Oh New York Fashion Week...how we always wish we would be lucky enough to sit front row at any of the numerous shows that take place during the most glamorous week in New York. While some students are lucky enough to help out backstage, your own FSO board was stuck here dreaming of all of the beautiful clothes that debuted for Fall/Winter 2016. Today, each board member will be sharing their top picks from this season's New York Fashion Week.

Hannah's Favorites:
Alice + Olivia - The presentation itself was stunning. I have a friend and (KSU Fashion School Alumni) who is an assistant designer for A + O and seeing her work presented so beautifully was such a surreal thing. The models were places so casually. Some were active doing things like painting, while others were just posed strategically with props. As always, the designs were intricate and the line highlighted brilliant prints. This season the color palette was very 70's inspired and it was spot on aesthetically. 
Sabrina's Favorites:


The Row - The Row is always so refined and elegant which is the style I'm naturally drawn to; I especially like the high-waisted trousers for this season!



Fenty x Puma - I like what Rihanna is doing with Puma and transforming the brand and making it relevant to today's society. The punk grunge was fun, and the hair/makeup was out of this world!
Yeezy - The fact that Kanye West packed 20,000 into Madison Square Garden for his third Yeezy show is spectacular. The fan base is fierce and I love the energy that seeps into his fashion brand. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of his clothing, I appreciate how he executes his shows every season.

Claire's Favorites:


Oscar de la Renta - Oscar de la Renta never disappoints with its clean lines and attention to detail. This year's line was focused on a cinched waist. I loved this concept because it was a more classic version of the "fit and flare" dress that has been a staple for far too long.

Tracie's Favorites:
Mara Hoffman - I adored the vibes from this collection. The 1970's has been a favorite trend of mine all season long and I am so happy that it will still be around for Fall/Winter 2016. I can totally see myself wearing the majority of this collection, especially any of those gorgeous maxi dresses.


Tommy Hilfiger  - I always cannot wait to see what Tommy Hilfiger comes up with as a theme for his show. Even though my favorite by far was his football field for Fall 2015, I thought the nautical boat was so unique and entertaining. Tommy Hilfiger does not really fit my personal style, but I really want some of the jackets from this collection!


Alice + Olivia - I so wish I could have attended this presentation! I followed along with some of my favorite fashion bloggers on their Snapchats while they attended, and I adored the atmosphere of the show. The song "People" sung by Barbra Streisand was playing while models were staged in various everyday scenes themed in the 1970's. It was like the perfect fashion dream for me. I would honestly wear about 75% of the collection, and I was in love with the embroidered flare jeans.


Dana's Favorites:


 Maiyet - I love Maiyet's collection so much because of all the different textures and textiles used throughout the entire collection. (Textile geeks unite!) 
Rosie Assoulin - Rosie Assoulin has been a favorite of mine for a few years now; I always love the unique lines and architectural details she uses in all of her pieces. 


Mara Hoffman - Mara Hoffman's jumpsuits stole my heart this season. Loud prints, 70's inspired silhouettes and gowns with the *perfect* amount of volume are a few other reasons Mara Hoffman's show is one of my favorites.
