Zlata Mangafic at Creatures of the Wind FW2015
Zlata! She has been one of our favorite models since she appeared on the scene a couple of years ago. She left the Creatures of the Wind show wearing a Prada shearling coat edged with brightly colored yellow and red fur, one of several bright furs we’ve seen on the streets recently. The shearling treatment here gives it a cool downtown ’70s edge.
Sasha Luss and Kremi Otashliyska, After Chanel Couture SS2015
Two cute and practical looks on models Sasha Luss and Kremi Otashliyska after the Chanel couture show in Paris. When prepping for Fashion Month, which begins this week and does not end until March 11th, I always look at what the models are wearing. Like us photographers, they are literally running between shows – but looking good doing it.
Soo Joo Park, After Chanel Couture SS2015
Soo Joo definitely seems to be one of Karl Lagerfeld’s favorite models of the moment, and it’s always great to see her after the Chanel show. After the couture show in Paris, she left wearing a swingy Chanel tweed coat, made a little bit more edgy with the addition of leather leggings. Also note! Turtleneck sweater.
Elisabeth Erm at Rochas FW2014
Love this sporty but urban look on model Elisabeth Erm after the Rochas show last winter. Again you can see when the mercury really drops, the fashion set layers a leather jacket underneath a winter coat.
Model Off Duty: Grace Mahary at Rick Owens SS2015
We had a surprise sighting of model Grace Mahary outside the Rick Owens show, which she attended as a guest of the designer. Take a cue from her and go for leather pants in this cold weather. If there was ever a time for them, it’s now!
Wrap It Up: Auguste Abeliunaite at Prabal Gurung SS2015
A belted coat is an elegant way to fend off the cold. Model Auguste Abeliunaite paired a gray tie-waist coat with black leather pants, boots and a big Prada bag after the Prabal Gurung show in New York.
Winter Layers: Anmari Botha at Jason Wu FW2014
As New York winter kicks into high gear, it’s time to review how to conquer the weather with style. Model Anmari Botha layered a black leather jacket under a 3/4 sleeve coat and over a black turtleneck and necklace last year at the Jason Wu show. This is a particularly good idea when it’s cold enough to wear your leather jacket even indoors.
Xiao Wen Ju in Kenzo, After the Show SS2015
Colorful knits can be like visual vitamin C during a long winter and make great holiday gifts. Model Xiao Wen Ju wore a pink, blue and black sweater, scarf and top by Kenzo after walking the show in Paris.
Blue Mood: Irene Kim at Ann Demeulemeester SS2015
The cobalt blue color that Stella McCartney popularized does not seem to be going away anytime soon – in fact it could soon be a welcome pick-me-up during winter. Irene Kim of Irene Is Good wore a cobalt blue fur by Bedni and an Ann Demeulemeester top to the Ann Demeulemeester show in Paris.
Jamie Bochert, Outside Bottega Veneta SS2015
Model and musician Jamie Bochert wore a plaid Prada dress after walking the Bottega Veneta show in Milan. The once-controversial grunge look has now become a timeless classic.
Bandana-Rama: Soo Joo Park, After Chanel SS2015
Model Soo Joo Park left the Chanel show clad in Chanel, including a double C printed bandana-style silk scarf. Bandana motifs have been big both at Chanel and Saint Laurent, and if you don’t have the budget for one of these designs, you can always get in on the trend with just a regular black and white paisley-print bandana, $2.99 at Ricky’s.
Paris Fashion Week Is Over! Models Outside Moncler
The end of Fashion Month is always bittersweet, but everyone celebrated Wednesday in Paris. Models Alexandra Hochguertel, Ysaunny Brito and Agne Konciute gamely held up a sign and then ran down the street.
Silk Scarves Are Back: Sasha Luss After Fendi
Normcore is one thing, but the return of the brightly colored silk scarf might provoke more dejà vu in some of us. This ’90s staple was seen loosely tied on many a fashionable neck at the Milan shows, which is nowhere near the Upper East Side BTW. After the Fendi show, model Sasha Luss paired hers with a trench and cuffed jeans.
Model Off Duty: Molly Bair at Prada SS2015
Another over-the-knee look, this time with knee socks on model Molly Bair right after the Prada show in Milan. Needless to say, it helps if you have legs up to here.
Aymeline Valade Leaving Fendi SS2015
Top model Aymeline Valade said to her friend when she was leaving Fendi: I always have a bike. It’s the easiest way to get around.
