Badgley Mischka masters uptown glamour

Posted by

ApparelMagic client Badgley Mischka has always oozed glamour, but this time they’ve turned it up to 11. Give them a gown, skirt—even an overcoat!—and they know just the way to cover it in embroidery, drape it in lace, or encrust it in sequins.

In a runway show at New York Fashion Week, their red, pink, and white color story was perfectly timed to the Valentine’s Day spirit. With odes to romance like a full-skirted ballgown in a lush burgundy matelasse and a pink chiffon gown strewn with silk rose petals, Mark Badgley and James Mischka set the mood.

From debutantes to grand dames, the pair had something for everyone. Wool parkas and roomy trousers looked equally as glam as leopard-spotted coats. Sinuous white silk dresses hugged every curve while there were plenty of more conservative little black dresses with high necklines and velvet collars. Women of all ages and styles can fall in love with one of their red carpet worthy dresses. And that’s the magic of Badgley Mischka.

Zero + Maria Cornejo goes bold on basics

Posted by

Local manufacturing. Eco-friendly fabrics. A sustainable design ethos. ApparelMagic client Maria Cornejo’s values reflect everything we want to see in the fashion industry. And more than that, they seem totally authentic to her.

A post shared by PR Consulting (@prconsulting) on

At her latest Zero+Maria Cornejo collection shown at New York Fashion Week, Cornejo pared back her designs to simple, elegant shapes. These are clothes that will last the test of time, with knockout draped gowns, cozy outerwear, and classic separates.

Minimal doesn’t mean boring, however. A selection of garments from jumpsuit to coat in a tomato red corduroy were bold and camera ready, while her shearling trimmed leather coats are a street style snapper’s dream.

Nicole Miller’s girls are a little bit punk, a little bit rock and roll

Posted by

ApparelMagic client Nicole Miller keeps her finger on the pulse of the fashion. Hitting all the trends out of the ballpark at her New York Fashion Week show this week, she imbued her vision of the Nicole Miller girl with a hint of borrowed-from-the-boys style.

Her signature cool girls this season walked the runway with a more punkish vibe than usual. Wearing layered leathers, plaids, and sweats, these girls took these menswear standards and recombined them in nonchalantly with classic dresses and skirts.

Patches, a huge trend already making its way over from Europe, were well represented in Miller’s line, with stars and crests and text piled onto velour hoodies, leather jackets, and even eveningwear.

Florals, too, got an upgrade. Mixing multiple grungy flower prints together on the same dresses, she made the girly staple androgynous and edgy. Camo even got in the act when it was overprinted in metallic blossoms.

At New York Fashion Week, Eckhaus Latta puts out its most mature show yet

Posted by

Just as the fashion world is getting comfortable calling Eckhaus Latta the hot young thing, designers Zoe Latta and Mike Eckhaus showed they are capable of dressing not just über cool clubbers but now arty intelligentsia too.

This season’s big ticket at New York Fashion Week, the ApparelMagic client showed in a huge industrial space deep in Brooklyn. Beginning their runway show with a cycle of professional wear in creamy eggshells and greys, it was clear this show would be the pair’s most successful foray into the big leagues.

A twenty first century Jackie O suit rendered in thick, color-blocked knitwear, was paired with sheer gloves and worn with just the right amount of irony.

Another knitted pattern, this time in grey and orange, appeared on a male model in the form of a crew neck sweater in one look, and later showed up sewn as a cocktail dress on a female plus size model, demonstrating Eckhaus Latta’s inclusive philosophy with ease.

Indeed, in a climate where fashion is figuring out how it fits, Eckhaus Latta is disrupting the status quo and bringing the industry into 2018.

Sea is reinventing stylish staples

Posted by

Always centered on the target and hitting the trends at the exact right moment, Sean Monahan and Monica Paolini’s brand Sea constantly puts out the kind of clothes that ahead-of-the-curve women want.

