It started with "HANNIBAL", a fall-winter 15/16 collection based on avant-garde aesthetics and minimalism, my first introduction to the Ukraine-based designer LARA QUINT. Approaching a composition with somewhat strict concepts.

OAO NEW YORK

In her debut collection, Abigail O’Neill Oswald of OAO New York presented a slew of functional pieces in silk, leather and neoprene. Pants and blouses in cerulean blue and soft coral, formfitting little black dresses, plus plenty of options in white compose a collection that is incredibly well-rounded and concise. Subtle details of pin tucks and piping, geometric bugle bead embroidery, intricate laser cuts and watercolor prints, inspired by the designer’s recent trip to Maldives, add to the simplistic charm and would not escape a discerning eye.

JACK HENRY NEW YORK... MADE IN AMERICA.

In 2009, designer Lauren Giambalvo started the brand Jack Henry New York. The name of the line originated from Giambalvo’s name preference of her first son. If that alone does not give any indication of how personal Jack Henry is to Giambalvo, the entire line is made in America. Manufactured in New York, Jack Henry stays true to its American roots; designs are made on the Lower East Side.
