I was especially excited for the CUSHNIE show. It was Carly Cushnie’s debut as a solo designer after the departure of her business and creative partner Michelle Ochs earlier this year (Read about it here).

I love this brand and have featured them on the blog before

There had been a ton of press leading up to the show so I really wanted to see what Ms. Cushnie would do on her own and she did not disappoint!

3 Reasons I Loved the Show

I love black and white and that has been a staple of their prior collections. She kept that aesthetic in the show. However, she also introduced some wonderful colors and prints to the palette including denim.
I love that her line was size inclusive. Both regular size and plus size models walked in her show. In an industry that is more exclusive than inclusive I loved this about the show.
I love that there were many models of color in the show as well, including Winnie Harlow. Being a woman of color I am always happy to see other women of color featured, especially in fashion. Representation matters. #melaninmagic

Welcome CUSHNIE, you nailed it.
