Dennis Basso Spring/Summer 2017

Light as air is how we felt watching the Dennis Basso Spring/Summer 2017 line unfold. Chiffon, lace and silk organza breezed through the catwalk in a delicate fashion. The veteran designer even managed to make leather look weightless. Not straying from what he knows best, Basso found a way to make fur blend in seamlessly. Exquisite beading and luminescent sheen created more depth to a few of the pieces. A mix of gowns, above the knee dresses, and vests were…

Assembly x Racquel Allegra Spring/Summer 2017

Switching from the runway and onto the hardwood, Assembly New York and Raquel Allegra turned fashion into a sport.

Jeremy Scott Spring/Summer 2017

Welcome to Slime City! Jeremy Scott's Spring/Summer line was an ode to the late 80's flick, making us feel a bit nostalgic. Fusing S&M styles and 80's punk culture, the show opened up with graphic pieces saying "New York", "X-Rated" and "Hot Hot Hot". Dog collars, chains, garter belts and leather bondage inspired pieces gave the collection an erotic edge without being too overt. Scott made fashion fun as always with colorful graphic prints, mixing materials and playing with dimensions…
