Everything You Need to Know About Fashion Week, Day 5

Is “happy Monday” an oxymoron? Definitely before coffee. And probably before scrolling down. You’ll see a roundup of yesterday’s Fashion Week wins, including a literal truckload of crystals, a puffy coat for party dresses, and also Batman.

“My son had a soccer tournament yesterday,” said Rebecca Minkoff backstage at her show. “So I took an hourlong cab ride from my studio to his game, then back because we were still doing model fittings.” The designer’s get-it-done approach to her busiest times was evident in the show, where model / influencers like Iskra Lawrence and Sami Miro toted two and sometimes three bags at a time. For women who wear many hats—boss, parent, sister, mom, activist, binge watcher, and everything in between—carrying many accessories is just part of the plan.

BTW—Minkoff’s moving towards more sustainable materials like cotton, and you can trace their sources on her website.

PRABAL GURUNG

So you think you want to be famous? Watch this video of Bella Thorne with the sound on, and see if you could mitigate the stress of simply smiling for the camera. I need a Zoloft just pressing “play.”

Thorne looks good in anything, and so does model Taylor Hill—but her turquoise tie-dye turtleneck (also seen on Ashley Graham) would be a touchdown for layering under a silk dress or a navy blue blazer.

DEVEAUX

Don’t mind me, I’m just a weepy puddle after Deveaux’s profound presentation, where mostly-older models walked in circles holding hands… or looking lost without a partner. People who know better than I do say the clothes were super, too. I’ll have to take their word for it, because I can’t see through the tears.
