LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
W
here has the time gone? In the past year, I, along with so many other members of this team, have grown exponentially, faced numerous challenges, and somehow on most occasions, have found a way to laugh through it all. Not once did I think one publication nor the people involved would have the immense impact that they have had on me in such a short amount of time. I would have laughed and said "yeah, ok..." if you told me a year ago that I'd still be in this position creating alongside so many people that I admire and respect deeply. Anyone that knows me personally would probably tell you about my connection to this magazine before they mentioned anything else as it has become an incredibly large part of my life. Which, is quite ironic considering I told myself over a year ago that this role would never take over my life - plot twist: it somewhat has. But, in all of the greatest ways. Now I sometimes find it difficult to even put my passion for this publication and all of the people that are a part of it into words as no other project has ever left such an immense mark with me. It's surreal to think that next Spring will be my last semester with DWF and I'll be passing the reigns to an incredibly competent and passionate new E.I.C., whomever he or she may be. In the past, I took these letters as an opportunity to mention our accomplishments per semester as well as standout articles and photo shoots that helped to define each issue. This time around, I chose to let the work speak for itself as I think it says a lot more than I possibly ever could. Countless hours went into this semesters projects and I sincerely hope you're able to see them all. I certainly do. Until next time -

LOAD UP THE LASHES
JEREMY SCOTT
Almost every woman fantasizes of having long, wispy lashes. Yet, in the world of fashion, you never really see much attention being given to the everyday woman’s treasure… until 2017. This season, lashes were the focal point of countless looks on the runway. Models at Jeremy Scott sported their natural upper lash length with lash extensions glued onto their bottom lash line in order to achieve the perfect amount of extravagance. At Chanel, choppy lashes complemented thick brows, floating eyeliner, and silver shadow to model the look of a futuristic woman. Spider leg lashes returned and stole the show at MSGM, as well. Lashes are getting their turn in the spotlight and we are here for it!

The dark smokey eye has a new partner in crime: metallic shades. The renovated smokey eye is still sexy and sultry, but a new shimmery component adds a fun twist to the look. In order to make the eyes the focal point of the look, the rest of the face should be left natural. Elie Saab focused a gold tone into the inner corner of the lid, whereas some shows placed a pop of metal in the middle of the lid, like at Brandon Maxwell. La Perla’s makeup artist, Erin Parsons, decided to go a step further creating a metallic plum look, sans black. Parsons crafted a plum smokey eye using Maybelline’s 24K Nudes and Expert Wear Eyeshadow in Fierce Fuchsia to achieve the bright look.

THE RETURN OF THE BERRY LIP
Along with year-long anticipation for Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice Lattes is the return of the berry lip. Any shade relating to the color family of darkened plum, burgundy, or deep red must be attempted at least once this season. The iconic fall color was spotted in various forms on the runways. Lip liner was disregarded as the color was simply smudged onto the lips of models at Gypsy Sport. A matte finish accompanied with barely-there eyeshadow perfected the look at Philipp Plein. Valentino took a more daring approach by pairing a burgundy lip with a reverse cat eye in a similar shade. With 90% certainty, berry lips will complete any fall outfit you wear this season.

Graphic eyeliner seen on the runways this fall encompasses what it means to be a beautiful, 21st century badass. Cover your entire eye from the inner corner, across the lid, and all the way to the end of your brow, like models at Versus Versace. You can also smudge black eyeliner in the outer corner of your crease to channel Saint Laurent’s modern take on “winged” eyeliner. If you want to try something less risky, but new, you can try to mimic Mugler’s floating eyeliner design.

BLACK RIBBONS IN HAIR
Black ribbons had a star moment as they were spotted on runways in New York, London, Milan, and Paris. Strands of silk or velvet black ribbons were tied into large bows, used as a ponytail, wrapped around the head as a headband, or tied delicately above hair designs. At Tory Burch, large, floppy bows were used to hold low, wavy ponytails. Temperley London could not get enough of the ribbon trend by tying thin velvet around models’ necks and using a thicker velvet ribbon as a headband. Hairstylists at Emilia Wickstead let black ribbon cascade down half up half down pin straight hair. No matter where you put it, incorporating a black ribbon into your hair will turn a simple hairstyle, into a prettier, delicate one. A/W '17

