Since the Son Jung Wan show is always one of the highlights of my New York Fashion Week adventures, what better place to start this season’s fashion week coverage?
I’m always super excited to go to this show and this season was no exception. I certainly didn’t expect to dumb-luck myself into a front row seat, but I saw a fashion week buddy and she insisted I squeeze in with her! (Thanks, Mona.)

The color palette for this collection was a symphony of beautiful shades and interesting combinations. I loved the contrast of the burnt orange against the sky blue, sometimes with a bit of eggplant purple thrown in as well. Very striking! The mustard yellow and pale pink were an unexpectedly delightful combo as well. I also loved the bronze metallic fabric with the blue floral print. Gorgeous!
