9 Standout Shows From New York Fashion Week

For SS27, Khaite moved away from its familiar stealthy cool towards something softer and more romantic. Catherine Holstein looked to Venice for inspiration, translating its old-world glamour into flower-embroidered lace dresses, pastel shifts and delicate mousseline separates. Horsehair ruffles added movement, while exposed corsetry, hand-finished details and softly undone fastenings kept the collection grounded in Khaite’s signature sensuality. The standout pieces were the sheer evening suits.

Daniella Kallmeyer found inspiration in the structure and texture of traditional Japanese packaging for SS27. The collection played with balance: formal yet relaxed, polished yet practical. Knit co-ords, opera dusters and cropped jackets were styled alongside pedal-pusher trousers and light-wash jeans, creating a wardrobe that felt both directional and wearable. Beaded plaids, fringe-trimmed knits and an intricately worked ivory jacket added depth, while the season’s most unexpected accessory was the cummerbund.

For SS27, Magda Butrym softened her signature leather and sculpted silhouettes with a lighter, more romantic approach. Inspired by Polish artist Natalia LL and memories of her grandmother in the kitchen, the collection reimagined the apron through layers of sheer silk, delicate slips and translucent trenches. Feathers, pearls and crochet-edged details added a glamorous finish, while structured blazers and fitted dresses kept the collection grounded in Butrym’s confident, feminine aesthetic.

Veronica Leoni’s SS27 collection distilled Calvin Klein’s design codes down to their essentials. The heavy layers and embellishment of previous seasons gave way to slip dresses, slim skirts, straight-leg trousers, clean t-shirts and sharply cut jackets. Inspired in part by Georgia O’Keeffe’s pared-back wardrobe, the collection focused on repetition, modular dressing and beautifully considered basics. Cotton blazers, pale high-waisted denim, plaid trenches and a two-tone silk slip dress captured the quiet power of modern minimalism.