HOW-TO
DWF MAGAZINE
By: Veronica Quintero
Natural Curls at C A L V I N K L E I N
Hydrated, bouncy, and healthy curls were all the rage this Fall season on the runways. To achieve this look, simply spray a curl enhancer on the palms of your hands and rub them together to warm up the product. Next, spread it evenly on damp hair starting from the roots and work it completely through your hair. Comb, and then twirl with your fingers to give your curls shape. Let air dry, or if you are in a hurry, pop a diffuser on your blow dryer and use it on the “low” and “cool” settings.
Middle Part at C O A C H Channel your inner “it girl” with these effortlessly cool waves that were spotted on the runways from Paris to New York. First, wash your hair with your favorite shampoo and use a hydrating mask instead of your regular conditioner. Next, let your hair air dry or blow dry on the lowest setting. After that, spritz some anti-frizz spray all over your hair. Brush it out, and then part it in the middle with a fine tooth comb. Final step? Go out and flaunt those waves!
Slicked Back at B R A N D O N M A X W E L L
This next hairstyle hasn’t only been a staple on the runway, but also sported by your favorite celebrities on the red carpet. After washing your hair, use a broad bristled brush and blow dry your hair towards the back. Then, split the hair on the crown of your head in two sections, the front and the back. Spray texturizing salt spray on the back section and then tease with a fine tooth comb. Next, let your hair down on the front section and comb it backwards. Finally, secure it with bobby pins.

LESS IS MORE
Most people shudder at the thought of styling their hair in the grade school nostalgic bowl cuts of their past. This fall season, however, designers have brought particular attention to this hairstyle and revamped it to give the youthful cut an edgy flair. Versace’s addition of colored streaks to create dimension and contrast is just one example of many of how high fashion can make even cringe inducing hairstyles chic.

NEW LOOKS IN 5 MINUTES Simple everyday products for achieving this season's mostpopular beauty trends By: Gillian Marton RED HOT
THE ULTIMATE "GLOW UP"
The classic and timeless beauty trend, a bold red lip, has made its appearance on the latest runways. Ranging in hues, this trend can be seen in shows such as Valentino and Anna Sui. Although a prevalent look amongst super-models, the look is absolutely attainable as products such as the Pat McGrath Labs Matte Trance Lipstick in shade Obsessed, the Dolce & Gabbana Classic Lipstick in the shade Devil, the Chanel Rouge Allure Intense Longwear Lip Colour in shade Parete and Dior Rouge Lipstick in color "999" can be utilized to achieve the most enduring of red lips. With each additional coat of lipstick comes increasing pigment, making the look versatile and functional for every day.
While highlighter has been a huge beauty trend within the past year, the movement has continued on the runway, contributing to a clean, radiant look. Models for brands such as Badgley Mischka and Public School have been seen strutting down the runway, exhibiting beaming and luminous skin, creating the ultimate glow up. This trend is completely attainable as the Farsali illuminator mimics these runway looks. Other effective products for achieving radiant skin include the Anastasia Beverly Hills So Hollywood illuminator, Marc Jacobs Dew Drops Coconut Gel Highlighter, and the Dior Nude Air Luminizer Powder. To get the look, simply apply these products to your cheek bones and cupid bow as this will allow for a natural yet luminous glow.

MAKEUP-BAG MAKEOVER Our makeup bags need to change with the seasons. With the fall season approaching, swapping out summer coral shades for deep burgundys is a must. Giving your makeup bag a face-lift with some quick swaps will transform your everyday glam to a whole other level. Swipe on some berry lipstick with some bold liner, bush up your brows, and add a pop of color to your lids. Cover some fall glam trends in your makeup bag with some quick additions.

BOLD BERRY LIPS AT GIAMBATTISTA VALLI Nothing converts a look from one season to another more than lips. From high-shine glosses to matte liquid lipsticks, lip colors finalize your look. And for this season, nothing screams fall more than a bold berry lip shade. Try Liquid Lip Velvet by Burberry in shade Black Cherry No. 57 ($34; Sephora) or Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution in shade Glastonberry ($34; charlottetilbury.com). COLORFUL LIDS AT ANNA SUI Show your excitement for the season of chunky knit sweaters and colder weather, with a pop of color. Kendall Jenner sported Pat McGrath’s new palette at the Anna Sui show, rocking a blue shade on her lids. Follow suit with these palettes: Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture Eyeshadow Palette ($42; Ulta Beauty), and Pat McGrath Labs Mothership Eye Palette ($125; patmcgrath.com). BUSHY BROWS AT MARY KATRANZOU While brows are an important key for every season, fall takes on an emphasized approach. All natural, bushy brows are the epitome of fall glam in one's makeup look. To get the look, try using Sephora Collection Brow Thickener ($12; Sephora) or Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer ($23; Sephora) to define, draw, and fill-in your natural brows. DRAMATIC LINER AT VERSACE From daring wings to a striking color in the waterline, liner is one of the newest and most forthcoming of all of the fall trends. It adds a modern touch and eye-catching edge to fall makeup looks and can bring a simple look from plain to glam. Try: Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Defining 24HR Liquid Eyeliner ($24.50; elizabetharden. com) or Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-on Pencil ($20; Ulta).

