Mimi Attends New York Fashion Week

Mimi Attends New York Fashion Week

Fashion week whizzed by as it tends to do, but I managed to have a blast (as usual)!

After some time to mull it over, I have to say some of my favorite collections were Brandon Maxwell with his modern, sexy retro silhouette that truly celebrates the shape of a woman; Marchesa which was ethereal, magical and reminiscent of childhood days wearing Disney Cinderella gowns when you were 10! As a Mom of a young girl teenager, Tommy Hilfiger had lots to love this year with his design collaboration with GiGi Hadid. It had a young hip mood that's both fashionable and affordable : )

I’m loving this season’s emerging trends. From ultra feminine florals and ruffles which are in absolute sync with my bow and wonderland collections to the urban cool athleisure looks which speak to my signature minimal piece collection. I’m in heaven.

I would have to say the most memorable event for me was Tommy Hilfiger’s show with Gigi Hadid. The outdoor festival was a community of on lookers mixed with celebrities from Taylor Swift, William I Am to the Karshadians ...80's music buzzing in the air it felt like the last summer carnival block party at the South street seaport!

It was a long fun week of running around, so I made sure to keep my survival essentials with me at all times: a manuel mist hand blower fan for the heat and humidity, my Tom Ford Sunglasses, a can of coke zero and a power bar! I’m a huge chocolate lover, so after visiting my friend Selima Salaun’s optique shop, I discovered that Mirabelle has an amazing chocolate enclave oasis in the back of their sweet shop!
