Like all good things, New York Fashion Week has come to an end. I enjoyed previewing the latest collections and being introduced to some new-to-me designers (you can catch up with my NYFW recaps here and here).
Last Wednesday, I previewed the fall/winter 2016 collection from Jasmine Chong. The collection marries femininity and functionality, while embracing earth tones. It was a traditional runway show composed of flowy dresses, and velvet pieces in navy, neutral, and olive shades. A certain silk velvet runway gown in slate was a show-stopper for me. I loved the texture and the way it moved on the runway.
If gowns aren’t quite your thing (I hear ya. I would have no place to wear one, either), Jasmine Chong’s line included a number of separate pieces that I could see adding to my closet. The archer jacket in midnight, the silk velvet Catherine pant in bark, and the Land & Sea winged shirt with washed silk and silk organza are pieces that would be on major repeat for me.
I appreciated the neutral tones and mix of textures that are evident throughout this collection. Here are a few of my favorite looks:
Which is your favorite look from the collection?
I love so many of these looks – perfectly simple and chic!

Totally, Kate! I loved this collection, and that runway gown was such a stunner. Thanks for inviting me to attend the show with you!
So beautiful. I love that strapless black (or brown?) gown, actually, though I definitely don’t have anywhere to wear it eitehr!
That velvet runway gown is my favorite piece! I’m glad you enjoyed the recap, Whitney.
Interesting how plain materials are used in such beautiful ways, absolutely no prints! SO cool! Love the sheer sleeves. Thank you for the post 🙂
