Marchesa Went Pale


We saw a lot of color at New York Fashion Week. There were dark, romantic colors and bright, summery ones living side by side on the runway, but you didn’t see them at the Marchesa show. 

Instead, the label gave us a sea of creams and golds, with only a splash of red and black here and there. You’d think it would be a little monotonous, but we loved it. The collection looked just that: a collection. The garments flowed easily from one to the next, which is often surprisingly absent from the catwalk. 

And, oh the fabrics! They were rich and luxurious. Add that to the fact that the models entered through a mirrored door with gold edges, and we couldn’t help but feel like we had stepped back in time. The show confirmed, once again, that sheer and wispy fabrics, dainty lace, and twenties-inspired fashion are going to big this fall.
