The perfect depiction of rugged, Gilded Age Men’s “The Speed” collection mixed a unique palette of clean and sporty looks. The result? That man who seems to nail style on the head while still looking like he doesn’t give a *^$%! The rebellious nature of the collection was represented in lots of black, grays, olives, and deep indigo sweaters and tees while the overly dyed denims and saturated burgundy jeans paired with scarves and leather relays that this guy is conscious of style. What’s more? The brand is socially conscious, devoted to organic, handcrafted and artisan approaches!

The rain held out, the sun was shining, and Fashion Pulse Daily was already in a mad fashion week frenzy to cover as many shows, presentations, and events as possible! We’ve got some reviews of what we saw to get your fashion week palette ready for a looong week ahead!
1) GILDED AGE
Inspired by picnic tables – the collection was as fun and Americana as it gets– from Cape Cod to the new summer “white”; juicy watermelons, denim, and of course canvas shoes were found on the lovely lads and ladies of the Gilded Age. Bravo Gilded Age; thoroughly understanding the art of casual dressing-put together separates that looked absolutely perfect.
2) Jenny Kayne
What can I say that I haven’t said already about Jenni Kayne? Amazing cuts, never fails to impress! I was able to speak to the cordial Miss Jenni for a moment about her collection, who shared that there inspiration was a bit of 80s, 90s, with a bit of an edge; I’m not a sequins girl by any means, but fell in love with her sparkly numbers and incredible cuts.
3) Rachel Antonoff
What a terrific turn out for the amazing Ms. Antonoff; the staging of the show was set in an old theatre, complete with quirky live movement from ballerinas of sorts to a nerdy accordian girl. Loved every moment of it, and can confirm that Rachel Antonoff is the next big thing – check out her sweet girly frocks with a bit of a snap to them.
4) RACHEL Rachel Roy
I’m biased — I absolutely adore Rachel Roy! The press showing of the RACHEL Rachel Roy line for Macy’s let us press members indulge in the entire new collection, and you better believe I walked out of there with a shopping bag under my arm! Affordable, stylish, well-made, beautiful clothes; one of the best diffusion/collaboration lines to date.
