NY MFW FW17 HIGHLIGHTS | MAIDEN NOIR

Swanky paisleys, tuxedo stripes, velvet pullover jumpers and wintery white fur trims led the MAIDEN NOIR collection with a delicate recall of a 1950s gent crossing a university campus on a crisp and photographic fall day, books in hand, imagination and hope echoing about the youthful campus land; leaves slowly detaching themselves from their formerly knit tied branches. Cropped trousers, jagged velvets, collective stripes, utility pocket-shares with traditional winter hues and pops of warmth with marigold, orange melon and carnation pink tell of the mystery boy every girl wishes to know, the undercover creative intellectual.
