Ladies Who Lunch: Son Jung Wan Spring/Summer 2019

Although I have semi-retired from fashion reporting, Son Jung Wan’s collection is the one that I never miss.  Son Jung Wan’s collection always excites me and draws me back season after season.

For Spring/Summer 2019, Son Jung Wan created a collection which she called “Dramatic Moves”.  The inspiration led her to create a collection with a focus on glamour and exaggerated silhouettes.

Although Son Jung Wan drew primarily upon influences from the 1970’s and 80’s, she also referenced 40’s and 60’s style to create glamorous and romantic looks.  Even though Son Jung Wan was inspired by past eras, she took those influences and molded them into a completely contemporary collection.

A bold and vibrant collection, Son Jung Wan Spring/Summer 2019 reinforced why I keep coming back each season to marvel at her artistry.

I know that I missed the mark by not posting this during the Fall/Winter Season, but as busy as I have been, I didn’t want this one to not get seen.  Travis Hamilton’s Negris LeBrum Collection is one to take note of.

Inspired by a 1940’s love story between a French Creole woman and a black man who fought against societal pressures that would keep them apart, designer Travis Hamilton created Negris Lebrum.

Based in Houston, Texas, Travis Hamilton has presented his Negris Lebrum collection at New York Fashion Week for several seasons. 

Travis Hamilton designs his collections for a modern woman with attitude and strength.

After following Travis Hamilton’s Negris Lebrum for a few years, we have seen him evolve with each collection and look forward to more from this talented designer. Please also check out his most recent collection on his site!

Ladies Who Lunch: Erin Fetherston Fall/Winter 2017

Designer Erin Fetherston is known for her signature feminine collections.  And for Fall/Winter 2017 Erin Fetherston's collection maintained its beautiful feminine appeal, while also creating a free-spirited bohemian vibe.

Drawing on global influences, Erin Fetherson’s collection pulls references from France, Spain and Morocco.  Fringe, narrow scarves, and Moroccan babouches slippers mix together for a look that is very exotic.

As with other collections this season, there is a message behind the collection.  Erin Fetherston explained, “I also feel like it’s a nice message to remind the world that we’re global citizens and that is something to be treasured, protected, and defended.” And that message is as precious as her Fall/Winter Collection.
