NYFW 2025- Christian Siriano & Alice + Olivia

I’ve known about Christian Siriano ever since he was in Project Runway. That show was one of my inspiration to study fashion in college.

In this collection, I picked these pieces because  of the dramatic silhouettes. Look at the architectural elements he put into these garments. I love the tailoring; he is giving a three-dimensional  architectural quality. The form looks proportioned, I love the geometric shapes making these garments masterpieces- I can visually see these coming down the red carpet.

In the Alice + Olivia collection – you can envision romance. An inspiration shown throughout the garments was that of William Shakespeare. The first piece from the left showcases a ball gown skirt with brocade print and the front of the dress exhibits a v neckline. I love that the front looks simple but once turned, the back is exposed held by bow tie ribbons. The middle garment is a mini dress covered by a blazer with puff shoulders, adorn in embellishment, I love the touch of ribbon and the peekaboo lace on the wrists making it look romantic. And my last pick to the right is the same style as the first one with a minor change, a painting for the print. Overall, the collection is fantasy meets modern.

Paris Haute Couture Spring 2025- Miss Sohee

This year marks the debut to Miss Sohee showcasing her collection at Paris.

As I explored more about this brand, I found out the designer’s name is Sohee Park. She is South Korean designer based in London. After she graduated from college in 2020, she launched her brand. Due to the pandemic, she was unable to showcase her collection down the runway. Instead, she released several photographs on Instragram which went viral. She then made her grand debut in 2022.

Since then, she has styled famous celebrities like, Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande, and Cardi B just to name a few.

Miss sohee is the next fashion designer to watch for.

In this collection – the use of intricate handmade embroidery is exquisite. I noticed a use of florals and birds. Take a look at Korean Minhwa – it is Korean folk painting which pay an homage to her heritage and can be seen in the garments.

The ensemble I chose above are romantic. Each garment has fabric that goes perfectly on the silhouettes. The sensuality and glamor can be seen. Miss Sohee is a name to remember she is just beginning her legacy. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next.
