Photo Journal: NYFW fall 2016 recap

There were so many shows during the fall/winter 2016/2017 runways at New York Fashion Week. I was honored to be invited to attend a small fraction of those runway presentations. Although I try hard to take pictures at each show so that I can share them with you, sometimes I am not in the right spot to get photos. Most of the time my photos are washed out, or blurry. It can be difficult to take pictures from the side!

I always feel lucky when I have a front row seat, or a seat facing the models as they walk down the runway. That is when I am able to get the best photos to share with you.

The single designer articles I shared with you were the ones where I was able to get photos which really capture a good segment of the designer’s collection. Otherwise, I was able to get at least one photo from each show I attended. These photos can give you a snapshot of what I saw on the runway, and what we can expect to see in stores for fall 2016!

Without further adieu, here is my fall 2016 New York Fashion Week recap!

Pamella Roland showed her fall/winter 2016 collection at New York Fashion Week on February 12, 2016 at Pier 59 Studios. I had the opportunity to go backstage before the show and check out the fabulous hairstyles being created by Ted Gibson using L’Oreal Professionnel hair care products. The hairstyles were sleek, sophisticated, and modern. Loved them!

The hairstyles were designed in line with Pamella Roland’s inspiration for her fall 2016 runway collection. In order to achieve this, Ted Gibson, Celebrity Stylist and Owner of Ted Gibson Salon stated: “This season we were inspired by modern architecture and the city of Tokyo. We wanted the models to look as if they had just traveled through Japan.”

I am in love with this timeless yet modern hairstyle; and it looked amazing with Pamella Roland’s fall 2016 collection! I loved being able to see the process from start to finish when I was backstage with L’Oreal Professionnel at Pamella Roland. This is an easy hairstyle to replicate in five easy steps using L’Oreal products.

Here is how you can get the Pamella Roland runway hairstyle at home! All you need to do is buy a fabulous headband, such as this one online here.

STEP 1: Before styling, slip headband on model (or yourself) and let it rest around the neck until use.

STEP 2: Use L’Oreal Professionnel Volume Envy extra mousse to dampen hair and begin to brush hair back into ponytail. Ponytail should sit on the occipital. Use bungee to secure.

STEP 3: Please headband on the head.

STEP 4: Apply L’Oreal Professionnel Volume Envy extra mousse to the tail of the ponytail and wrap hair into a bun. Secure with pins.

STEP 5: Complete style using L’Oreal Professionnel Lumi Controle wax and L’Oreal Professional Infinium 3 hairspray to control and polish hair.

KEY PRODUCTS

  1. L’Oreal Professionnel Volume Envy
  2. L’Oreal Professionnel Lumi Control
  3. L’Oreal Professionnel Infinium 3

That’s it! Five easy steps to fabulous, runway hair! All of these amazing products are available at L’Oreal Professionnel Salons, and online here.

Pamella Roland sent her spring/summer 2016 collection down the New York Fashion Week runway on September 11, 2015 at the Whitney Museum. It was the perfect, modern backdrop for her collection which fused modernistic touches with 1970s and 1960s influences.

I loved the ultra cool backdrop which featured a geometric, colorful light design at the close of the runway show. It captured the vibe of the collection and wrapped up the show; perfectly showcasing the collection. It was pure brilliance.

Pamella Roland’s inspiration seemed to be in line with other New York designers for spring 2016. The collection featured short, a-line hems which are reminiscent of the 1960s. The chokers and geometric lines were also in line with the overall look of the season. I am in love!
