’s the style to make sure you own. Spring is a unique time of year when the weather is still cool, but people are excited to break out their lighter clothes.

What are some good transitional shoe styles to invest in? Booties! Especially sock booties—they look fresh, yet they are lightweight. Have you noticed a difference in how brands are showing at Coterie to court online retailers? Truth is we are seeing Internet shopping burnout—yes, you heard me. Think about it! Ordering, only to receive things that don’t fit, and having to send them back? Or the quality is not what you thought it was from the photo? I think we are about to see independent retailers have a shining moment, thanks to human interaction and in-store experiences. Gucci now is showcasing only one of a style on the racks, yet the sales stylist comes right over to let you know they have your size and other interesting items in the back, and will bring them out to show you. This takes away the stigma of having to ask for your size and what else might go with the outfit. This is just one example of a new in-store experience. Online

retailers also need product. The best place to find out what’s happening and who has it is at a trade show. Do you have any fashion industry mentors? First, I have to say, during my days of working on Seventh Avenue, people embraced talent. A particular person would have to be the amazing Gloria Gelfand. She was the first female president at General Mills Apparel Corp, for Kimberly Knitwear, and was my boss at Escada and Louis Féraud. And the best dress buyer of the day was Janet Reis of Saks Fifth Avenue. She was on the selling floor, and she knew her customer! What recommendations do you have for packing the right shoes for running around Coterie, and New York City in general? Well, from my days of being a fashion slave and only wearing heels, it’s refreshing to have fabulous shoes by designers like Nicholas Kirkwood and J/Slides, that enable one to walk all day and still be super chic.

the

new

look

BY ARIA DARCELLA What inspired the new collection? This season takes influences from sportswear in day to eveningwear. We studied the real-life wardrobe staples of the people around us, models and influencers, and the ease to which they wear them. We were inspired by their lifestyle of traveling, picking up bits and pieces from different cities and cultures, and then reinterpreting their findings to fit their personal style. To us, this is what modern-day fashion is about—the celebration of diversity and individuality. What’s your design process like? Each season we travel the world picking up inspiration from different cultures and colors, including India and East Asia. We appreciate and use the local craft from each of these regions. The people inspire the process. We have worked with some of the same family businesses for generations and take pride in the partnership that we have with these amazing people. We also have the most incredible and talented master technicians in our London atelier. Their passion, combined with years of experience working with the FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

brand, brings a beautiful synergy to the design process of each collection. How did you choose Morgan Saint to perform at your NYFW show? We’re super excited to be working with New York City native Morgan Saint. She is raw, understated, and personal in both her music and her style. French Connection has always supported emerging, young talent—Kate Moss, Adriana Lima, Hailey Baldwin, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and British boxer Anthony Joshua to name a few. We feel that Morgan embodies our brand’s core values and beliefs. She’s modern with an edge, has loads of personality, and doesn’t take herself too seriously. We are big fans! What’s the latest for French Connection’s menswear? After focusing the past couple years on womenswear, it was time to shift some attention to menswear. The first collection under this new modern direction showed on Tuesday. I am excited to show the men’s and women’s collections in the same handwriting. This collection is for the cool metropolitan man.

it only became a business relationship in the past two years. I want to work with people I love. They all just love and support each other. I’ve never seen them fight— it’s tough working with your family every single day—and they’re all on the same page. It’s just been amazing to watch their business grow, with so many [new] retailers. They do really well. How was your NYFW? We saw you everywhere! Good! It was an emotional Fashion Week for me, because my little girl is starting nursery school. I really just go to my friends’ shows. I like seeing what they’re doing, and supporting them. What are you excited to wear now that it’s cooler? I’m obsessed with coats, so I bought this really cool camo Gucci peacoat in June. It’s just been so hot, but I think I may finally be able to wear it in a few weeks. What’s the most surprising thing in your closet? I still have my cheerleader outfit from sixth grade, and I’ve hung on to my old Sacred Heart uniforms, with the plaid skirts. A few years ago for Halloween, I was a schoolgirl, so I broke out my Sacred Heart kilt rather than buying a costume!

