Alice + Olivia
An Ode To NYC & Gossip Girl
The modern-day Gossip Girl lives for glamorous New York moments, and knows how precious they are. She knows how to mix and match (career, kids, parties, trips), wears smokey eye makeup by Deck of Scarlet with her fabric mask, and her look is always sophisticated, cool, and full of romantic details, just like life in new New York.

As soon as I saw models dressed in plaid, descending those iconic “Blair Waldorf” stairs I knew we were in the presence of a modern-day Gossip Girl. Where better to stage this fete than in an Upper East Side townhouse, where uptown revels with downtown, and excitement meets sophistication. It felt like an ode to New York City, after a year of uncertainty, a year where people questioned “is New York is alive?” — here we are, this collection is the debut of everything we love and missed, giving new life to New York.
A collection of black, white, and red with pops of bold citron in a modern approach to tweed and lush faux fur jackets, fun party dresses, and floor length gowns. Almost as if Blair Waldorf and Jenny Humphrey created a line together — it’s the perfect mix of uptown and downtown NYC. Stacey Bendet styled in collaboration with Gossip Girl’s Eric Daman, who styled the original Gossip Girl and is also behind the 2021reboot. His penchant for pearls, plaid and texture makes for the perfect crossover of designers.

“I feel like there’s definitely more of a need to dress for function instead of for fun”
Staud S/S 2021
This season Staud embraces the familiar. Not only through cozy sweaters and knit soft sherpas, but also hints of a place that has provided us with emotional comfort and familiarity this year — home. With patterns of tic-tac-toe and childhood rooms, it brought forth a simple feeling of childhood nostalgia, family homes, and treasured moments. The collection delivers a sense of playfulness and heartfelt feeling of home in every way, and instead of leaving these simple pleasures behind as we return to normal life in 2021, they are stitched together.

With so few in-person runway presentations in New York this season, the pressure is on to make a show feel like a show. So when I sat down, in my stay-at-home pjs, and opened my Zoom to watch Tanya Taylor’s summer 2021 collection — I was blown away by the energetic, optimistic spirit of the collection. There’s still the big question of how we’ll all ease back out of our homes and into the worlds by the summer. After sitting in my home loungewear almost every day since October, it’s hard to find a compelling reason to get dressed up again.
Leave it to Tanya Taylor to remind us.
The Spring 2021 collection was inspired by feeling hopeful for the future. Full of color, artful prints, and playful sleeves —the collection showed joy and hopefulness inspired by the energetic, vibrant mood of the collection.
