I’m already looking into Fall investments and Summer isn’t over. The runway shows are where I’ll be this September. Fashion Week is coming up soon and I’m getting my outfits ready. Additionally, I wanted to start investing in my Fall gear for New York. It will be my first Autumn/Winter in NYC. I’ve been four years running around Europe. I dearly miss Europe. Europe is not as cold or bi-polar weather as NYC is. Furthermore, in A/W there is a lot of trends going on from the 70s-90s to the future galactic. I’m just sticking to my own vibe this season. This fall, I’m inspired by Phoebe Philo. Which most fast fashion brands have completely ripped off. But what they forgot is her silhouette for women casual trousers; which not a lot of designers have successfully achieved. I was recently looking back at her collections for Céline (which was my whole teenagehood). Phoebe Philo is the most underappreciated women in fashion. She was legit an artist. Her take on Céline inspired me to dress more minimalistic adding edge with silhouettes and raw hems. I took her approach for Céline and added a little touch of me. I want to add some raw elements and minimalistic pieces into my wardrobe. I really love every single of these garments. I don’t have a particular style. I’m not preppy or streetwear. I like to mix all different styles into one style. It’s the only thing I can keep unique and different from everyone else. It’s hard to be different now and days, with everyone kind of having the same approach to clothes. In my opinion, fast fashion has ruined fashion. I like the accessibility to those who can’t afford it but I also like UNIQUE pieces. It’s been hard to have a unique piece without fast fashion copying it. Which is why I looked for smaller more boutique brands. This year I want to support more boutique brands. I feel like some of these brands go really underrated.