GUTTER CREDITS tk

When did you first become interested in fashion? When I was a little girl, just sitting with my mom in her dressing room and watching her get ready to go out. I just loved dressing up, and watching the whole process: picking out the shoes, accessories, dresses, makeup. Will you let your daughters explore your closet? Yes, absolutely! I cherish all the pieces that my mother left me, and I intend to do the same for my girls. Why did you decide to team up with Tolani? I’ve been wearing the brand for 10 years. Literally, a week does not go by where I’m not wearing one of their tops, kimonos, or tunics. I just love their stuff! When I became pregnant with my first daughter, I came to them with the idea of a mommy-and-me capsule. Tell us about the new Passport Collection! The inspiration came to me when I was sitting on an airplane, flipping through my passport, looking at the stamps, and reminiscing about amazing destinations I’d been to over the past few summers. I started scrolling through my iPhone looking at different pictures from my destinations, like Mykonos, and I thought it would be so fun to make a collection inspired by my favorite travel spots. Tolani is known for its beautiful, vibrant prints, so I really wanted to accentuate that. What’s your fave thing about working with Tolani? I love that it’s a family-run business. I work closely with Alka, her husband Raj, and their daughter Aishya, so it’s just a really tight-knit group that’s so passionate about their business. It’s been a friendship for 10 years, and

destinedto After 15 years spent modeling, Cecilia Bönström switched gears to tackle design. She cold-called a hip French brand, Zadig & Voltaire, and scored an assistant gig in 2003. Now, 15 years later, she’s the brand’s long-running artistic director. BY ALEXANDRA ILYASHOV

FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

GUTTER CREDITS tk

Why did you segue from a successful modeling career to fashion design? It’s an unusual career that I’ve had! I graduated from high school in Gothenburg, Sweden; I was a good student, I spoke five languages and had a good pedagogic childhood. But I finished my studies after high school graduation, because I wanted to be a model in Paris. I had a beautiful 15-year career modeling in Europe. Then, in 2003, I said to myself, “I’m 33, modeling is great, but I think my brain needs something else.” I had a brand in mind that I really admired, that popped up in 2000— Zadig & Voltaire—and I called them and asked if they’d take me as an assistant. How did that job interview go? Of course I was like, “What did I get myself into here?” [Laughs] But I did it. They said I had a good speech, and that I fit well with the aesthetic of Zadig & Voltaire, so I became an assistant. Has your unconventional design background, or lack thereof, actually been an asset? I can’t say the name, but I met a big designer who went to the best fashion school, and we ended up sitting next to each other at a charity dinner. There’s always a certain snobbishness between contemporary brands and high-end fashion, and we’re drinking our wine, chatting along, and it was kind of the reverse. It was so beautiful; he admitted admiration, and I said, “Listen, why are you going to

complicate things? To draw and draw, design things that wouldn’t even work on a woman in real life.” I’m just trying to create products that will aid me in my real life. That freedom has given me this security in my naïveté, of being able to do things practically, and in an easygoing way. How would you describe the brand’s vibe and design strategy? The brand is always trying to build the perfect closet for a woman—how can we help women get dressed easily in the morning for work, or for a date. Every season when I start a new collection, I try to find a muse—like Patti Smith, Nico and the Velvet Underground, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy— to find the vibe of the season, but I always start with what the Zadig & Voltaire woman is about. What’s it like working with your husband? A nightmare! [Laughs] The highlights are that you don’t have to say goodbye to your husband in the morning and have no clue what he’s doing. [Zadig & Voltaire founder] Thierry [Gillier] and I share everything, so I know when he had a bad day and when he had a good day. I wake up in the morning and hear him on a phone meeting, so I catch so much information, and I always am a step ahead. Also, sharing the passion of the man you love—that way, you’re never excluded, you’re always part of it. The negative side is that work never stops. No Saturdays or Sundays. I have no advice to give. [Laughs] I put all the eggs in the same basket, and I was naïve when I did it. People say to me, “I don’t know what you’re made of, or what your mother gave you in her milk, but you’re a strong person,” because I handle the pressure and stress. I put stress in boxes, I close the box, and I forget and move on. But if you don’t have that capacity, I don’t advise this! What are some new staples you’ve added to the Zadig & Voltaire orbit? The woolen Alabama Foulard hat with feathers is one of my signatures. Also, I invented black leather dungarees. From that piece, I invented men’s underwear in wrinkled leather that you wear with a black lace top. But the leather dungaree is one of those pieces that will last through the history of the brand.

RETRO VIBES Looks from Nicole Miller Vintage, which will hit stores in early spring.

