DKNY Catwalk Fashion Show New York FW2015

Trooper Maartje Verhoef opened the DKNY show dressed in a sporty/casual look. Nude skirt, blue V neck sweater, white turtle neck underneath, double breasted grey overcoat. A sportive, urban ensemble which set the mood for what was about to follow. Modern looking, structured looks representing Donna Karan’s ‘New York uniform’. Suits and dresses, bomber jackets and sweaters. Asymmetric skirts, extra long sleeves. Neoprene and tweed in the mix with wool and leather. Some pleated sheerness and a touch of tulle to go. Boxy silhouettes and bright pops of color. A brooch, a snake skin sleeve, some glitter on the collar of a camel coat and cut outs of colorful beads softened the edginess of the collection. A vibrant collection conveying all aspects of the Big Apple life. ‘What is New York?’, Donna asked her audience. And though just a tiny part, this might be it.
