Return Evangelista
New York Fashion Week kicked off with a Fendi fashion show on September 9. The show was dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the legendary Baguette bag. The protagonist of the occasion, or rather their miniature copy, was adorned with hats, clothes and accessories, in which models led by Bella Hadid and Kate Moss’s daughter Lila were defiled. Among the guests of the show was Sarah Jessica Parker, whose character – Carrie Bradshaw – wore a purple Baguette, first on Sex and the City and then on Just Like That.
The collection is brilliant, invaluable and full of millions of details. Kim Jones (Fendi) and Marc Jacobs participated in the creation and you can see them both. From Kim – logomania and silhouettes, from Mark – volume (see fur hats and robes), the complexity of textures and skyscraper platforms, ”
stylist Aleko Nadiryan commented on the show on the Telegram channel.
Stylist Alexander Rogov expressed another opinion on his channel: “The show was received with enthusiasm by everyone, but for me it was purely commercial and marketing moves…”
Linda Evangelista was the last to step onto the podium, giving everyone in the Hammerstein Ballroom a standing ovation. The fact is that this show was his first in 15 years – the last show he attended was in 2007 (Christian Dior).
Since 2016, the supermodel has been hiding from the cameras due to a cosmetic procedure called cryolipolysis (a non-surgical method of removing localized fat deposits) that “crippled” her, and this year she has decided to step out of the shadows. She posed for the cover of People in February and admitted she was “tired of being embarrassed” in an interview. This was followed by an advertising campaign for Fendi, the cover of British Vogue, and finally Fashion Week.
Bare breasts of US Vice President Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter
One of the most talked about models at New York Fashion Week was Ella Emhoff, the stepdaughter of US Vice President Kamala Harris. A funny thing happened to the model on the Prabal Gurung show: she accidentally exposed her chest during the fashion show.
Not by chance but on purpose, Bella Hadid showed her bust at the Proenza Schouler fashion show and Emily Ratajkowski at the Tory Burch fashion show.
Maximum inclusivity at the Tommy Hilfiger show
On September 11, Tommy Hilfiger presented his new spring-summer collection inspired by the preppy style. Plus-size model Ashley Graham, vitiligo model Winnie Harlow, trans model Hari Nef and 75-year-old writer Bob Colacello attended the show.
“NYFW’s most inclusive show was the Tommy Hilfiger show. Models of all genders, all ages, all races and all sizes were presented on the podium… I would like to talk especially about plus-size male models. I was thinking about this the other day and saw it! The collection and style are weak but I think the cast is great!”
— stylist Alexander Rogov shared his opinion.

Imagine all this (new products from world brands) in Kirkorov, Volochkova, Semenovich, Anya Asti, Gluk’oZe, Olga Karput, Ilona Stolye, Natasha Maksimova, etc. And all this in Tverskaya or Zaryadye … Well, everyone would spit. Vogue is great! The vibe is great! At our Vogue events (but I’ve never been to them) everything is usually sour-faced and poignant.”
— said stylist Alexander Rogov.
Men wearing lace boxers at the Tom Ford show
Fashion Week in New York has ended as glamorously as it started. The closing show was traditionally the Tom Ford show, which is not as much remembered for its male counterparts as for the runway appearances of the female models. In particular, one of the models took the podium with a leather jacket, lace boxer shorts and boots that she wore over her bare body.
“Glitter, sex and zero vibration. Sequins, low, lace (for women and men) combined with leather and a platform – the whole show is like a big party 20 years ago”