Nicole Miller explored her own archives in order to create a capsule collection, filled with her greatest hits circa the 1980s, subtly tweaked to feel very au courant. Ahead of its release, the designer fills in your Daily on her trip down memory lane.

is newer and updated. There’s a little bit of an ’80s influence, but I didn’t want to get too caught up in one period or one time zone. The collection has a lot of very contemporary dresses. Any favorite silhouettes you’re loving for fall? I’m sure I’m not the only person doing this, but I do love a long, oversize blazer. I began last fall, and there was a lot on my runway, but for Spring I made it bigger and longer, and tweaked some of the details. The jacket is like the length of a short dress now. Blazers weren’t around for a while, and now, the blazer is definitely back! It’s just got to be a little more interesting. What were you doing in the ’80s? You have this very cool history with that particular time… I was just going to Studio 54, and then I was going to Area. The No. 1 club was called Tier 3; nobody seems to remember that, but I remember that being fun! And The Mudd Club, of course. Can’t forget The Mudd Club. What kind of a time was that for you in fashion? It was really fun. Everything was really fun back then. Everybody is a little serious now, but it’s funny when you look back—a lot of it looks pretty bad. I never had one of those silly shag hairstyles, but I definitely had my share of hoop earrings. Going out, everyone had mesh, lace, stuff like that. What else is new in the world of Nicole Miller? I have a lot of trips and personal appearances coming up. I’m going to Paris for three days for the fabric shows, and then to London in October for the art fair, and then I’ll be in Philadelphia and St. Louis for events. There’s also a trunk show in L.A. There will be a lot of traveling.

Where did you get the idea to launch a vintage-inflected capsule collection? I’ve noticed people have been copying a lot of my old dresses, so it just seemed like a trend—this longer, drape-y, kind of ’40s-style dress that I used to make in the ’80s. There really is a movement for looser-fitting dresses. People have been begging and clamoring for my old dresses, buying them up on eBay. Christene Barberich from Refinery29 found an old dress of mine, and she posted a photo of it on Instagram—it was pretty cool. This idea [of revisiting the look] has been on my mind; I tried to do it three years ago, but I couldn’t really get the sales part behind it. Now, the timing is right. I dug up some of my old vintage prints and had them reprinted on a vintage-y disco drape. I’m excited about [Nicole Miller Vintage]; it’s come together really nicely. Some pieces are new styles that look like old ones, and some are exact [replicas] of our old styles— yet they look totally contemporary. The dresses will be priced in the $200 range. Any favorite prints from the collection? There’s a funny print with little paint tubes on it. It’s really cute! I have a picture of Belinda Carlisle from the Go-Go’s wearing one dress—she’d shortened it, because it was actually a long dress. I found one in a Melrose Avenue thrift shop a few years back, and then I found a few other pieces from that exact same [print] group. I resurrected that print; some have more of a ’40s look, and some are more conversational. What’s the mood of your Spring ’19 collection? Nostalgic and timeless. I have used a lot of ideas that came from the archives closet, but literally everything

Ramy

Designer Ramy Brook’s namesake line has grown with her—and her customers. BY ARIA DARCELLA

Let’s discuss your Spring 2019 collection! It starts delivering in February, so it’s colors that are appropriate—that take you out of the cold weather and bring you into spring. So that’s exciting, and a little bit of a change from the past. As we go to March and April, the prints get bolder, the fabrics are slightly different, and we add a lot of bright colors. You released a second campaign with Martha Hunt and Sebastian Faena. What was it like working with them again? I love working with both of them. Martha is stunning and beautiful, and so great to work with. We’ve become friends—I really like her as a person. The fall and holiday campaign is spectacular, and she’s amazing in it. Sebastian’s incredibly talented, and he could shoot anybody, anywhere. Why were you finally ready to do a national ad? I’ve been in business since 2010. It took a couple of years to get our footing and understand the market, FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

how everything evolved, and business in general. It just seemed time to launch something bigger. How has social media changed your brand? Social media, and working with social media influencers, is important for us. Brand awareness, working with all different types of age groups, models, and influencers…it’s become something that is really just part of our whole plan. It’s all part of our marketing experience. In 2010, I wouldn’t have even considered that part of our marketing budget—now, it’s a big part of it. How do you choose influencers to work with? Some of them come to us. They really love the clothing, and they want to wear it and promote it. Others are [picked] by their followers: how many followers [they have], how well they’re known. We have more than 45 employees, so we speak to them often to see who they like, and who they’re following. Have your customers’ needs evolved over time? The customer’s needs, I feel, are the same as my needs. They are active, they don’t have a lot of time, and they need to feel great in their clothing. They want to look good. I think the biggest change is that everyone is multitasking. It’s not just about wearing one outfit to one thing—you really have to think ahead. What I find

