Last Saturday night’s balmy New York weather was matched by the equally hot florals showcased by New York Fashion Week Show’s closing designer, L. Catherine London. Just south of Hudson Yards L. Catherine London’s 2020 Spring/Summer collection turned up the heat with the bright reds, pinks and oranges splashed throughout her flower motifs apparent on almost every piece. It marks a drastic change from L. Catherine London’s previous NYFW collection which was entirely monochrome, in tribute to and collaboration with supporting women with cancer.
In contrast the explosion of warm hues and summer brights celebrates ‘joyfulness and fulfilment’, in line with the heart of the brand’s values: celebrating every single minute of life. L. Catherine London draws on her deep cultural heritage evidenced in her collection of wool coats and skirts with traditional Polish embroidery. The collection then developed into a series of long silk dresses awash with a multitude of colour, layered ruffles and all-over vibrancy.
Her highly tailored pieces are feminine and sophisticated, the physical embodiment of the powerful and confident woman L. Catherine designs for. This was also reflected in her choice of models, which included Ukranian TV and Radio presenter Anna Butkevich; American professional wrestler Danielle Moinet; and Ambassador of the brand British-Indian Bollywood actress Amanda Rosario – all of whom are known for their confident style and support of women’s rights worldwide.
