Prabal Gurung Fall 2015

My favourite show of NYFW. A designer I've never heard of before, it's always the unexpected that create the greatest.

New York fashion week has been a little disappointing in my opinion. The male designers were once again on top, and Parang Gurung was by far the most exciting collection of the week way back at the beginning on Monday. The inspiration? New York. Seems cliche but coming from Nepal (or anywhere), NYC is a big beautiful city and some of the world's best designers are born and bred there.

Alike Christopher Kane, Prabel's designs are very sophisticated but he adds a touch of playfulness with an asymmetric hem or faux fur trim. The use of a heavy coat over a delicate dress is a perfect formula, as is a heavily sequinned material for a formal dress. They've been done before but Gurung's collection really does pull together quite beautifully.  I would wear all of the looks from the show, and these are some of my favourite:
