Layering was one of the top trends during the New York Fashion week last week on its sixth day using fabrics that when compiled together created a textured look.
Designers Alexander Wang and Peter Som both used it on models that looked as if they emerged from closets wearing their entire wardrobe.
Another popular trend was sleeves that contrasted with the rest of the outfit either separated by colour or by fabric which was seen on designs by Derek Lam and Chris Benz.
In order to get these fashions right, you will need a long sleeve t-shirt to slide under these designs and a nice roomy coat to go over top of it.
Another notable titbit from last week’s fashion week was the Roderte runway drama, which showed insiders how Laura and Kate Mulleavy have become big names in fashion in a relatively short period of time.
Their collection was themed with the half conscious state one finds themselves in at night while drifting off to sleep utilizing soft lace dresses in dusty palettes that resembled a mix of wallpaper prints and vintage lingerie.
Also in the Roderte collection were chunky knits that looked worn in a way that might resemble your favourite sweater after a few years of use, but in a great luxury way.
Vera Wang of course brought black to the runway showing once again how black can be utilized as a light colour with the title ‘The Bride Wore Black.’ Although black may be technically a non-colour, Wang brought it to life using a yin and yang contrast such as s Nehru jacket outfitted with sexy barely there sleeves.
