New York Fashion Week: SS15

New York Fashion Week has just wrapped up, and of course I have plenty to say about it.

I'm going to delve right in and begin with the Rodarte show on 9th September. Rodarte is renowned for its abstract shape-on-shape dress designs, and for SS15 disappoint did they not. The new collection is brimming with over-lappings of texture, pattern and design, and the dresses are, as always, a harmonious combination of glitzy and edgy. However, one thing that did surprise me about their collection for SS15 is that it seems to stick to rather neutral and also fairly dark colours. Being Rodarte, I would've expected their Summer collection to showcase the light and bright.

It's also no secret that the Fanning sisters are huge supporters of Rodarte, as they are often snapped wearing their designs at events, so it came as no surprise to see that Dakota Fanning was found showing her appreciation for the brand in the Front Row of their show.

Favourite from Rodarte:


Next up is my choice of the best designer's complete collection from the entire fashion week; Paul Costelloe's. This collection just screamed oh-so-sixties at me from the top of its lungs, and boy it's been heard. What's more, I think that the shades they've used are the epitome of Spring/Summer. The pieces are so Brigitte Bardot, so super feminine and just so wonderful; I've fallen completely in love.

Here are just two of my favourites from the show on 12th September:


Now last, but certainly not least, I wanted to end with mentioning one of my all time favourite designers; Badgley Mischka. I fell in love with their exquisite dresses after watching an episode of Gossip Girl which featured character Ivy Dickens at her coming-out party, completely elegant in a Badgley Mischka gown (hated the character, adored the dress). Since then I've been entranced by their breath-taking designs, and SS15 was no exception.

Below is my absolute favourite pick from Badgley Mischka's stunning SS15 collection:


Let me know who your favourite collections from the week were!
