Stand outside any New York Fashion week show in February and you’re likely to hear a handful of editors complaining about their outfits. There’s typically an unexpected snow storm or a dramatic rainy downpour that causes everyone to add some unwanted layers to their pre-planned front row looks. But the official first day of fashion week was even more unexpected than usual, because the weather actually cooperated for once.
An unseasonably warm 60-degree first day of NFYW meant that the standard puffer jackets—or jackets of any kind really—were noticeably absent. Instead, show-goers opted for strapless dresses and crop-tops typically reserved for the September shows. With temperatures remaining in the 50s and 60s for the rest of the week, the attitudes of editors and tastemakers often stressed about the fashion month ahead, are distinctly sunnier as well.
