From Paris to Milan and New York to London, the most prestigious clothing designers gathered for one week at a time in order to showcase their talent. Names consisted of Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler, Moschino, Alexander Wang, Prabal Gurung, Valentino and many others who debuted their Spring/Summer (S/S) 2015 Collections.

Over at New York Fashion Week, Alexander Wang, the 30 year old designer and creative director of Balenciaga, returned to his original aesthetic of sportswear. This time, however, the pieces were revamped and provided more of a youthful, pure feeling along with a luxe atmosphere. He sent out ready to wear pieces that women with diverse body types could slip on. For Wang, sources of inspiration hailed from Nike and New Balance, clearly seen on the criss-crossing elastic waistlines.

On the Chanel runway during Paris Fashion Week, Karl Lagerfeld sent down colorful printed blouses and skirts with strong hints of femininity. A sensibility of feminism reigned supreme when Lagerfeld sent models out with signs reading “He is She,” “Ladies First” and “Boys Should Get Pregnant Too” during the closing finale.

Marc Jacob’s S/S 2015 Collection emulated an essence of cartoonish shape shifting. Enormous pockets on jacket hiplines were covered in crystal encrusted buttons, while other buttons became cabochon baubles. The collection gave a nod to both Parisian elegance and utilitarian attire.

Designers at Fashion Week dominantly inspired spring and summer trends of the future. Assorted trends include curvilinear silhouettes, gingham prints, abstract flower patterns, trouser suits and much more. Whatever the textile or design, a wide array of clothing is available to those who possess a style of their own.