Never fussy or attention-hogging, the ApparelMagic client’s prefall collection stood out for the very items that made it blend it: classic styles with of-the-moment updates.

Sticking with a nipped waist and accentuating it with flared skirts and voluminous sleeves, the proportions were as sophisticated as they were flattering.

Balloon-leg pants were cropped at the ankle and hung off a wide waistband. A striped blouse turned professional dressing on its head with its leg o’ mutton sleeves.

Other looks were decorated with folk motifs, like a navy prairie dress banded with ribbons of trims. Worn open at the neck and with a pair of sandals, the look was less pioneer woman and more Greek-isle honeymooner.

The Sea girl, though, is no stranger to a bit of fun, and with pom poms and ruffles on lace tops with billowy sleeves and statement shoulders, she definitely got it.

New Year’s dressing made deluxe by Sachin & Babi

Posted by

ApparelMagic client Sachin & Babi went on a darkly elegant outing for their prefall collection. Their many fans are set to be full on Gatsby girls with chic black head wraps and earrings that dangled nearly to the shoulders.

A post shared by Sachin & Babi (@sachinandbabi) on

For the before-dinner hours, A few dresses covered in Florida-style flora were prim and proper, but still unquestionably glam.

With hints of the twenties, some modest but glamorous tea-length dresses were fringed in swaying metallic fringe.

More sober looks still held their own in the sparkle department, like a black and white dress with elegant teardrop bead trims, or all black looks with rhinestones in a delicate honeycomb pattern.

Other eveningwear included stunners like a bell-sleeved magenta gown and an electric blue one with a statement-sized bow. The Sachin & Babi woman is always in the spotlight, and these are the dresses that keep her there.

Jonathan Simkhai is Fashion’s Renaissance Man

Posted by

For his Pre-Fall 2018 lookbook, über-romantic Jonathan Simkhai went back to the source material and put out a collection deeply engaged with fashion history. While he might be known for his flamboyant uses of denim and silky lingeries, Simkhai is never confined with referencing just the recent past. Here, he went full-on renaissance with clothes that merged his brand’s glam girls with the aristocratic muses of the sixteenth century.

A post shared by @_ashslayblog_ on

Suiting was of the seventies double-breasted variety, but updated with cutouts and slashing not seen this masterful since maybe the Holbein the Younger back in 1540. The slashing, going down pantlegs, was inventively stapled together for a modern take on the decadent look.

Other highlights included a slip dress in an inky blue picked up the light like an oil painting. An ultra-covetable robe coat in rusty satin had sleeves ingeniously tucked into decadent folds like it was just ripped from a Michelangelo.

Simkhai’s jeans were not totally absent however—here he just did it with a nod to the past, like a stand-out denim jacket with puff sleeves. Renaissance man indeed.

ApparelMagic clients wear white at New York Bridal Fashion Week

Posted by

New York Bridal Fashion Week designers, including ApparelMagic clients, showed that wedding gowns don’t have to be simple white strapless dresses anymore. In fact, sometimes they don’t have to be white, or even dresses.

Sachin & Babi tried out a range of silhouette options, from classic ballgowns to a white silk track jacket with flared pants. The real excitement, however, was a sequined T-shirt thrown over a simple tulle skirt. Unpretentious and nowhere near fussy, it is the perfect combination for the modern bride.

The eveningwear extraordinaires at Badgley Mischka know how to do a mermaid dress like no one else. They played with this shape in nearly every permutation, ranging from bias-cut shifts from the golden age of Hollywood to versions with long lace trains dripping with embroidery.

A post shared by Naeem Khan (@naeemkhannyc) on

Naeem Khan, undoubtably a maximalist at heart, isn’t afraid of anything. With a luxurious variety of silhouettes on display, any bride who finds traditions stuffy can find a beaded jumpsuit, a marabou feather hem, or gowns in blush and pale pink that will suit her fancy.
