New York Fashion Week Day 1: Prabal Gurung Showcases Sculptural Silhouettes On The Runway

New York Fashion Week started on 9th February and it will go on till 14th of this morning. The fashion extravaganza will see brands like Helmut Lang, Thom Browne, Tommy Hilfiger, Jason Wu and Altuzarra showcasing their exquisite designs on the runway.

On the first day, one of the collections that stood out was that of Prabal Gurung.

Prabal Guriung’s innovative collection

The Nepalese fashion designer said that the collection represents grief, inspired by a loss back in his home country. The process of bringing this collection was close to his heart as it was healing and cathartic for him. The cosy fabric of the collection was in stark contrast to the sculptural silhouettes.

He also had numerous of those signature feminine silhouettes which have given him his distinction as a fashion designer. The big, sherpa-style coats and big trousers on some models were also balanced out by flowy gowns and beautiful jewellery. The coloures red, black and white dominated the runway.
