Emerging fashion designer Katty Xiomara brought a modern take on the 50s housewife to the runway at Nolcha Fashion Week. Her preppy styles are both wearable and relatable to the all-American woman while the conservative elements of the collection made it stand out among the Spring 2015 collections.

South African designer David Tlale really made a statement when his Spring 2015 collection hit the runway at Lincoln Center. The uniquely beautiful collection expressed a woman’s strength through elegant femininity. While half of the collection was made up of breathtaking African-inspired patterns, the second half showed the female spirit through flowing pink and orange designs.

After seeing Katya Leonovich’s SS14 collection last September, I loved getting the chance to see her SS15 collection today at Pier 59 Studios. Her latest spring line was a great mix of funky fresh styles. I particularly loved that her signature uses of purple (one of my favorite colors) translated seamlessly into this collection.

September 4, 2014 is not only my birthday and Beyonce’s birthday, it’s also the first day of New York Fashion Week. The stars have aligned and brought together three momentous occasions on one special day and I can’t wait to see what happens. Though my due date was originally in mid-August, I have a theory that I was born two weeks late because I didn’t want to come out until they started showing the spring collections.
As for sharing a birthday with Beyonce, it’s an honor that I take very seriously. Us Virgos are known to be efficient perfectionists. I only hope that I can someday reach the same level of perfection as Beyonce. For now, it’s time to take on another amazing New York Fashion Week at Lincoln Center.