GUTTER CREDITS tk

the evolution

with our customers is we’re growing up as a family. A lot of mothers and daughters wear the brand. The girl [who started shopping Ramy Brook] in her late twenties or early thirties is now a mother. So she dresses differently, but it’s still appropriate, and then, as the daughter grows up, she can wear the same clothing. Our brand is just constantly evolving. Do you ever see yourself starting an offshoot brand? We talk about a secondary line, and it seems to make sense. I definitely see it happening somewhere down the line, but it’s not something that’s on the top of my mind. We’re also working on denim; I want to learn that market. When I started, it was all about a sexy top to go with my jeans. I want to learn how to do [denim], and I feel like I could do it in a novel, great way, and have a great fit. What was it like going into your first-ever trade show? Oh, my God, my first trade show, I had no idea what I was doing! I got a 10’-x-10’ booth, and I did it because one of my friends knew the owners of the trade show at the time. She said, “I’ll give you a good spot.” I’m like, great. I literally knew nothing. Everything has changed now. We’re more efficient, and operationally, we’re on point. It’s easy to take orders, to reorder, to show things. That’s what’s been fun about starting this business not too long ago—I’ve learned a lot! Any interest in doing a show during Fashion Week? Yeah, I would like to do that. I think for my first show, I would probably do a presentation. But I guess we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. Any dream celeb models you’d love to work with? Well, I love Gisele [Bündchen]! She would be the ultimate to me. I love Gigi and Bella Hadid; I think they’re amazing. And I would also love Cindy [Crawford] and Kaia [Gerber] to do something together. I think that’s totally brandappropriate, and they would both look amazing. Such a chic mother-daughter duo. Do you ever encourage your daughter to experiment with fashion? No, I like her to wear age-appropriate clothing. I wouldn’t say she’s a “little girl”—she’s 14. That’s an age between an older teenager and a younger teenager. But I definitely like her in age-appropriate clothing, and so does she. At least we’re on the same page!

Fashion has shared a relationship with print media that’s just too strong to get punished the way newspapers do.”

back to

school BY EDDIE ROCHE

FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

we’re a school that really emphasizes experiential learning. It’s just exciting to watch it happen. Why do you think the students pushed for print? Fashion has shared a relationship with print media that’s just too strong to get punished the way newspapers do, because you don’t go to fashion magazines for information as much as for an experience. For some reason, there’s just something about the way fashion stories should get told. I always show them the Diana Vreeland documentary, The Eye Has to Travel. She’s so big on the idea of turning the page and seeing what happens next. I don’t think that’s ever going anywhere in fashion, at least to an extent. Doing it digitally just doesn’t have the same quality, and that’s the case they made to me. How did you end up launching a fashion publication? There had been this fledgling, staple-bound magazine called Fashion Sense—literally it was made at Staples— and they’d make a handful of copies, but nobody on campus would really see it. So my bosses were like, “Start a new magazine, come up with something new, come up with a new name.” They knew I had experience— I’ve run a magazine called Coldfront, with news, reviews, and essays about poetry and music, and it just kind of snowballed. The difference is that with Coldfront, it was hard to secure funding for a poetry magazine; at LIM, every department has a certain amount of money.

We were able to pay people to do the work, and it was able to take off. Truthfully, I never really knew that much about fashion until I started working here. I was an adjunct here in 2008, and I’ve just kind of always loved teaching here. The students are different, more careerdriven. It’s cliché to say you learn from your students, but I’m able to do something unexpected, and also I learned about a whole new art form, and I’m able to comment on fashion in a way I was never able to before. Why did LIM want to do a publication with The Daily? There’s just something about fashion in print magazines that’s so important, and what you guys do, which is just so wound up in Fashion Week, that’s kind of a one-two punch. The cool fashion magazine is exciting, and the fact that there’s a LIM student supplement in an issue that’s going to be where Anna Wintour is sitting, maybe… it’s just an exciting idea for people. What are your impressions of Gen Z? It’s true that there’s a cell phone addiction. I think I’m part of it, too! But that’s actually something we address in this program. Students are living on Instagram. The great benefit is this notion that you can invent yourself in a certain way, but it’s also about challenging yourself constantly and thinking critically about what you’re doing and why, and not just being reactionary; ideally, not caring whether people like your photo or whatever. It’s something I like to consider a lot.

