NYFW 2016 Coach Street Style

 

The street style circus outside the Coach fashion show was overwhelming frantic with a super long line of photographers, tourists and asian fan girls obsessively waiting for their heroes to show up. When they appeared, there was a lot of screaming, pushing and shoving. Courtney Love, Serena Williams, and popular fashion bloggers like Chiara Ferragni, and Eleonara Carisi also made appearances.

Sadly I didn’t get a seat at the runway show, but thankfully I was invited the next day for a ‘re-see’ which basically means I get to visit the Coach Headquarters’ showroom to touch and feel all the clothes that appeared on the runway. Coach SS17 was all about punk edge rock, with Elvis Presley on Tees, high platform boots with rock studs, and bags weighing a ton from all the metal hard-wear dandgling off it. I’ll show you what I mean in my next post.

In the meanwhile, here are the street style highlights from the Coach fashion show.

NYFW 2016 Day 7 – Models Mayhem at Marc Jacobs Show

 

The last day of NYFW 2016 was all about Marc Jacobs and dreads, but as for me I wanted to experiment more with light and shade to create more visually interesting images. I didn’t want my images to look perfect, but raw, moodier and more ‘in the moment’, and I couldn’t be more happier with my work on the last day at the Marc Jacob’s show.

 

I know its not my standard ‘clean and minimal’ style of editing but I’m really liking it. I guess at the end of the day, you have to ask yourself what are you trying to achieve and what story are you trying to tell. I added more green, contrast, grain and fades in my images to give my images a more edgier look.

Tell me what you think! xx

New York Fashion Week 2016 Day 5 Street Style

Day 5 street style highlights were taken outside Proenza Schouler, Phillip Lim and Thom Browne shows.

Gucci bags and loafers; denim under skirts and shirts with large cuffs; frayed pants and skirts; and off-the shoulders continued to dominate the streets; but I’m especially appreciating the level of colour and sophistication. I’m loving the super long vests layered over a simple white shirt and denim pants; large pleated tops, slip dresses worn over tees and the new Philip Lim SS17 collection is to die for.

Below are my personal favourites, including funny woman, Whoopi Goldberg and she hasn’t aged one single bit! She was such a treat to shoot, incredibly charismatic where she made a few jokes while she signaled us to get off the road so we can take a picture of her without getting killed. What a legend!

Melbourne Central Street Style August 2016

It’s that time of the month to snoop out the levels of Melbourne Central to snap up my favourite street style looks.

What I enjoy most about stopping people on their tracks is putting a smile on their faces after complimenting them on how they well they have dressed. It really makes their day.

Thank you  Melbourne Central for having me again, and to Jackson Roach for all the captions!

The next time you visit, I’ll be off to New York for fashion week so stay tuned xx

Vellas’ layering really caught my eye. The way she mixes black lace with a form-fitting turtleneck is really unique. Not to mention the way she brightens up a grey jacket with colourful Japanese patchwork! Vella tops off her look in a pair of Adidas Stan Smiths. Tell us, how do you layer when the temperature drops?

 

karenwoo-mc-frasercreelman

Donning cord pants over chinos, this Melbourne gent has given fresh thought to the classic preppy style we know and love. Not to mention the autumnal colours of his check shirt and crisp white low tops, this is one dapper dude on the move!

Even when she’s not in the studio, Chinese designer Mei Lins’ fashion game is always on point. Reppin’ her own designs, I loved the way Mei has given a pop of pastel colour with hand writing on the back of her denim jacket. Her pants are tied in an interesting way as well, that give a unique silhouette that’s still wearable for every day.

 

karenwoo-melbournecentral-aug2016_026

karenwoo-mc-jaymesmakis

We love fashion that tells a story, and that’s what @JaymesMakis’ look is all about. Channeling bohemian vibes, Jaymes’ tribal shawl is from Bali and his jewelry is all hand made from pieces he’s collected whilst travelling. I love the way Jaymes has draped the shawl around his top half to give a cocoon silhouette, and has kept the colour scheme quite nomadic.

 

WOO_0034

karenwoo-mc-abelmazo

With dreams of making it big in Japan, musician Abel has the rockstar look down pat! Putting his best foot forward in a pair of white Common Projects sneakers and all Acne ensemble, we think Abels’ threads are urban street wear at its best.

 

karenwoo-mc-mary

The only thing more eye-catching than Mary’s bright smile is her tribal print jacket. I love the way she’s mixed this Gorman piece with a vintage maxi skirt and Converse high tops for the perfect urban ensemble.

 

karenwoo-mc-nick

We love the way this gent has brightened up an all navy ensemble with a block panel sweater in autumnal shades.

 

karenwoo-mc-rachelwornou

When it comes to cool, understated style, we can’t look past this fashionistas outfit. Denim is a go-to for most, but we love the way this jacket dons a fur collar for added warmth and  pleated pants to complete the look. Tell us, what’s your favourite denim piece?

 

karenwoo-mc-armenmazo

We love dapper gents who aren’t afraid to set the trend and walk their own path. Opting for a relaxed silhouette, this gents burgundy neck tie adds a twist of colour to an otherwise all white ensemble.

 

karenwoo-melbournecentral-aug2016_016

Suicide squad you say? We think Les’s in a league of his own! This punk rocker dons the iconic Rottweiler tee by Givenchy, with zip detailed denim and studded Christian Louboutins to match. Les’s camo jacket by Off White with embellished badging rounds out this loud punk look.

 

karenwoo-mc-sophietaylor

After finding out this fashionista is on the retail job hunt, it’s pretty clear she’s dressed for the role! I love the way Sophie paired her cropped puffer with a high waist pant to give the illusion of longer legs. Opting for a light chambray blue gives this winter look a pop of colour. Tell us, how do you add colour to your winter wardrobe?

 

karenwoo-mc-steveando

Who said winter is all about dark colours! We love this dapper gents’ chambray jacket with floral pocket square to match.­ Tell us, how do you brighten up your winter wardrobe?

 

karenwoo-mc-louisaberglund

A key look this winter was the bomber jacket, so we love it when fashionistas experiment with different colours like this olive one. Combined with an oversized sweat and indigo denim in a velvet finish, we think this collegiate look is down pat. Tell us, what colour is your bomber jacket?

 

karenwoo-mc-july

Keep it fun and playful in a denim jumpsuit like this Melbourne fashionsta! We love the way she’s opted for a darker indigo to complement the season. Tell us, how would you wear a denim jumpsuit?
