NYFW Designers On The Inspiration For Their Autumn 2018 Collections

'Disco-era glamour and decadence meets eighties power dressing in a subversive dialogue between masculine and feminine.'

'This collection really comes straight from my heart. That's why the title of my show is Beloved. In it I've incorporated all my favourite things—everything I've always loved, and everything I'm currently obsessed with.'

'Sensual femininity informed by the bold curves and polished surfaces of Zaha Hadid's architecture.'— Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs

'Global.'

'Nothing is ever just black and white.'

'Denim and diamonds.'

'Club Monaco has always been about individuals and the idea of non-prescriptive style. This season's collection celebrates that part of the brand's DNA—it's strong but also feels open and effortless.' – Steven Cateron, Club Monaco, Head of Design

'Take heart, O Lala, take heart.'

'ADEAM's Fall 2018 collection is inspired by the 1920's. It draws from the style of 'Modern Girls' in 1920's Tokyo, and the flappers during the Jazz Age in New York.'— Hanako Maeda

'How to write a Dadaist poem.'

'Inner fortitude.'

'A printed floral jacquard with heritage influences feels at once familiar yet, in its neon-tones, distinctly foreign. Flounces, gathers, and abbreviated hemlines give a youthful vibe to otherwise established codes.'

'Celebrating our first ten years in business, our Fall 2018 collection conveys the glamour and excitement of an ultimate royal dinner party. A regal and elegant collection, filled with luxe fabrics and romantic silhouettes, inspired by late 18th century British art that hangs in the Queen's Gallery in London. The collection will recall some of our most notable looks from our first decade, modernised for our customer today.'

'This season, we invite you to immerse yourself in the Laurence & Chico pet kingdom!'

'For Collection 2, our journey starts with canvas, cotton and corduroy....and transitions into workwear, flares and shirts.'— Danita Short, Founder of LAND of distraction
