Nubia's Nonsense: new york fashion week

Sometimes It Feels So Good To Be Bad.

The Blonds Runway show was a Disney Dream Come True... Or Nightmare.

Almost every New York Fashion Week The Blonds, Phillipe Blond and creative director David Blond have a themed runway show. This year for their Spring/Summer 2019 collection it is Disney's Villains. I had the pleasure of witnessing many of their runways in person though sadly I couldn't attend this year. One thing I've always admired is their insane attention to detail that you can spot anywhere from the fabrics, hair, and nails. I think they have the best nail designs of all the New York Fashion Week runway shows.

Hello Nubians,

I didn't make it out to New York Fashion Week this season for the first time in a long time, but never fear! We have the interwebs full of fun NYFW photography ;-)

One of the coolest, most unique shows I've been seeing a lot of photos of is Thom Browne Spring 2016. It's like a cross of Japanese school girl uniforms and Alice In Wonderland. Usually, most designers who put together a collection of blazers and skirts run the risk of having it come across as boring, but not Thom Browne. First off, lets talk about the hair ... it was sooooo good. There was also gorgeous boater hats by Stephen Jones. The hats and hair are already immediate eye catchers that make the show as a whole more interesting.

About the clothing ... as I said prior it looked like a Japanese school uniform but the fabric, prints, embroidery, and layering makes all the difference. I love the use of pleats in this collection. There was also a bit of gingham and floral patterns. Some of the items are wearable every day and some maybe not so much. The color scheme was black and gray with a dash of pastels too. I love the balance of the collection however and would absolutely rock some of these pieces in a heartbeat.

Thom Browne is known to put on a show. He put together a one room school house at The Chelsea Gallery. There was also black composition notebooks on each chair. You have to love all the details. Magical and a little dark. Absolutely enjoyable to view.

Hello Nubians,

I wanted to share this outfit I wore sometime during NYFW. One of the girls I was working with got the whole social team cake pops which was really sweet! Who doesn't love a good cake pop? plus quite frankly, they're pretty to look at and I probably spend as much time admiring one as I do eating it.

Anyway, back to the outfit... I wanted something chill and relaxing to wear. I pretty much had an ALL SNEAKER policy this season (except for one day when I wore oxfords) I run around way too much and comfort is key. To make up for not wearing any heels I layered a bit, mixed textures and tried to pay attention to detail as much as possible.

Quería compartir este conjunto que use la semana de moda aqui en Nueva York. Una de las chicas que trabajabe con nos trajo a todos cake pops! Que graciosa cierto? ¿Quién no ama un buen estallido de la torta? además, francamente, son muy a la vista y me encantan.

De todos modos, de nuevo a la ropa ... Yo quería algo chevere y relajante para ponerme. En la semana de moda casi todo lo que me puse fue estilo deportivo esta temporada (a excepción de un día, cuando yo llevaba oxfords) corro demasiado y siempre estoy ocupada... pues para mi la comodidad fue clave. Para compensar por no llevar ningún talones Acodé un poco, texturas mixtas y trató de prestar atención al detalle tanto como sea posible.
