Initial reaction:
A winter wonderland making us reconsider despair in the face of the endless polar vortex in New York. Tons of varieties of plaids and pom-pom beanies. A contrast of rugged structure with velvet and suede luxury.
Winter wonderland:
The set for the show was a ski village, complete with a ski lift, evergreen trees, a snowy path runway and mountains in the distance.
Inside-outside synchronicity:
The Tommy team could have shoveled snow into the Park Avenue Armory from the sidewalks outside.
Music:
Cat Power, Smashing Pumpkins, Elliott Smith and Neil Young’s Cinnamon Girl on the playlist – it feels like a road trip from a boarding school up to Vermont for some weekend skiing (and, if you're wearing soft plaids, probably kissing).
Best detail:
Shaggy fringe on coat hems.