PAT McGRATH MAKEUP MOGUL, RISK-TAKER, PRODUCT INNOVATOR, & LEGENDARY IMAGE CREATOR By Sophia Hernandez

DWF MAGAZINE
Pat McGrath, a British native, spent many hours watching classic films and being quizzed by her mother on colors, textures, and shades that worked well on African American women, initially sparking her interest in the cosmetic world. With no formal training in the craft of makeup, she is a testament to hard work, perseverance, and breaking boundaries. Starting off her career as a Receptionist, McGrath got her big break while working with Edward Enninful, who in the early 80’s, was the Fashion Editor of i-D Magazine. Because of her bold use of color and creative innovation, she gave grunge a new name, catapulting i-D into a global sensation. She also worked closely with minimalist Jill Sander and German fashion designer/founder of the Jill Sander house, surrealist John Galliano, who at the time was the head fashion designer for Givenchy. Her first makeup collection with Armani in 1999, led way to partnerships with Proctor and Gamble where she was named global Creative-Design Director. Through these collaborations, she became known for her latex petals adorned on the face, vinyl lips, bodies drenched in powder paint, and Kabuki graphics. Since those days, McGrath has been featured in a plethora of publications, worked with various photographers, is a fashion week regular (New York, London, Paris, and Milan to be exact), and is well versed with household names such as Versace, Miu Miu, Commes de Garcons, Chanel, and Dolce & Gabbana. An i-D magazine cover of ‘95 featured a bold bob cut and an even bolder black eye. With stark lines and a nude lip, McGrath put herself and the magazine on the map. The infamous photos of Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss for an Us Issue in 1994, featured McGrath’s love for dewy, fresh, and healthy skin—an aspect of her standout creations that would remain with her through the years. In September 2002, McGrath made thick brows a thing, with a strong, furry, and fuzzy unibrow. As a complement to those bushy brows, the models skin exuded a dewy radiant glow, once again setting McGrath apart from the rest of the makeup world. In September 2004, McGrath showed us that colors knew no bounds, with highly pigmented fuchsia pink cheeks, bold sky blue eyes, yellow accents, and fire-red glossy lips - making all of which flow effortlessly without question. Also in 2004, Commes de Garcons released their Autumn-Winter col-
lection, and with it, a look that brought together circus and medieval with a bold red side lip (yes, you heard that right — red lips, not on the lips, but on the side of the models face). In more recent fashion shows such as in Viktor and Rolf ’s Spring 2009 collection, models were branded with black, bold lettering, spelling out “NO” across their faces. This bold statement was delivered by the madhouse, McGrath, who supported the inconspicuous rebelling against the industry. Other models for the show featured red glossy lips and black glittery lids — both of which being Pat McGrath staples.
M
ore recently, in 2015, McGrath set out on a new venture, creating a cosmetic line that would transform the makeup world, calling it simply, Pat McGrath Labs. Beginning with the solvent-activated eyeshadow shade “Gold 001,” 1,000 units were sold out within seconds, calling for an expansion of her collection line. Once Sephora began selling Pat McGrath Labs products, makeup artists and out-of-the box creatives alike could get their hands on her unique and high-pigmented products even faster. As a testament to her character and work ethic, McGrath self-funded her company for a year, before including outside investors to take part in her “divinely disruptive discoveries.” Since then, McGrath has been seen on almost every runway, at multiple shows, and in all forms of print, continuously impressing us with her innovation, ability, and creations. Among her many accomplishments and honors, making Queen Elizabeth II’s 2013 New Year’s Honors List and being named “Member of the Order of the British Empire,” to name a few, set her apart from her contemporaries. Pat McGrath’s world renowned influence has stretched far beyond makeup — across the globe, through print, in fashion runway shows, and now, her own line of cosmetics. Acknowledged as one of the most prolific runway makeup artists of all time, with contributions to over eighty fashion shows per year, Pat McGrath is arguably the most sought after and respected makeup artist of our time.

STYLISH IN SHEARLING Shearling has helped us stay warm in various forms during the fall and winter months. For instance, most people have owned or know of Uggs, the infamous boots lined with delightfully warm fur, properly identified as shearling. Although Uggs may not be as popular now as they were in the nineties and early 2000’s, shearling has a new spot in fashion as a cozy detail both on and in outerwear from shows in New York to London to Paris. Cream shearling accompanied suede coats and jackets at Balmain and Marc Jacobs. Whereas, at Alexander McQueen, pink shearling was paired with a black leather jacket for the ultimate girly, badass vibe. At Michael Kors Collection, shearling covered an entire vest. This season’s fashion hack: investing in outerwear ornamented with shearling will give you the feeling of being surrounded by your favorite cozy blanket while still looking chic.

