Jay Godfrey showed his spring/summer 2016 collection at New York Fashion Week on September 12, 2015 at Chelsea Piers. The presentation was simple, modern, minimal, and crisp; a new vibe for the spring 2016 season.

Jay Godfrey showed an all-white collection which featured structured lines, and a modern vibe. On stage with the models, Jay Godfrey placed a pyramid in the center which was reminiscent of playground monkey bars in the 1970s and 1980s; yet in pyramid form instead of dome form. It gave the collection a slightly new wave vibe when combined with the modern lines on the collection.

Jay Godfrey’s spring 2016 collection is an interesting progression from his past few collections. For spring 2105, Jay Godfrey favored texture, patterns, and accessories. When he showed his fall 2015 collection, the lines became more simple, yet there were bright colors and patterns. For spring 2016, Jay Godfrey kept the simple lines, and moved into a more modern place with an all-white color palette.

Jay Godfrey presented his fall /winter 2015 / 2016 collection in the Pavilion at Lincoln Center on Saturday, February 14, 2015. The collection was sophisticated with a youthful, fresh vibe. Jay Godfrey used a combination of berry hues, black with gold, soft florals, plaid, and texture. The fabrications included sheer panels, sequins, fringe, charmeuse, and suede. There was a nod to the 1970’s with flares, culottes, a jumpsuit, and a tie neck blouse.

The pops of Marsala and orchid were a refreshing contrast to the somber colors other designers chose for fall. They offered an uplifting tone to the collection as a whole. I loved the floral prints, the color palette, and the texture. The gold and black plaid was a standout look while the floral dress was a star on the platform.

Jay Godfrey held his spring/summer 2015 presentation at New York Fashion Week on September 4, 2014 at the The Hub in New York. The collection evoked a Western, boho-chic vibe infused with effortless glamour. The subtle colors mixed with neutral, soft metallics and luxurious textured fabrications gave the collection an inviting feeling which was modern and fresh. Although it was a presentation where the models stood on a platform instead of walked a runway, onlookers could easily see the movement in the pieces as models changed poses and allowed us to view the dimension of each piece. The fringe jacket in the bottom photo was a stand-out piece for me; I am also in love with the pants!
