Badgley Mischka NYFW F/W19 – Review

INSPIRED BY: The opulent glamour of the ‘40s and ‘50s. Designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka drew their color palette from vintage Mercedes-Benz sports cars of the retro James Bond era. Think the costume wardrobe at Jay Gatsby’s dream soiree.
POP-CULTURE NOD: Kate Winslet’s festive-yet-chic wardrobe come December throughout the press junket tour for the sequel to The Holiday.
WEAR IT TO: Turn heads while pulling off a poker heist in the high-roller gambling lair at the Casino de Monte-Carlo, then switch to all black while making a speedy getaway on your private jet.
FIRST READ: The design duo served up a solid serving of their trademark red-carpet frocks, sure to be snapped-up this awards season, while the mix of leather trousers and sequined bottoms paired with embellished knits and woolen jackets will likely cater to those looking for more pared-back options come fall.
BEST LOOK: A plunging cocktail gown with crystal floral detailing at the décolletage, featuring a pink iridescent skirt with an oversized bow at the torso.
EYE-CATCHING ACCENTS: Paperbag shimmering trousers paired with cowl neck ribbed cable knit sweaters, a string of head-to-toe sequined gowns and plenty of the brand’s statement column dresses.
SPOTTED IN THE FROW: Kelly Bensimon, Molly Shannon, Patrick Starrr, J. Alexander, Tess Holiday, Jillian Mercado, Julie Mintz
OVERHEARD COURTSIDE: “If the show doesn’t start soon I’m going to have to pop a Mentos or get a cocktail before I pass out from low blood sugar.”
COLOR WHEEL: Emerald green, silver, black, rose gold, navy, gray, white, pink, magenta, cream.
