    New York Fashion Week

    Tory Burch is beachy keen with casual collection made for the great outdoors

    Since Tory Burch looked to the bold graphics of legendary interior designer David Hicks for her spring 2018 collection, she found a location that fit into her design theme — the outdoor courtyard of the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum in the tony surroundings of New York's Upper East Side.

     

    On a picture perfect day, it was a breathtaking runway setting for Burch's brand, which promises a sunny lifestyle of affordable luxury for her legions of fans.

     

    Some of the collection's highlights are made for the beach, with a kaleidoscope-print bikini and tunics, caftans, and shorts made of colorful T-print terrycloth towel fabric. And if you aren't up to dressing in terrycloth, Burch offers the T-print beach towel as an accessory instead.

     

    Graphic patterns abound in a series of day dresses in bold scarf-print silk fabrics, perforated floral skirts, and balloon-print pants. And Burch, who also produces a Tory Sport line of activewear, sprinkles in sports tech windbreakers in diamond prints and Hick-inspired interlocking tile patterns, with matching totes.

     

    Burch also excels at accessories, and models sometimes seemed weighed down in jewelry, towels and totes. But it may be hard to resist that fidget spinner pendant necklace.

    Tory Burch presented her spring 2018 collection outdoors at the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.

    While it's always fun to catch New York Fashion Week's top names, the real thrill comes from scouting out a little-known designer who might make it big one day. I'll never turn down an invitation to Michael Kors or Oscar de la Renta, but I most enjoy discovering that up-and-coming talent who's getting some under-the-radar buzz. So to close out the month-long CultureMap coverage [https://houston.culturemap.com/series/ny-fashion-week-spring-2018-houston/] of the spring/summer 2018 collections at New York Fashion Week, here are four designers — including one from Houston — whom you may not know much about now but could be the next big thing. ---------- In only his second season, Christian Cowan [https://www.christiancowan.com/]has been embraced by the fashion crowd who filled the sleek restaurant Indochine to glimpse the 23-year-old London-based designer's spring/summer 2018 collection. In the clubby, intimate surroundings, the event had the feel of a long-ago time when designers showed curated looks in their salon to a select audience who could practically reach out and touch the clothes. But this collection was decidedly modern, with an over-the-top club kid/drag queen attitude that has already attracted celebrity clients like Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, and Halsey, and couldn't help but make observers a little giddy. Among those watching: Gary Wassner, one of the fashion world's most astute investors, known for his ability to find and bankroll designers with the potential to make it big.

    Our last installment from New York Fashion Week featuring spring/summer 2018 collections highlights four up-and-coming designers.
