Being glamorous and being practical; two things that for whatever reason, are diametrically opposed. There are of course exceptions, but when it comes to fashion week, this usually tends to be the case. Maybe instead, taking a different approach to fashion can recall some elements of glamour, like the ease at which something is worn, effortless elegance and sophistication that just seem to emanate from a person. I’d like to tap into that, and I hope that dressing in a way that is, well, me, will eventually get me there.
In fashion, hindsight and foresight are critical to fashion; you’ve got to appreciate and have knowledge of the past so that you can learn from it and modify for the feature. In thinking of the past and refreshing it for the feature, 70s inspiration was heavily laid down at New York Fashion Week this season, executed in a variety of ways, both wearable and unwearable for the average person. Stay tuned as I delve further into this trend, as well as debut some exclusive content on FPD in the coming days. In the meanwhile, please continue to check out the live stream from the shows, and see below for what I wore from Day 5 of New York Fashion Week!
