#6: Fashion Runway Shows

So I went on newyorkfashionweeklive.com and was able to see a bunch of runway shows! I watched two Spring shows: BCBGMaxAzira and Badgley Mischka. But I'm going to focus on the Badgley Mischka one.
I'm gonna be honest, I have NEVER seen any Badgley Mischka clothing before, only shoes, and I really did like their shoes so I said hey, why not.

The set was black and white with a light blue runway and the garments were beautiful!! The models all sporting the same short voluminous bob hairstyle with minimal  make up with just a pop of blue eyeshadow and red lipstick on some faces.


Spring 2014, had a lot, a lot of dresses; long and short, textured with different fabrics and silhouettes such as tight long gown to an A-line skirt dress.
The color palette started out with white, a dusty sky blue and a darker blue. The last white dress had red detail on it; that was when the red and pink part of the show came into play (with of course more white.) More dresses! Beautiful tight downs with embellishments at the waist and hips. The red was a bright red while the pink more of a salmon color, and white, pure white.



Lots of deep cut backs and flowy silhouettes and soft but intricate detail.




Then came the dusty lavender dresses with abstract floral patterns with hints of that sky blue, salmon, a lighter pink, yellow and grey.

After that, Palazzo pants of the same lavender and grey large floral print with a matching bra top and a grey sequined short cardigan. I LOVED that outfit.

Following that, the silvers and greys came out. Evening gowns with shining embellishments and details. and we were back to the dusty sky blue! That transitioned into the last part of the show which had blues, pinks, whites, greys, all together and these evening gowns reminded me of prom or very luxurious dresses you would wear to a wedding or as the wedding gown itself!




Badgley Mischka's show portrayed a lot of evening gowns and skirts, pastel colors and also had a 60's mood to it with his showing of pillbox hats. I felt like his color palette was very monochromatic: white, light dusty blue, dusty lavender, grey and silver and had that pop of red and salmon to break it; gorgeous!
