Key Takeaways from the New York Fashion Week

The New York Fashion Week is one of the biggest events that fashion lovers from all over the world eagerly wait for all year long. Because fashion moves 6 months in advance, the collections that appear in the Big Four fashion weeks will set the trends for the coming seasons. Designers, models, editors, celebrities, buyers, and top bloggers attend the event in their finest attire while fashion enthusiasts elsewhere tune in to social media and other online platforms to keep up with the latest proceedings.

But if you missed following the fashion flock due to any reason, you need not worry.

Given the fact that most of the clothing items and fashion accessories flaunted during the event won’t be available in stores for about the next six months, you have plenty of time to recreate the styles and perhaps even give them your own unique spin.

Here are the key takeaways from the New York Fashion Week that will help you up your style game. We include fashion-inspiration from catwalk collections as well as stunning street styles observed throughout the city during the course of the event.

Go Glittery

Jewelled headbands, smoky eye makeup accentuated by tiny stick-on diamonds, and lots of glitter in hairsprays, highlighter, lipstick and everything else in between - runway models and other celebrities at the New York Fashion Week confidently shattered the age-old belief and proved that all that glitters is gold.

So, if you want to really stand out from the crowd, don’t shy away from the use of shiny and sparkly makeup and jewellery items.

There’s a Punk in Everyone

No matter how polished their overall look might have been, attendees at the event weren’t afraid of revealing their rough side. Punk and gothic elements were frequently combined together especially when it came to hairstyle and makeup.

In simple words, the next time you plan to hang out with your friends, consider going for a twisted gothic hairdo. Or use a generous amount of hair gel to create a perfect punk statement. Neon eyeshade with swoops of jet-black eyeliner and blood-red lipstick is a must.

Journey Back In Time

Be it Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler, or Jeremy Scotts, almost all the renowned designers grabbed onto the ‘80s pop styles as references for their spring and summer collections.

Models like Kaia Gerber, and Gigi and Bella Hadid donned bright and cheery suits, hats, coats, jackets, and even shoes adorned with bold, embossed flowers. Feathers, sequins, and the likes were also prominent in most featured designs.