GUTTER CREDITS tk

Why did LIM recently create a fashion media major? As a fashion business school, we’ve focused on things like marketing and visual merchandising. Media is such a huge area of the fashion industry, too, especially with everything that’s gone on in the past 10 years with smartphones, apps, Instagram, everything. That’s where young people interested in fashion live these days. If our goal is to train people for the fashion business careers they’re interested in, then this is a field that’s a critical aspect of the fashion business itself. Tell us about The Lexington Line. It was a key component to making the fashion media degree. It’s basically a fashion and culture magazine with content produced by students, launched as an online magazine in fall 2014, and in spring 2015, the first print issue came out. Since then, we’ve done one print issue every semester. It was initially just going to be online, but then they pushed me really hard to do print, because they wanted a glossy magazine. A team of three turned into six, and now, we have a team of more than 25 students. This was going on as the idea was marinating to create a fashion media degree; it made sense because

Generation next Deming ( far left) says that his students’ can-do attitude is driving The Lexington Line to exciting new heights.

A generation of fresh fashion editorial talents is gearing up to dominate the industry at LIM College. The impetus? A popular student-generated publication, The Lexington Line (and an ongoing collab with your Daily!). John Deming, director of LIM’s Writing Center, explains.

Who’s WHO

We’ve bidding adieu to NYFW, but there’s still lots of stylish action ahead—this weekend, UBM Fashion’s Coterie trade show takes over the Jacob K. Javits Center. Here’s a sneak peek at some of the exciting designers and brands showing this season. BY aRIA DARCELLA

french connection

carolyn glynos, VP OF sales & marketing BOOTH 478 What are you looking forward to at Coterie? The Spring collection came to life on the runway at NYFW; now, we’re especially excited to show at Coterie! The response was overwhelmingly positive at the show. We look forward to keeping the momentum.

french connection tolani

How will you unwind post-Coterie? Wine, a bath, and spending time with my two little girls.

XCVI

AIDA DE LA CRUZ, NATIONAL SALES MANAGER BOOTH 8105 How would you describe your brand, and who is your customer? It’s clothing you live in—casual, chic, and always comfortable. It caters to three generations of women across the globe, each generation making it their own personal look.

ALKA TOLANI, FOUNDER & DESIGNER BOOTH 8028 What made you want to become a designer? I grew up in India where fashion was all about color, beautiful textures, and vibrant embellishments. When I moved to California, I was frustrated with the lack of movement and vibrancy in the clothes I found in stores. After lots of failed shopping ventures, I decided to create my own line.

What advice would you give to your younger self about working in fashion? Never doubt yourself! There are lots of ups and downs in the fashion industry. When those “downs” happen, don’t give up, and remember your vision.

How has your brand evolved over the years? At first, we only created scarves. We got such great feedback on our scarves, we decided to expand into ready-to-wear. xcvi FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

ANNA EHRLER, CREATIVE DIRECTOR & DESIGNER BOOTH 8114 Who are your design inspirations? As ethical and sustainable fashion becomes a bigger social issue, I’m really inspired by conscious fashion brands, from big names like Stella McCartney, Eileen Fisher, and Edun, to smaller labels like Marine Serre, Richard Malone, Christy Dawn, and Reformation.

CHARLIE HOLIDAY

SINEAD JAMES, WOMENSWEAR DESIGNER BOOTH 7854 What’s the story with Charlie Holiday?

errant alexander Michael snyder

It’s an Australian-born, young contemporary brand designed for globe-trotters and jet-setters. It’s easy-wear apparel, swimwear, and accessories for both men and women. Whether traveling abroad, away for a longweekend, or even a staycation at home, Charlie Holiday has got you covered.

alexander michael snyder

ALEXANDER MICHAEL SNYDER, CREATIVE DIRECTOR BOOTH 6548 How would you describe your customer? An Upper East Side girl who isn’t afraid to get onto a motorcycle. Classic and timeless, but with a twist.

