Today I had the great gift of working the Karen Walker fashion show at the Altman Building! The show was AMAZING-- full of beautiful brocade, chunky knits, great fall patterns, and amazing tailoring. Walker is a New Zealand designer that has been receiving great press coverage in the states! Her laid back but polished style is one that boasts beautiful natural fabrics and furs and amazing relaxed fit. She has been credited in magazines such as Vogue and Teen Vogue, Lucky, and InStyle, among many others. The show was heavily Indie inspired as much of Karen Walker might be considered "hippie chic."
Her Spring Summer looks were a HUGE hit this season and is one of her best yet. The collection was heavily influenced by American culture so there was a lot of red, white and blue, modern prints, and an All-American vibe to the collection. Karen Walker is available mostly in smaller boutiques, but her eye wear (which is sooo amazing), jewelry line, and parts of her collection is making its way into Barney's and Saks (hopefully more soon!). Keep an eye out for Karen Walker!!
Here is her Spring/Summer show:
