NYFW Winter '24 - Day1 - Illustrated Runway Report

There’s always an extra something special in the air in NYC during fashion week.

New York Fashion Week February 2024 kicked off with beautiful weather, comparable to a mid-spring day. (Though a few days later into the shows NY saw snow.) I attended the Global Fashion Collective Showcase’s Day 1 Show 1 inside the Chelsea Industrial building, which is located just a few avenues west of The Fashion Institute of Technology, and a few blocks up from the Starrett-Lehigh Building in Chelsea.

The design showcase included the Fall/Winter ‘24 Collections for 4 different exciting brands: Get Some Sleep, Fair Enough, Unusual, and Stef Mouchie.

You can check out some runway photos, clips, and of course my illustrations from those collections below!

 
 

Get Some Sleep

The show opened with a tiered skirt and oversized jacket look that featured a graphic of the planet earth, reminding us of our commonality. The typography laden styles that followed each carried messages that spoke with the mood of our times. Blues, reds, greens, yellows, and oranges were mixed among the greys in this very wearble streetwear collection.

Fair Enough

The intricately constructed pieces in this collection reimagined the the traditional human form and transformed it with unconventional shapes and fabrics. Neutrals and bold primary colors came together in harmony in this thought invoking presentation.

Unusual

This menswear collection is one you need to see in person to appreciate all of the different textures and depths of each of the fabrics used. Bright greens, oranges, and blues lifted the neutrals tones the accompanied, and the looks had the perfect balance of wearability and creativity.

Stef Mouchie

Shimmering wovens in both prints and solids flowed like water as the models glided down the runway in soft pinks, cream, and black. This soft and structured collection had duality, each look equally perfect for dashing around the city, or dressing for the office.