Why did you want to work in fashion? Truly, I wasn’t good at anything else. As a kid with ADD, I focused so much better if my hands were constantly moving. I took up sewing, which led to draping, and really, the rest is history. In 2016, I competed on Project Runway, Season 15. As insane as that process was, it reminded me to have fun with what the brand does.

NU DENMARK

LIV JOHANSEN, U.S. SALES DIRECTOR BOOTH 8110 j. dosi

What informs NU Denmark’s design process? A blend of minimalistic, natural, and raw materials of Scandinavia, and distinct details from the East. We aspire to design standout fashion that’s still easy to style and wear in everyday life, so our inspiration really comes from female leaders and strong women.

J. DOSI

JENNA PIANTEDOSI, OWNER & DESIGNER BOOTH 6545 How would you describe the aesthetic/vibe of your brand? Chic, with an edge.

Why did you want to work in fashion? I've always been a creative person and loved fashion. I’ve cultivated my brand through hard work, dedication, and the support of my family. Being named an FGI Rising Star finalist last year was an incredible honor, and made me appreciate all I’ve accomplished.

What’s new this season? Prints on leather, bright colors, and fun patterns. I’m excited because each collection gets better and is an expression of my growth as a designer, and how I have challenged myself and my creative boundaries.

SINESIA KAROL, FOUNDER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR BOOTH 1150 How did you kick off your fashion career? My mom used to work in fashion, and as a teenager growing up in Brazil, I developed a love for fabrics, design, and especially for beachwear. I launched my line in 2012 in New York, and Bergdorf Goodman bought it immediately. I’ve never stopped! Now we have three stores in Brazil and the U.S., and we sell all over the world.

nU VINTAGE

I’ve always been drawn to women whose style combines feminine and masculine. Our clothes are meant to be part of your permanent collection. Each piece is gorgeous, classic, and of exceptional quality, like our feminine power suits.

Who are your muses? Every style in our collection is named after the style icon who inspired it, like Marlene Dietrich, Katharine Hepburn, Diane Keaton, and Edie Sedgwick. These women weren’t bound by society’s conventions. I also adore Cate Blanchett and Tilda Swinton.

LEGAMI JEWELRY

LISA GOLDSTEIN, CMO BOOTH 7030 What’s your best-selling piece?

Our Promise Bracelet. Not only does its name and purpose make it so popular; it’s a visible promise of your unbreakable bond. The “promise” can be interpreted in so many beautiful ways. Customers have bought these bracelets to promise to love, to forgive, to never forget.

R.G. KANE

I grew up really enjoying dressing up, and I’ve always believed clothes are important. While studying fashion design at Parsons, I interned at Edun, Rosetta Getty, and Creatures of the Wind. After graduation, I moved back to L.A. and worked as an assistant designer for Raquel Allegra. After a couple years, I decided to try something on my own.

My mother has wonderful taste, and she instilled that in me. When I was a high school senior, my class voted that I’d be Lady Diana’s stylist, so I guess I had something back then! My first job was with Saint Laurent. Then I worked with some of the greatest designers—Armani, Tommy Hilfiger, and John Galliano at Dior. All these influential people taught me a great deal about business, fashion, design, and image. FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

THACKER

DANA OTT, DIRECTOR OF SALES & MERCHANDISING BOOTH 7241 How did you kick off your fashion career? I grew up with the chicest grandmother ever! I used to spend hours getting lost in her closet. I attended FIT and found my calling in sales and merchandising. I landed my first job at Gucci in 2000, and never looked back. Here I am, 18 years later, working for a brand I truly adore.

DELICATE LOVE

ANNEKATRIN KASPER-FROMM & WIEBKE SCHILBOCK, co-CEOs BOOTH 7471 What’s your best-selling piece? Our statement Rainbow coat, because it’s a color and a fabric explosion. The combination of two yarns gives a 3-D effect.

PLANET BY LAUREN G

LAUREN GROSSMAN, OWNER & DESIGNER BOOTH 6770 What’s new this season? We’re introducing a new “Foil” fabric for Spring ’19. It’s a metallic silver that is trending in the futuristic look this season. It is eye-catching and fun to do a few whimsical pieces.

Who’s your designer muse? Donna Karan. I love the way that she drapes her jersey pieces.

