NYFW: Monse s/s 2017 Review
Monse is the newest most anticipated designers to hit the runway at New York fashion week this year, upon making their first appearance in the public eye only a year ago. Their spring/summer 2017 collection this year took a twist mixing deconstructed business attire with fun and dazzling eveningwear. A lot of their materials were pinstriped silk blouses and trouser or bright sequined skirts and dresses, they were basic yet stylish and were a big statement on the runway. I liked their modern take on fabrics and designs as the simplicity in the way they looked were breath taking, this year and by the sounds of things they took everybody by surprise.
Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia glammed up the catwalk and took risks with off the shoulder and shape fitting clothing that originally were made to be covering. They said “We figured out that our woman wants to wear a blouse at night, and if it’s a dress, it’s going to be very subtle. So we kept the shirting that we’re about, and the stripes, but we did it for every price range and for every age, too.” After seeing the photographs from the Monse show I took the collection as a fresh new look that hasn't been done before, they explored the cocktail and black-tie dress code on a wider spectrum and it worked.
