Hanneli in her joyous green neon ACNE coat felt like the perfect streetstyle photo to kick off New York Fashion Week. I spotted her outside of Creatures of the Wind, which I attended and will be posting about tomorrow. Stay tuned!
It’s rare for a puffy coat to catch my eye, so count this as a first. I was intrigued by Sana’s serene color palette of robin’s egg blue and periwinkle. The cool aqua tones are a welcome change from the black coats currently swarming Chicago’s streets.
Speaking of winter, how lovely was the dusting of large snowflakes this afternoon? I love when it looks like I live inside a snow globe, it makes the cold weather so much more romantic…
My love affair with flared coats began the first time I saw an Alaïa coat in person. It’s the most elegant silhouette and universally flattering. This semi-sheer flared mesh coat by Junya Watanabe was made with an athletic mesh fabric designed by PUMA. Utilitarian fashion at its finest, this stylish piece avoids the gimmicky feel that can sometimes befall unlikely partnerships by marrying the best of both brands.
Well done, Junya.
