Francesca Liberatore fall/winter 2017/2018 collection New York Fashion Week, February 11, 2017, Skylight Clarkson in New York. These photos were taken from my seat.

Francesca Liberatore has outdone herself this season! Every season I look forward to viewing Francesca Liberatore’s collection at New York Fashion  Week. It is always inspired and fresh; yet completely wearable. For fall 2017, her collection has gone a step further. She has taken her collection and made it more luxurious for fall. I am in love!

For the fall/winter 2017/2018 season, Francesca Liberatore took her inspiration from Hyde Park. Not just Hyde Park, but two distinctly different Hyde Parks. One in London in the 1990s with a nod to iconic music group Oasis, and one in New York which is home to the library and residence of Franklin D Roosevelt. Love this!

The collection was filled with powerful stripes in shades of rich blood orange, brick red, magenta, lime, grey, and black which “harken a progress parade on the world’s stage.” There were also shades of champagne, ivory, and pewter. Liberatore used beautiful fabrications which includes velvet and embroidery. Her collection took inspiration from the powerful and popular; how their words can effect society, and how society can shape or destroy them. A nod to current affairs.

The navy and champagne ensemble pictured above was my favorite look from the runway. I felt like it not only embodied her show’s vibe, it had a romantic air about it which I love.
