Kos' NYFW Fall 13 Diary #1: Wildfox Couture

Finale at Wildfox Couture

NY Fashion week (NYFW) has started, the first show I had the opportunity to attend was the presentation for Wildfox Couture Fall 2013 at the coveted venue Capitale. 

Below is a snap of the presentation, I will get to that in few:

  

The Wildfox Couture brand has been getting a lot of buzz the past few years with thier celebrity following and boho designs. Most recently, Beyonce wore their eye-wear brand Wildfox Sun. She wore the eyeglasses in the famous picture that was on her tumblr page last week in the height of the lip synching controversy. She also wore Wildfox in music videos, and at the coachella music festival.

The Fall 13 presentation was from 8pm-11pm, I was wondering why the event was so long.. But when I got there with my friend Candy, I realized the first part was a reception with drinks plus the ultimate comfort food of gourmet fries and grilled cheese! I'm a sucker for grilled cheese!  The DJ was amazing putting on the 80's hits along with sounds from Foster The People, which inspired a few attendee's to dance. The scene was mixed: bloggers, publicist, editors, and celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens and Ashelee Simpson all coming together to see the beloved Wildfox Couture put on one of the best presentations I've seen in a very long time.

 

Second half of the event was in the main room at Capitale:

The models actually entered from the balcony dancing to Frank Sinatra wearing sequin maxi skirts, short bob cuts, feather bowas incorporating Wildfox's signature designs and breezy t shirt body styles.

The skeleton sequin sweatshirt is a must have, one of the huge trends for fall 13 is "The Sweatshirt" it is great to see a t shirt brand like Wildfox make it their own by incorporating their signature skeleton design that has been seen on dresses and t shirts in the past.

Loved the Great Gatsby hint in the design below, it's just enough :)

I have a feeling that I will be I am having dreams about the the sequin maxi skirt! Anyone that knows me know I love maxi skirts! They're my staple! 

At the end of the night each guest got an amazing gift bag full of goodies, thank you Wildfox:

Canvas bag by Wildfox Couture, Tigi haircare, Wildfox Sun lookbook, Lip gloss by Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, Custom deck of card by Wildfox Couture.

 What a great way to start NYFW! Stoaked about Duckie Brown tomorrow!
