Although the start time was delayed by the highly anticipated Project Runway show, Yigal Azrouel was a designer worth waiting for. Organic lines met structure on the catwalk, accented by exposed zippers, bold shoulders, sheer fabric and rhinestones. Composed of a wide yet cohesive pallete, the collection was a visual treat. Earth tones balanced graphic-printed wool, while valiant colors and dynamic black accentuated the amazing angular cuts. Sexy and modern LBD’s were contrasted by sweater-looks with echoing volumes of fabric draped around the neck. Check out the entire collection here.

Inspired by Nicola Sassoon’s pixelated landscapes, Risto brought distinctive patterns to life on the runway. Rainbow-stained designs inaugurated the collection, succeeded by aquamarine-streaked black garments. Rust and turquoise brush-stroked fabrics followed suit, lightening into woolen shades of gray before returning back to the stark contrast between black and confident ruby. Fitted leggings, embellished wool capes and sheer blouses dominated the collection. See more here.

Frank Tell redefines coherence at Milk Studios, his choice of venue this season. Threading his pieces together with sharp angles, dramatically textured collars and woolen tassels, Tell’s models all don a single black elephant-tusk pierced through the left ear, encapsulating the essence of a very characteristic style. Each garment echoes the last, impressively limited to the tones of white, black, beige, gray and powder blue. Dynamic pointed platform wedges complete each look, making every girl (or boy) present green with envy.
