Designers That Caught My Attention:
"Fenton/Fallon"-Dana Lorenz
She refers to her pieces as uptown elegance combined with a hard edge. She gets her inspiration from old ladies in pearls and dusty Chanel jackets.
"Ohne Titel"-Flora Gill & Alexa Adams
I really appreciated the bold use of abstract colors. Their collection will stand out in the sea of NYC's black.
"Pamela Love"- Pamela Love
All of these jewelry pieces are handmade in-house in NYC. Her vision is to create jobs and continue the idea of crafting domestically. Not to mention her pieces have a simple but edgy quality to them.
"Suno"- Erin Beatty & Max Osterweis
Their first collection used vintage textiles that were collected in East Africa over a 13 year period. The idea behind their work is to create high end clothing in an ethical way.
