Initial reaction:

New York native: models were joined by a select street cast gang including Angel Haze, A$AP Illz and Chelsea Leyland, as casted by Angus Munro and Noah Shelley for AM casting.

Set:

A massive LED screen, which as the show opened, played a film of the street cast models talking about what New York means to them.

Stand out looks:

The final laser-cut, floral lace dresses in sugar pink and grey, and an earlier liquid leather spaghetti strap dress with a dropped waist – worn with a black New York Yankee cap.

Unexpected details:

Sequins worn with sweat pants and puffer jackets – a classic DKNY interpretation of ‘street’ wear, put even more into context by the unique cast.

Left me wondering:

The hash tag for the show was #25yearsstrong, what will the next 25 years of DKNY bring?
