DKNY Fall/Winter 2014 at New York Fashion Week

WTFSG-dkny-fall-winter-nyfw-2014-1

All work and no play makes a dull New Yorker and this DKNY Fall 2014 show has proven the vamps and tramps of the Big Apple are out to play. Today’s show promises 55 looks featuring authentic New Yorkers stomping through the runway grounds – inspired by familiar faces like rapper Angel Haze, but there was something quite dark and brooding that read more underground than Eight Mile.

It was the bleak puffer coats and bomber jackets – an essential Karan must-have. But it was also a slew of houndstooth print tops worn on the everyday-man’s champion, flowing trousers, not to mention the striped shearlings that teases the heck out of an industrial wasteland backdrop.

It was by no means something unforeseen from DKNY, in the vein of one of the longest standing secondary labels from New York. There was a stone-cold revival of sorts – more edgy than the 90s – in the vinyl skirts and flat-form sneakers.

Perhaps in a quest for a biopic of the label’s eye on the city, this collection profiles a degree of realism. By default, this playground borrows credibility from its subjects – thus toying the possibility that we just might be the oddballs peeping at these urban staples.
