New York Fashion Week - Day 4

I actually had a day off Saturday from shows, but I was still following everything on social media!

My favourites from Day 4 of fashion week are below!

Christian Siriano
Every since Project Runway he has always been a favourite and he is actually one of the only project runway winners, that I know of, who has gone on to have a successful line.  His focus is usually on formal wear.  And this season he showed plus size models in the collection as he designs a line for Lane Bryant.  The collection had a bit of a 50s, South of France vibe and the use of colour was great.  He is also offer 4 of his designs as part of see now buy now on Amazon.com.

I think I was drawn to this collection because of the amazing location they used.  But then looking through the collection the clothes are so lovely.  Beautifully structured pieces that have texture from the ruffles and fullness.  The brand is based in LA, but it has a more East coast sophistication to it, very polished but easy.

Generally not a big fan of Jill Stuart, her stuff seems to gear older, and for me I have always associated her with more classic pieces, and luxury basics.  But for SS17 there is definitely a younger feeling to the collection, but I can still see 40+ women wearing it.  I love the pairing of the leggings with the dresses, and the colour combinations.  The dresses had really great silhouettes, a bit of a ballerina 80s feeling to me.  The shoes were also great and well styled with the looks.  There were also a lot of different floral prints used throughout the collection.  Some of them were a bit drab, but I love this print the image below.