Our favorite far out fabric from the 1970s is back. Once dubbed as “the poor man’s fabric,” corduroy has undergone the rags to riches transformation. Although it does not compare to thick platforms and round sunglass, corduroy pieces can be paired with softer fabrics, such as silk, or styled as a full corduroy outfit. To truly channel a runway inspired corduroy look, try to make everything match within the same color family, like at Kenzo, Prada, or Mulberry. However, if you love patterns and want to be a little more daring, pair a printed top with loose corduroy pants as seen at Tory Burch. There really is no wrong way or occasion to wear corduroy, so let the good times roll.

FA B U LO U S I N F U R Last year, we saw a cosmopolitan of colorful and artsy fur coats; however, 2017 revived the classic black and brown color palette of vintage fur. Catwalks this season presented fur coats that ranged from white and cream to chocolate brown and black. At Céline, cream fur with dark brown streaks combined to make an oversized coat that was paired with a navy outfit. Coach 1941 played with several different brown furs throughout their show, but their coat with a mixture of tan, caramel, and chocolate brown fur proves that you do not need to choose one color to have a versatile and timeless piece. The first look at Vetements, a midlength dark brown fur coat layered over a plum dress, demonstrates the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a fur coat: luxury, elegance, and poise. Opting for a neutral toned fur coat this season will add effortless luxe to any outfit you wear.

If Birds of a feather flock together, make sure you grab some friends to try out this fall ’17 trend! Most designers added plumes or long feathers to adorn dresses, coats, and tops as the latest method of adding élan to clothing. For cocktail parties, Calvin Klein and Prada added feathers to knee-length dresses, creating shape as well as drawing attention to a unique version of cocktail dresses. Alberta Ferretti’s extravagant, black feathered dress, will make you feel like a 21st century black swan. Dolce & Gabbana enhanced a cerulean blue coat by placing feathers at the bottom in order to add flair and vitality. Feathers were once commonly seen on birds, but this trend for fashion is taking flight.

S H I N Y I N S I LV E R Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the silver age. Although it seems inferior, this season, silver undeniably took center stage in fashion. If you saw what Anthony Vaccarello - current creative director at Yves Saint Laurent - executed at YSL’s finale, you know that silver and sparkle took any simple outfit to the next level. From sparkly boots, tops, and dresses, to silver shirts, coats, and headbands, silver is the metal of the season. Silver was the opening color at Chanel, the show itself took you into a chic version of a NASA Launchpad. Oscar de la Renta took a subtler approach by embellishing black outfits with a strike of silver. Whether your outfit features a sliver of silver or your entire outfit sparkles in the light, you are sure to add extra glamour to any outfit.

Crimson red ensembles exerted a powerful presence on countless runways this season. The “lady in red” has never been so versatile. Peekaboo pieces, darling dresses, structured coats, and asymmetrical pairings bring the all red look to life. Max Mara demonstrated how all red could be taken from the runway to the real world by pairing a casual sweater with an edgy mid-length skirt that had a slit in the front. Jason Wu’s oversized red coat, matching heels, purse, and lipstick portrayed simplistic elegance. While Victoria Beckham chose red to spice up a long, flowy, conservative dress. No matter how you style it, red is the color to wear for fall — stop signs have met their match.

