Here’s a look at some of the designers from day 1 of New York Fashion Week.
Rachel Comey
DESIGNER: Rachel Comey
INSPIRATION: I’m taking them to a more subtle, textural level. I wanted to play with depth, layers, and different levels of opacity
TOP TRENDS: asymmetric dresses, sheer prints, geometric angles, textural layers
TOP COLORS: white, blue, khaki, teal, dark blue, orange, forest green
ACCESSORIES: straw hats, sunglasses, flatform sandals, colorblocked loafers
MY THOUGHTS: I love the textural layers and the variety of innovative prints.

Today, I put together all my favorite looks thus far from New York Fashion Week. These four looks stood out the most for me and each one is from a different designer. Love the stripe color skirt from Jason Wu. Genius!
