Brandon Maxwell AW 22: New York

Full skirts danced with delicate pleating, framing neatly nipped-in waistlines that contoured the curves of the body to an almost couture-like fit. Shoulders came framed via sweetheart and cape-collar necklines, paired with nonchalantly draped blanket shawls, occasionally scattered with feathers. 

There was an ease to off-shoulder dresses in effortlessly crushed satin, while straight-legged denim lent an everyday appeal to decedent robe coats. Elsewhere, ballgowns in soft sheer corsetry came counterbalanced with giant cable knit skirting. These clever juxtapositions allowed the collection a contemporary high-low demeanor that felt just right for now. 

Looks came accessorized with corsage-style jewelry and delicate pin box clutches.