aia Gerber, sixteen year old daughter to Cindy Crawford, is successfully establishing her own identity within the modeling world. As a young American model, Gerber’s acclaim is embodied by her collaborations with high-fashion designers, a strong presence on social media, and an influential yet distinct style. Following in her mother’s footsteps, Kaia is undeniably an up and coming icon. Gerber was only ten years old when she was first introduced to the modeling realm, in which she posed for Versace’s junior line, Young Versace. She then continued to further her modeling career in 2015, appearing in a whimsical photo shoot for the Dec e m b e r - Ja n u a r y Teen Vogue issue while sporting floral dresses, fresh makeup, and playful hair styles. Then going on to participate in her first fashion campaign for Chrome Hearts in 2016, Gerber steadily maintained her perpetual rise to stardom. In the midst of balancing school and teenage life, she elevated her career after being enlisted into Alexander Wang’s infamous ‘Wang Squad,’ followed by her role as a featured model in his spring campaign. From that point on, Gerber only continued to prove and heighten her prestige as later that year she accompanied her mother on the cover of the March 2016 Vogue Paris issue, flaunting natural makeup and matching denim jackets. As her style and photo shoots progressively matured, Gerber increasingly started to partner with more high-fashion brands and designers. In June 2016, she was featured as the face of Miu Miu’s Scenique eye-wear campaign, starring in a 5-minute film showcasing multiple pieces from the collection. The culmination of her constant dedication and
admirable work ethic emerged also in June 2016 when she signed a contract with IMG Models, a highly esteemed international model management firm. Gerber was also recognized for her talents when she earned her first fashion award for breakthrough model of the year at Daily Front Row’s 4th Annual Fashion Media Awards in September of 2016. Going on to become the face of Marc Jacobs Beauty, she took the brand by storm as she also modeled for Marc Jacob’s Daisy ad campaign in which she stunned in a white floral top while holding an oversized bottle of perfume, in addition to designing a limited-edition handbag. “I’ve always loved customizing my own clothes, so working with Marc’s design team on this collaboration was so fun.” After participating in countless fashion shoots and magazine spreads, Gerber carried her abilities to the runway, first walking at Raf Simon’s Calvin Klein show during New York Fashion Week. Her most recent and impressive runway moment occurred in October in which she opened the Chanel fashion show for its Spring 2018 collection, modeling an innovative approach to pastel-colored tweed and transparent accessories. Paralleling her constantly evolving career is her growing fan base. Accumulating 2.3 million Instagram followers, Gerber serves as both a role model and prevalent social figure. However, with such a large following comes critique; after posting a picture solely in a bathrobe, she received backlash for appearing as too scandalous. Despite this minor controversy, Gerber continues to flourish as a model and media influencer. Although daughter to Cindy Crawford, Kaia Gerber has already established a modeling career in her own right. Her reputable ability to effectively pose in front of the camera, skillful strut on the most apprised of runways, and expanding fan-base puts her on a path to potentially revolutionize the modeling industry.

Stella McCartney
In a world where the ever-changing boundaries of fashion are shoved away and rules made one season are completely shattered the next, there are some things that will always be true: the LBD will never go out of style, don’t wear white after Labor Day (unless you’re Coco Chanel), and Stella McCartney is an iconic designer with a grounded approach to high couture, pure and simple. Known for her subtle, sharp, and feminine collections, Stella McCartney’s passion began at the tender age of thirteen and blossomed into what would be her debut into the industry in 1995 with her final year show at Central Saint Martins. The show garnered an electric response, featuring prominent supermodel royalty Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, and Yasmin Le Bon. Since her start, Stella McCartney has gained great accomplishments, such as becoming the Creative Director of French fashion house, Chloe, in 1997 and collaborating with the PPR Luxury Group in 2001 to develop her own influential label. Perhaps her largest success is her commitment to animals rights, refusing to use neither leather nor fur in any of her projects. She’s once stated, “As a designer, I like to work with fabrics that don’t bleed; that’s why I avoid all animal skins.” By: Lauren Edmonds

Phoebe Philo
"WOMEN SHOULD HAVE CHOICES, & WOMEN SHOULD FEEL GOOD IN WHAT THEY WEAR"
Born to British parents working in Paris, Philo was raised in Harrow-on-the-Hill, London and started showing an interest in fashion at a young age. “At age four, I used to have absolute tantrums if I couldn’t dress myself,” she once said. On her 14th birthday, she received a sewing machine as a gift from her parents with which she instantly started to customize her own clothes. She studied at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London, and graduated in 1996 before quickly joining the French fashion brand, Chloé, as Stella McCartney’s first assistant for Ready-to-Wear in Paris. After McCartney got the opportunity to create her own label, Philo succeeded her as Creative Director of Chloé in 2001 and that same year she presented her first Ready-to-Wear collection. In 2004, Philo was awarded the accolade of British Designer of the Year by the British Fashion Council at The British Fashion Awards. With Philo being the Creative Director of Chloé, the label transformed for the better—it turned into a luxury global brand. Later in 2008, Philo was appointed as Creative Director of French fashion house, Céline and the following year, she presented her Spring/Summer 2010 collection for the esteemed brand. For the second time, in December 2010, she was named British Designer of the Year and the following year, she received the International Award at the CFDA Fashion Awards. Philo is known for her minimalist and beautiful designs, and there is no doubt she continues to make an impact in the fashion industry. By: Alyssa Lamas

Miuccia Prada
What does a doctor in Political Science, a member of the Communist Party, and a mime have in common? They are all the many faces of Prada and Miu Miu designer, Maria “Miuccia” Prada. Born in Milan to a family of leather goods craftsmen in 1949, it came as no surprise when she took over Prada in 1978. Later, in 1985, she launched the iconic Prada Pocono Bag, which revolutionized the fashion industry for its use of nylon - the material military tents were made of - for a luxury item. Soon after in 1988, she launched her first collection. For her, fashion is a social statement, moreover, a reflection of one’s inner thoughts projected into a world of leather, fur, and sequins; It’s a combination of odd things: ugly and pretty, feminine and masculine, old and new. These are the thoughts that earned her the CFDA International Award in both 1994 and 2004, as well as the prestige of having a MET Exhibition after her, “Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations,” in 2012. Reflecting on her brands Ms. Prada can only say: “You have a piece of life and you have to do something with it. The more you think, the more you do, the more you act, the more you live it, the better.”

