It's #NYFW: Badgley Mischka Fall 2017

"It’s been a minute since Mark Badgley and James Mischka put on a proper show, and for their return to the runway, the designers went all out. Ahead of the first looks, the stage was set with furniture from their debut home collection. Models perched amongst the tufted settees and gilded canopy beds, decked out in the new line of casual (well, by their standards) Badgley Mischka sportswear. Fall is a season of expansion for this tried-and-true New York label, and while Badgley and Mischka are clearly thinking ahead, this season’s core inspiration was gathered from the past.“We’re caught between some wars right now,” Badgley said backstage. “We went back to the time when Europe and America were between the two World Wars.” He added, “It’s about the women living in those uncertain times and how they used power and strength to soldier through—it resonates today.” Perhaps this is why the pair thought that it would be an appropriate time to introduce an easier, everyday ready-to-wear category, though the blue velvet tracksuit, fur stoles, and embellished sneakers hardly felt dressed down. Nonetheless, the new pieces fit well into the Badgley Mischka woman’s wardrobe, as did the rest of their glittering lineup." - vogue.com
