From Ralph Lauren to Private Policy, New York Fashion Week Spring 2024 has a myriad of trends to offer
1) The Translucent fabric
The sheer fabric has been reintroduced at New York Fashion Week, where designers like Jason Wu shared their sartorial narrative through the transparent clothing. His model ran through the runway in a black, shiny, thin stripe dress when her visible inner garments created the layering fashion.
Sergio Hudson designed the black sheer top with a ruffled collar and donned his model with a black skirt and a thick belt.
On the third day of the event, a Staud model presented a sheer top paired with black shorts, long hair and scrunchies tied on her hand intensified the warmth of the Plaza Hotel, New York.
Custo Barcelona also joined the sheer fabric group when its model flaunted the azure pastel shade in a sheer textile at Canoe Studios on September 10.
2) The rise of pop-up color
When the world is embracing the eye-soothing pastel shade, some designers have infused the pop-up colors in NY Fashion Week.
American actress Bresha Webb showed up in a neon-hued structured dress by Sergio Hudson, while Gizelle Bryant popped up in an orange-tinted strapless body-hugging maxi dress by the same designer.
Philip Lim accentuated the color yellow on the runway with a casual pleated design made from translucent fabric.
Designer Ulla Johnson's ready-to-wear collection is also filled with pop colors, as one of her models posed in a green jumper.
3) The Feminine celebration
New York designers have dug out some classic feminine clothes like corset tops or ballerina dresses from the archive and reintroduced them with modern-day tinctures.
Dion Lee has portrayed the twisted reformation of a corset top in black, which he has accentuated on the cutout portion and the turtle neckline, whereas another outfit comes in a tan-hued corset body suit paired with a matching bottom.
Pat Bo has shared the feminine fad with flowers on a model donned in red two-pieces where the flower replicas are glued on the outfit.
His purple flowery dress again embraces femininity with an intricate pattern design and the flower-replicated top.
The Private Policy designer donned the model in a lilac dress with a deep plunge neckline.
4) The Color Blocking trend
The color-blocking trend gets a fresh look in NYFW, where designers have portrayed several color blocks on their models. Gabriela Hearst is one of them who amalgamated Neppa Chocolate hues in yellow and red color blocks. Helmut Lang has donned his models in yellow turtleneck tops with red and black color blocks.
Sofia Richie reached NYFW 2024 in black and white color block attire, where she draped a black strapless top and paired it with a white skirt, and posed before the lens with a slouch handbag.
Gabbriette Bechtel, who was featured in a Yoon Ambush-inspired movie, attended fashion week in a grey tonal crew neck crop top, which was paired with black pants and a red square-framed spectacle.
5) The plus-size fashion
The definition of fashion is changing. The fascination of the flat belly and the slender legs has faded away as body positivity becomes a serious matter of concern and plus-size people get the opportunity to flaunt their carves.
New York Fashion Week is no exception to following the trend, as several designers have displayed curvy figures to document their creativity.
At the PatBo show, Da'Vine Joy Randolph was spotted in the front row, where this actress wore a white body-hugging sequin dress.
At Studio 525, a model from Sami Miro ran the show in a floral-printed zipper dress, where her curves were flaunted confidently.
At Glasshouse, Ella Halikas appeared in a puffed-shoulder LBD. Rejecting the fashion threshold, Collina Strada adorned the model in a one-shoulder top and pleated dresses.
So, these are the five trends from the New York Fashion Week 2024. The event is still going on, and you can expect to find more trends as designers reveal their creative designs for the Spring-Summer 2024 collection.