Diane von Fürstenberg
Born and raised in Brussels, Belgium, Fürstenberg first dabbled in the fashion industry after moving to Italy where she worked for textile manufacturer Angelo Ferretti. Once married to Prince Egon von Fürstenberg, she maintained a lavish and extravagant lifestyle. However, dedicated to pursuing a career of her own, Fürstenberg moved to New York following her divorce in an effort to establish herself as a fashion designer. In 1974, she designed the infamous wrap dress, signifying femininity, strength and confidence. Empow-
ering women around the globe, Fürstenberg’s flattering and versatile take on fashion immediately began to shape the ideals of what it means to dress like a woman, embodied by her marketed slogan, “feel like a woman, wear a dress!” Re-branding the company in 1997, Fürstenberg emphasized the principles which epitomized her brand: a global luxury lifestyle. Her notion of femininity, individuality and simplicity as expressed in her designs have completely reshaped the fashion industry. Fürstenberg’s success and persistence in establishing a brand which exemplifies these concepts earned her the current position of Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) president while she continues to expand her thriving business.

BLACKLISTED Saying the color black is a fashion trend deserves it’s very own exaggerated eye roll equipped with the standard yawn, because since when has black ever gone out style? No, black will always be the perfect color to slim waistlines and provide an edgy appeal to any outfit. What’s fresh about black this season is the way designers like Miharayasuhiro and others have reclaimed the color to illustrate what many people are fighting for today: freedom and the right to protest.

ANTHONY VACCARELLO

Italian-Belgian designer, Anthony Vaccarello, has been dedicating his passion and creativity to the fashion industry for over ten years now. As a result of his immense ambition for success within the industry, he’s gone on to being appointed as the newest Creative Director of Saint Laurent. Prior to this, designer Karl Lagerfeld employed Vaccarello at Fendi, where he worked primarily with fur designs for two years. He then proceeded to create his own debut line in Paris, showcasing his sensual and sexy fashion creations. In 2014, Vaccarello was named Creative Director for Versus Versace, working alongside Donatella Versace. Seeing no limits or boundaries, what he imagines in his mind DWF MAGAZINE
is what he creates in reality. He recently took an extraordinary approach at Paris Fashion Week with some breathtaking scenery, utilizing Trocadero, a tourist attraction with a perfect view of the Eiffel Tower, as his location for Saint Laurent’s Fall '17 show. With models walking in his latest pieces and stunning architecture overlooking the runway, this proved to be one of the dreamiest shows of the season. Vaccarello shows his originality and artistry through his designs at Saint Laurent, continuously upping his game by implementing his Italian influence on this prestigious French brand. From ostrich-feathered skirts to leather pants accompanied with silk blouses, we’re eager to see what's next to come from this brilliant designer. By: Martín Soto
MARC JACOBS Marc Jacobs is undoubtedly one of the most well-known men in the fashion world. He was born in New York City, and bounced around to different places during his life due to some family issues. When Jacobs was seven years old, his father died from a condition Jacobs also suffers from and his mother did not take his death very well, and went through many failed marriages. Jacobs did not feel a connect with his mother and siblings, so he decided to move in with his paternal grandmother on the Upper West Side of Manhattan when he was a teenager. His grandmother made him feel just at home—she was well-traveled and educated. She had a love for aesthetically beautiful things, and she also appreciated Jacobs’ creative designs. Jacobs felt free living with his grandmother—she never doubted his ability to become a fashion designer, and she never stopped him from exploring things that boys usually are not “meant” to explore (like tap dancing lessons). By the age of 15, Jacobs was
attending the High School of Art and Design during the day, and after school he worked at the upscale clothing boutique Charivari. Even though Jacobs was so young, the staff of Charivari allowed him to design sweaters for the store in between his other duties—folding clothes and dressing mannequins. This job gave Jacob a spot at Parsons School for Design where he immediately stood out—he won both the Perry Ellis Gold Thimble Award and Design Student of the Year at graduation in 1984. Right after graduating, at the crisp age of 21, Jacob designed his first collection for the label Sketchbook for Reuben Thomas. In 1987, he became the youngest designer to ever win the Council of Fashion Designers of America Perry Ellis Award for New Fashion Talent and in 1997, Jacobs was named Creative Director of Louis Vuitton, while simultaneously running his own namesake brand. Jacobs is known for his edgy and experimental designs, and each year he continues to surprise the fashion industry.

