#NYFW: Marc Jacobs and Ralph Lauren

Marc Jacobs
With a chilling and powerful soundtrack (Requiem for a Dream), a black catwalk and a dramatic atmosphere engulfing the fashion front row, Marc Jacobs unveiled his fall 2015 collection. Erin O'Connor opened the show, setting the scene for what was a very dark runway. In homage to Vogue editor, Diana Vreeland, there were plenty of stand out sequin dresses, sheer panels and black leather gloves. Skirts had a 50's feel about them billowing out at the waist and dropping to mid calf and fur was neatly styled along collars and on arms. As for the coats, they were fitted with huge buttons and large lapels. Overall, its clear to state that Marc is most definitely back!

Ralph Lauren
Wintery, warm and cosy, Ralph Lauren gave us a fantastic show wrapping up the end of New York Fashion Week. From the fedora hats to the Navajo style cardigans and jumpers, layers swamped models' complete with the iconic 'Ricky' bags and accessories. Colours were subdued and earthy- grey, brown and beige which eventually gave way to smart black suits, with fur around the lapels. And of course, towards the end of the show, in came the jaw dropping, Hollywood glam dresses. Nobody does new Americana chic like Lauren, and this show was just another stunner.
