Taking place in the Javits Center (a convention space that can feel more like an airplane hangar in size), there are literally thousands of vendors there, showing clothing, shoes, bags, jewelry, hats and more. Every booth is decorated to the nines and shows the personality of the brand. My favorite, to no ones surprise, is Milly. I want my apartment to look like their temporary showroom! The wallpaper! The chandeliers! The furniture! Oh, and all the clothes would look great in my closet, too...
While we are on the topic of Milly, I might as well show you some of their super cute bags and shoes. They teamed up with everyone's favorite boat shoe purveyor, Sperry Topsider, for a fresh new look for spring. The floral and bright colored bags are also looking lovely.
I always feel a bit like a kid in a candy store--everywhere I looked is something beautiful that I want to take home RIGHT THIS MINUTE! It is definitely an exercise in patience, since we all have to wait months and months until we see these pieces in stores. A practiced eye (like Bob and Martha's) is necessary to wade through the madness and buy for your customers, not just you!
We saw all the Cotton Mill favorites and they are looking AWESOME. Here is quick run-down on who we saw:
- DVF
- Tibi
- By Smith
- Shoshanna
- Vince
- Yoanna Baraschi
- Milly
- Rebecca Taylor
- Badgley Mischka
- Alice + Olivia
- Halston Heritage
- Kirribilla
- Nicole Miller
PLUS, there are some new lines that might be in the mix, but I'm going to wait to let the cat out of the bag on those. Be on the lookout for more Coterie posts this week!
