Tag Archives: Alice + Olivia

Due to the pandemic, New York Fashion Week was an extremely scaled down affair this season, with only one or two live shows or presentations per day when there would normally be upwards of 10. It certainly felt like another loss in a year full of losses. But the few guests who did attend soldiered on in style.

Most of the fashion crowd has adapted to the new normal by embracing masks, treating them as a key element of an outfit by mixing and matching prints and colors. Some masks were distinct political statements, like Jason Wu’s, emblazoned with the words “Distance Yourself From Hate.” Some were more whimsical, like the Alice + Olivia masks printed with 1960s ladies. Also on the scene was a mirrored face mask and even a “Covidisor” plastic helmet. Over the top, perhaps, but that’s fashion for ya.