NICOLE MILLER

NICOLE MILLER, DESIGNER & FOUNDER BOOTHs 314 & 7665 What’s the mood of your Spring ’19 collection? Nostalgic and timeless. There’s a bit of an ’80s influence, but I didn’t want to get too caught up in one period or one time zone. The collection has a lot of contemporary dresses.

I’m sure I’m not the only person doing this, but I do love a long, oversize blazer. It began last fall, and there was a lot on my runway, but for Spring I made it bigger and longer, and tweaked some of the details. The jacket is like the length of a short dress now. The blazer is definitely back! It’s just got to be a little more interesting.

VELVET HEART

JORDAN TSABAG, EVP BOOTH 8111 What’s your label’s aesthetic? We’re a California lifestyle brand: casual, on-trend, fun.

Who are your muses? Alexa Chung. She’s got the ultimate cool-girl style, remains an industry favorite, and is a talented designer. Also, Jane Birkin—she’s iconic and effortlessly stylish.

Meet two of the brilliant agents working tirelessly behind the scenes.

AGENT R.E.D. INTERNATIONAL

Genie Parada-Fishman

GENIE PARADA-FISHMAN, OWNER & FOUNDER BOOTH 8112 What’s your agency’s MO? We help retailers think outside of the box, and motivate them to open their minds to new concepts and ideas in fashion from a global perspective. Our brands are all family-owned businesses that have soul, and stories to tell. A personal connection to the clothing is more important than ever. What separates the most successful brands is their ability to connect with their consumer, including through social media.

What’s your favorite Coterie memory? When I first opened the showroom, I represented six tremendously extensive European lines, and Agent R.E.D. International was comprised of me, myself, and I. My mother came to steam the clothing before the first Coterie show, and my husband/partner and I thought it was a cost-efficient idea to rent a U-Haul and truck the load ourselves. Well, 1,200 pieces in the back of a U-Haul van is bound to be a calamity—especially with the unexpected addition of new samples that arrived the day of the show, which we didn’t account for.… Needless to say, the return was quite the spectacle. We never repeated that mistake again! We hired truckers.

Any unusual requests from buyers? I have this fantastic mother-and-daughter team from New Jersey that comes to the showroom to buy seasonally. The mother is 78, and always requests a frozen bottle of vodka on the table for easy consumption! Not to mention the endless trips to strip bars in multiple states, where I entertained gaggles of conservative male buyers and did shots for extensions on orders.

BRAD HUGHES & ASSOCIATES BRAD HUGHES, FOUNDER BOOTH 6543 How would you describe the role of an agent?

Simply to connect the right people with the right product. The outcome we look for is a profitable retail sell-through. The process begins at a market with a wholesale transaction. We try to support and guide the entire process.

BRAD HUGHES

Christine Albers, a wonderful L.A.-based designer, approached me at the former Dallas Apparel Mart. She heard I was opening a sales agency, and asked me if I would consider working with her. I had not one brand client. I had just signed the lease. So, of course, I said yes!

What kinds of brands make the cut for your roster? Our brands have to exceed expectations in design and quality; then they can be modern, edgy, elegant, classic, or whimsical.

What are your favorite NYC activities? I'd love to have the time to wander the High Line and explore galleries, walk through Williamsburg after dining in a fabulous restaurant, or have half a day for MoMa, the Guggenheim, and The Met. But on a market trip, one of my favorite things is to have dinner with my team.

Any post-Coterie plans? My family and I are in the cattle business. I go back to my home at the ranch! I actually enjoy the chores, caring for animals, and working the land.

“I’M OVER SOCIAL MEDIA!”

