Today marked the tenth anniversary of 9/11, a day nobody in America will ever forget. While Mercedes-Benz fashion Week new York consumes the style world best now, the aura at the shows today was different. everybody going to kept in mind what this excellent city as well as country dealt with ten years back today, as well as DKNY spring 2012 kept in mind this day in a special way. The scene of the show was in a storage facility on 26th street, full of dark floors as well as subjected brick walls. The seats all contained the typical press set on the seat, however Donna Karan made sure to address the importance of the day with an essential message on the front page.
When the lights went down, the designs went into from the street into the space, with a nyc taxi as their backdrop. The music filled the space with tunes like “American Woman”, which was so completely fitting not only for the symbolism of the day however likewise to match the collection itself. So let’s get to the show, shall we?
Prints, bright colors, as well as matching accessories were the major themes of the collection. From floral red as well as blue patterns to bright Barbie pinks, the collection fits spring ever so perfectly. The purses not only coincided with different products however likewise had full on similar matching patterns as well as colors. While matchy-matchy does not always work, there was a fun quirk in the method DKNY pulled this off which made it young as well as fresh. The garments itself was smooth as well as pulled-together, with numerous pants paired with blazers as well as floppy hats galore. I can’t envision anybody leaving this show not wanting for spring to show up while likewise remembering the excellent loss all of us felt ten years back together with a excellent sense of pride as well as like for this city as well as country.
