Anniesa Hasibuan
This year I was fortunate enough to get invited to see Anniesa Hasibuan during New York Fashion week. I must say it was a very dramatic and captivating exposition. For starters, I am very fond of the designer after learning more about her. She comes from having zero educational background in fashion yet has made it as an amazing designer all on her own from scratch. She started designing for herself and turned her hobby into a profession which is very admirable and shows true passion. She is very relatable for I always longed to work in the fashion industry, but had little to no experience. It was very hard breaking into the industry, but I took fate into my own hands and start my own fashion blog which is my hobby and passion as well.
The collection was thrilling, the music kept me on my toes and the designs were breathtaking. She used different fabrics like tulle, velour, and leather. The full exaggerated skirts made such an impact. There were embellishments, pearls, bead work, ruffles, studs, honeycomb looking fabrics that really caught everyone’s attention. The designs were very unique and celebrated a women’s independence to dress as she pleases.
Verdad
Verdad is a new Womenswear brand who debuted its Fall/Winter 2017 collection at New York Fashion Week. The designs were very sophisticated and chic for the urban metropolitan lady who is a frequent visitor of NYC and LA. The designer Louis Verdad stated himself that he was inspired by the women of NYC and LA. I found the designs to be very wearable and perfect for everyday working women who want to be stylish, confident yet playful. I very much enjoyed seeing the Verdad collection, and can definitely see myself wearing these pieces to work.
Leanne Marshall
Leanne Marshall showcased a very feminine, and pretty collection. Leanne Marshall is well known for being on Project Runway season 5, and has dressed several celebrities in the past. Known for her bridal designs, she designs the most flattering silhouettes for the female body. I am obsessed with the high slit showing off the entire leg. I love the soft colors, and the pop of vibrant red she infused in the Fall/Winter 2017 collection. These designs will no doubt make you feel beautiful on the inside and out. I can see how Leanne Marshall is a go-to for brides who need the perfect dress on that special day. To see her bridal line check out her website here: Bridal Collection.