BRANDON MAXWELL Brandon Maxwell is more than just an American fashion designer—he is also a director, photographer and stylist. Born in Longview, Texas, he acquired his impeccable fashion taste at a young age as he was always surrounded by women who dressed as if they were about to hit the runway. His grandmother owned a boutique in Longview which is where he spent most of his time. Young Maxwell used to put together outfits and photograph his friends in them. In 2004, Maxwell began studying at Marymount Manhattan College in New York before transferring to St. Edward’s University in Austin, Texas. At St. Edward’s, Maxwell studied photography and received a Bachelor of Arts in Photocommunications. He then moved back to New York to begin working. Maxwell did not have any trouble scoring interesting jobs—he began assisting stylist Deborah Afshani in 2009, followed by Edward Enninful, and then Nicola Formichetti in 2010. Maxwell has also been Lady Gaga’s Fashion Director since 2012. Since Maxwell was always surrounded by strong, impeccably dressed women, it inspired him to launch his luxury women’s readyto-wear label, Brandon Maxwell, in New York in 2015. Maxwell yearned to make women feel beautiful, classy, and confident. Maxwells clothing focuses on sharp tailoring and sculptural details and his entire collection is designed and produced in New York City. Brandon Maxwell is a timeless brand that continues to receive recognition.

CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN Christian Loboutin was born and raised in Paris where he acquired an early love for sketching and designing shoes instead of focusing on his studies. After going through a punk and party boy stage, Louboutin ran away to India where he lived for a year. After his time outside of Paris, he returned back with a portfolio full of sketches of new takes on high heels and quickly landed an apprenticeship under Roger Vivier. After learning the tricks of the trade with Vivier, Louboutin ventured on his own and opened his first shoe store in 1991 with red-bottomed pieces from his latest designs. Since his first shoe store, Louboutin has gone on to grace numerous runways, countless red carpets, and every celebrity "must-have" list. If you didn't know the name before, you certainly knew the signature long heel and red bottoms.

Supermodel Son With a face that

With his striking blonde hair and “boy next door” looks, it’s no surprise Presley Gerber is progressively taking over the modeling world today. Following in the footsteps of his former-supermodel mother, Cindy Crawford, Presley clearly possesses the modeling gene in his DNA. Like his mother, he carries with him the famous mole that identified Crawford as a supermodel during her modeling days in the 1980's. Not to mention, his younger sister Kaia Gerber, is also a notable and prominent model in today’s industry as well. It's safe to say: good looks definitely run in this family. At only eighteen years old and already signed with IMG Models, to date Gerber has walked for numerous shows and posed for plenty of renowned photographers. His first runway debut was for Moschino’s Los Angeles Resort show where he killed it in a clementine, double-breasted, lace suit accompanied with a floral lei and vibrant sneakers. Taking place right after his high school graduation, Presley went straight from a cap and gown to designer clothing, celebrating this milestone in his life on the runway. At Milan Fashion Week, he strutted down the runway for Bottega Veneta’s Spring 2018 Ready-to-Wear show. While at this year’s London Fashion Week, he shared the runway with his younger sister for the Burb-
erry show. Other runway shows he has appeared in include, Dolce & Gabbana, Balmain, Zadig & Voltaire, Tommy Hilfiger, Armani, and Phillip Plein. As for modeling in front of the camera, his first editorial debut was shot alongside his sister, Kaia, by notable photographer, Bruce Weber. Gerber has been featured on the cover of Seventh Man Magazine, as well as, in pages for publications such as Vogue Paris and Vogue Hommes, to name a few. He’s also appeared in advertisements for Calvin Klein, Dolce & Gabbana, and Balmain. Talk about making it big. The modeling world can be hectic with countless fashion shows and photo shoots to attend, but Presley Gerber never strays away from enjoying his teenage years to the fullest with his friends and family. Through working with professional photographers over time, Gerber has acquired a passion for photography. Creating his own magic and showing people his views from behind the lens, Gerber takes pride in photographing stories and shares them with his nearly 500,000 followers on Instagram. At such a young age and with so many impressive successes under his belt already, what will Presley Gerber do next? One thing’s for sure: whether on the runway, in magazines, or as a professional, big-named photographer, we will definitely be seeing a lot more from Presely Gerber in the near future. A/W '17

