For some, the short work week following summer’s last holiday is the quiet before the New York Fashion Week storm. Brands, designers, and show-goers are all gearing up to execute NYC’s bustle as conveniently and stylishly as possible. Luckily, there’s a handful of new collections that dropped this week worth wearing to NYFW’s shows and events, and they’re so new that you’re basically guaranteed to be the only one wearing it.
It-girl label Simon Miller calls on a actor friend to be the face of a new romantic capsule of the brand’s signature footwear in extended sizing. E-brand Wildflower teams up with dreamy brand Réalisation Par for a cheeky phone case collab. Chanel’s late Creative Director’s eponymous brand Karl Lagerfeld handpicks a buzzy supermodel to launch its Fall campaign. And footwear favorite Superga drops, not one, but two new sneaker creations in partnership with Something Navy and Alaïa.
So, cut though the NYFW noise and don’t miss these new drops that are actually worth your coin. For your shopping convenience, we’ve compiled our favorites below.
