How men had their moment at New York Fashion Week

Men’s Day in NYFW

New York Men’s Day once again put the spotlight on American menswear at New York Fashion Week. William Frederick’s made-in-Cleveland collection was a testament to American manufacturing with classic-cut shirts, jackets and pants. Meanwhile, Perry Ellis launched his reboot with American sportswear fit for a new generation. Varsity jackets, joggers and a hoodie that said “America” ​​spoke to what a younger generation of sport-loving American consumers want from their menswear. Christopher Fraser

Aunt Adola

Tia Adeola helped kick off New York Fashion Week at the grand Prince George Ballroom in Flatiron.

Known for her rococo flourishes of ruffles and ruching, the designer did not disappoint her many admirers. The latest collection was filled to the brim with sexy sheer dresses and skin-baring ensembles embellished with feathers, ruffles, sparkly metallics, and occasionally lace and sequins. Men’s clothing included pirate-style satin shirts that Prince and his Revolution would have liked to wear. Pieces alluding to widespread protest and government repression in the designer’s home country of Nigeria also found their way into the collection, with the designer stating, “I share my thoughts and express my opinions through my clothes, unhindered.” sarah scissors