SUMMARY
SEASON OF THE
From oversized coats to paper bag t-shirts and wearable shower curtains, this season had it all. New York, Paris, Milan, and London dressed up for Fall ‘17 Fashion Week and gave us a peak of their best looks for the season. By: Isabela Fraiz
Political activism and the celebration of women’s diversity were the main themes at New York Fashion Week. However, the big apple had much more to offer. One of the highlights was the debut of Raf Simons on the runway as Calvin Klein’s newest creative director. His collection has been said to reference youth and rebellion, with sleeves playing a key role in his designs. Moreover, he showed that he truly is in a New York state-of-mind, featuring the famous I <3 NY logos on different pieces. As to womanhood and diversity, the runway promised that we would see more 126

shapes and sizes, and it stuck to it. Casting has been diversifying in the fashion industry for the past few years, and this season’s New York Fashion week collections had the most plus-sized models on the runway ever. Ashley Graham was one of the most acclaimed models, who strut the runway for Michael Kors. Iskra Lawrence, another favorite, walked for Christian Siriano and Chromat. Perhaps one of the most interesting runways this season at New York Fashion Week was Lacoste. Felipe Oliveira Baptista took us on a galactic voyage and transported us to the Space Age.
The runway was decorated as if it was another planet, with huge windows as a background and amazing sights of NYC. Across the globe, the City of Light did not disappoint either. Paris Fashion Week was the stage to a show of innovation and fashion individualism. This season, designers did not come together around a specific theme, but decided to celebrate each one’s uniqueness and outlook on life and fashion. Chanel dropped jaws by launching a mock rocket in the Grand Palais and introduced a stunning style of galactic meets chic. Models wore headbands as they strutted down the space-themed runway, and Karl Lagerfeld received standing ovations after this masterpiece of a collection was shown. Speaking of spectacular runways and jaw-dropping settings, Louis Vuitton’s multi-cultural statement at the Louvre was an absolute game changer. Featuring a refreshing diversity of models, Nicholas Ghesquière was the first to show a collection in the Sculpture Atrium of the renowned museum. The designer was said to aim to re-create a sense of multi-cultural collectivism and lack of boundaries. “I think fashion has always broken those frontiers. Especially in Paris— it’s the land of foreign designers; it’s so multicultural. Being in the Louvre where everyone is welcome, where there is no limit of culture, of nationality, is a strong message” said the designer about his collection. Change being the only constant, Paris was also the stage for goodbyes and new beginnings. Clare Waight Keller presented her final collection as creative director for Chloé, with a runway full of strong shoulders and that Chloé girl mystique we all know too well.
W
hen it comes to energetic expressions and celebrations of womanhood, Milan Fashion Week takes the prize. The city was witness to the absolute state-of-theart collections of a few of the world’s most remarkable brands – Versace, Gucci, Moschino, and Fendi, amongst others. Designed for strong, feminine souls, Versace pleased the crowd with an amazing collection that used a wide range of fabrics, shapes and colors. Messages of love, courage, unity, and strength were portrayed throughout the whole show and conveyed Donatella’s strong principles. Speaking
of strong ideals, one cannot forget to mention Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele and the groundbreaking collection he presented this season. “I’m trying to follow my rules, not fashion rules,” said the designer regarding his Fall ’17 show. The runway itself portrayed the designer’s originality and uniqueness, having the models strut down what seemed to be a “caged,” very futuristic catwalk with colored lights. Another designer that aims to remain unique and use exciting materials is Jeremy Scott. One would think that after the Carnival of paper dolls he presented in the Spring, his paper days would be over. But, think again, because at this season’s Fashion Week, he presented a collection using paper bags and cardboard inspired outfits. With cardboard couture, duck tape ensembles, and trashcan lids as hats, this season’s Moschino theme seemed to be more “Haute recycling” than anything else.
L
ondon proposed an interesting approach this season, featuring dynamism that is rooted in the diversity of nationalities amongst the designers, something that has yet to be seen in any other city. The brand Ashish made a bold statement on love and race with its eclectic collection and glittery runway. Other designers tried to steer clear of any political statements, such as Sharon Wauchob who aimed to escape the Brexit turmoil at the time through fashion. The designer offered a rather alternative show that took place in Saint Cyprian’s Church, which is curious, considering she tried to use her show to help fashion week goers escape from any social tensions. On the other side of the spectrum, there is Burberry, a brand that stuck to its very much British style and minimalistic runway while adding an interesting twist to it. The runway featured a band playing in what seemed to be a different language, something that many criticized afterwards claiming that this music made it almost impossible to truly enjoy the collection. With its ups and downs, London Fashion Week definitely left a lot to talk about and many of us looking forward to these designers’ next endeavors. Ultimately, every Fashion Week is full of new styles and big surprises, and as much as we enjoyed the Fall in all of its coziness, we cannot wait to keep up with whatever Spring will bring. See you next season!
