Ese Azenabor sent her fall/winter 2015/2016 collection down the New York Fashion Week runway on February 13, 2015. The luxurious collection was inspired by King Henry VII and other affluent monarchs of the era. This influence fused together with modern luxury; creating a luxurious collection which was both cultural and artistic.

Ese Azenabor worked with embroidered jacquard, rich dark hues, pops of bright pink, and brocade. The rich fabrications combined with the current, of-the-moment color palette resulted in a beautiful collection which suits current trends and timeless appeal. Love that!

Concept Korea Fashion Collectives showed their fall/winter 2015/2016 collection at The Pavilion in Lincoln Center on Friday, February 13, 2015. The collection featured both men and women’s clothing for the upcoming cool weather season. Concept Korea included designs by “Beyond Closet, design by Tae Yong,” “Leyii,” and “Resurrection.”

The lines were sleek; offering chic silhouettes for office and daytime wear. The color palette was neutral, and offered pops of purple along with unexpected, understated patterns. All three designers showed collections which are easy to integrate into one’s wardrobe. Loved it!

My favorite looks on the Concept Korea fall 2015 runway were the grey and purple ensembles. What do you think of the collection?

Nike Kids Rock Live! took place at New York Fashion Week on Thursday, February 12, 2015 in the Salon at Lincoln Center. It was a celebrity packed, energetic show filled with kids performing acrobats, dancing, and even acting as DJ. Celebrity children rocked head-to-toe looks by Nike, Nike SB, Jordan, Levi’s, Converse, and Hurley.

The show was produced in partnership with Haddad Brands, the Carmelo Anthony Foundation, and Carmelo Anthony. The Carmelo Anthony Foundation gives back to the community through a variety of outreach programs and donations. The foundation benefits children in under-served communities by focusing on education, recreation, and community outreach. 

The show kicked off with a live performance by fifteen year old singer and songwriter, Carly Rose Sonenclar. She was second runner-up in the second season of the X Factor. She is signed by Syco entertainment and was named one of Seventeen Magazine’s “Most Powerful Women Under 21 Years Old.” The runway and crowd stayed energized by DJ Kai Song, who is ten years old. He started his career when he was only five! He made the show amazing, the crowd wanted to get up and dance as the models walked the catwalk!

Sitting front row, Carmelo and LaLa Anthony, Devon Still, CC and Amber Sabathia, Victor Cruz, Prince Fielder, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Hoda Kotb and more as some of the athletes watched their kids hit the runway in looks from Nike, Levi’s, Converse, Hurley, Nike SB and Jordan. The show closed with an inspiring appearance by Devon Still’s daughter Leah Still who shined on the runway while bringing awareness to the fight against pediatric cancer.