FA S H I O N W E E K D A I LY. C O M

this. In the old days, people had their signature filters. Remember that gross Kelvin filter? All the dumb boys loved that. Borders are also dead, by the way, and they’ve been dead for a long time. Good to know. What do you feel like when you open Instagram? Every day, I have to go on it for work, and within a few minutes, I’m incredibly irritated by all the fake positive affirmations. Or maybe they’re real, but whatever— they’re so f**king cheesy that I want to puke. Some people are great at Instagram, like @garyjanetti, but so much of it has become a rarefied, special, pretty place, and it doesn’t resonate as much anymore. Thoughts on excessive tagging? It’s beyond tacky. Once you start labeling everyone and everything, it feels so fake! A lot of brands are catching on, thank God, and limiting that. It’s not natural to add 50 hashtags after your photo caption. That feels so tired. So desperate. So thirsty! We hear rumors that some noncelebrity influencers can earn $15k a post. Does that seem possible? Oh, it’s real. These influencers can make tons and tons of money. At the end of the day, that one person has thousands of followers who are really into them; they take their shopping advice directly from Instagram. It’s a totally different kind of power than what a brand has. Brands get a lot of bang for their buck when these people promote for them. So you don’t buy all this talk about an influencer bubble that’s about to burst? God, no. It’s going strong. Anyone who says it’s about to burst is jealous. Yeah, we know—you wish you’d gotten in there sooner! In my experience, the top marketing people who book these influencers don’t even consume digital media that much. They might be buying into it, but they’re still totally terrified of technology, and they don’t even know who these people are—they spend money so that someone else will get digital influence for them. An influencer can charge a fortune and be a total monster to work with, but at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the numbers.

If you were running a fashion brand, which influencers would you invest in? I don’t even care who they are. It’s all about numbers. Anyone with more than 100,000 followers? Get them! Go with whomever you think looks cute with your stuff. But you have to measure the engagement—compare the number of likes and comments to the number of followers. So much of the time, an influencer has bought followers and their comments are written by a bot who’s programmed to write “Chic!” a thousand times an hour. These people who you say really do shop based on what they see on Instagram—why aren’t they more discerning? You could have 3 million followers, and 2.99 million of them will be total losers. But if 50 people are buying what you’re selling, voilà—you’re driving sales. At the end of the day, it’s worth the money. There’s a reason that it keeps growing and growing and growing. Thoughts on editors who comment 24/7? Seriously—don’t you have anything else to do? Someone you want to spend time with? There’s nothing you’d rather be doing than posting hearts on a photo of a stranger’s avocado toast? Even if you’re just inanely posting emojis, it still takes a lot of time. Are you actually doing your job, or do you have some sort of tick that forces you to check Instagram 100 times a day? I guess it’s a good way to touch base with someone in your sphere of influence, if you’re an editor. But Jesus, it’s exhausting to go through life as some sort of octopus, digitally touching people all day long. No kidding. This convo is kind of a bummer! [Sighs] Well, we’re living in a time when someone’s ability to make money is what makes them valued as a person. In a weird way, even some influencer who whores himself out for a product, many of his followers think, “Go ahead! Get that money! Look at him, getting paid!” Remember when Kylie Jenner was on Forbes’ list of billionaires, but she wasn’t quite a billionaire? So people started donating money to a GoFundMe account to get her over the hump? Don’t underestimate our obsession with money. People don’t value integrity. It’s totally out of fashion!

GUTTER CREDITS tk

How long have you been working in digital media? Almost a decade now. God… Do you remember when social media came on the scene? Of course. It was super exciting; you had total control and instant gratification. Once Instagram happened? It was so exciting. Early on, there were no rules—you did whatever you wanted, and you weren’t afraid of consequences. It was so down and dirty; it was great! People who didn’t work in the industry said, “Oh, this is just a fad.” When did it become part of your job? Five years ago, it became a real part of my job, and right away, social media was significantly less fun. The scrutiny was unexpected and overwhelming. The amount of time and effort that I had to put into everything in order to service the brand I worked for was insane. Did you feel like those who were scrutinizing it really understood it? Nope. People who aren’t in the trenches with it think they know what it’s about and how it works, and they’re quick to tell you what you did right and wrong. They have no idea what’s going to resonate! And they don’t appreciate the fact that social media editors are experimenting, too. People think it’s easy because there’s a low character count and a single picture. They have no idea how important it all is. What are your thoughts on shameless promotion? People will promote anything to get a few shekels from some random vitamin brand. I see friends of mine holding up waist trainers and I think, “How are you doing sponsored content now?” It’s so inauthentic. And the fact that social media was supposed to be “authentic” in the first place? It’s all constructed! From the minute that money became a part of the conversation, it became fake. There was a brief moment when Instagram was a fun visual space when people played with filters—no one uses filters anymore! If someone’s using filters, they’re stuck in 2013. Those filters are dead. Really? Oh, yeah. If you’re going to retouch your photos, do it in a separate app! Please. People spend hours doing
