Marcel Ostertag showed his fall/winter 2016 collection at New York Fashion Week on February 11, 2016 at the Skylight Clarkson. The fall 2016 collection, took it’s inspiration from a common weather trait of the autumn season; rain.

The “rain” theme was apparent throughout the show. Marcel Ostertag used the rain theme on his sweaters which featured large raindrops. There were also rain slicker plastic inserts blocked into many of the skirts on the runway. This gave “rain” an entire new imagine; one that is cool, rather than wet. Love that!

Marcel Ostertag used texture and fabric blocking throughout his collection, using fabrics on skirts and dresses which unexpected, and fresh. The mix of texture on many of the skirts added a sophisticated yet playful vibe which was a fresh take on standards skirts; and rain gear.

The color palate, which was mainly light blue, grey, navy, and burgundy, evoked a fall feeling of grey skies, light blue rain water, evening sky navy, and burgundy leaves. The colors were cohesive with the theme, and helped complete the collection. Even the sequins were arranged like rain drops, which danced as the models moved down the runway.

I am in love with the trench coats, everything blue, and the fabulous long burgundy gown pictured above. Which pieces are your favorite from the collection?

The A Detacher fall 2016 collection went down the runway on Thursday, February 11, 2016 and gave everyone something cozy to covet for fall. While temperatures in New York dipped down into the 20’s, the models on the A Detacher fall 2016 runway donned cozy knit hats, warm sweaters, loose yet fitted jackets, and warm outfits which proved you can be layered up and still be a walking fashion plate. Love that!

A Detacher’s fall 2016 color palette included warm shades of brown, pops of bright pink, occasional red accents, neutrals, and enticing dark green. The patterns were artistic, the sleeves were voluminous, and the belts were drool-worthy. I cannot imagine anyone doing better knits for fall than A Detacher. They were groundbreaking!

Marissa Webb showed her fall 2016 collection at the Skylight Clarkson on February 11, 2016 during New York Fashion Week. As always, her collection was amazing.

One of the best pieces on the runway were Marisaa Webb’s booties! The booties were innovative; featuring an inside layer peeking out from the outside layer of the booties. There was a small lace-up detail on the back of the booties, and the heels were thin, and fabulous. Love them! There was also an equally fabulous pair of knee high boots on the Marissa Webb fall 2016 runway. Look for both of these styles to fly off store shelves!

Marissa Webb used texture, patterns, and discreet florals throughout her collection. The main color story included navy, mustard, light grey, rose, and pumpkin. When paired with light grey, the traditional autumn color palette took on a fashion-forward vibe; making fall look new again.

Every season Marissa Webb reinvents the wheel; and gives the fashion world a fresh outlook on how to dress. I plan on getting my hands on a pair of booties, and the navy/white check coat pictured above. Which pieces are you coveting from the Marissa Webb fall 2016 runway collection?
