Some nice pieces. Very colourful. Some straight from Karl Lagerfeld/Chanel, but nice. I want to see how the fringed pieces move.

I am surprised that even though it is new to NYFW, that this show hasn't gotten more coverage. I don't expect it to be covered by style.com, but I thought some of the other fashion media would have covered the show. Several top models (Coco, Freja, Karlie, Sessilee, Tao, Chanel and Behati) walked in the show and it seemed to have great energy. Hopefully, it will get more attention next season.

Coco's gorgeous blue number:
Behati!

I'm not a fan of the circled-prints. I don't think they represent all that much of African clothing. But, I do really enjoy many of the animal-inspired patterns.

Love it! Its great to finally see these collections on a larger stage - I love the variety in shapes and colours.

David's collection is a little more tone-downed than I'm used to, but nonetheless great to see homegrown talent in NY!
