Pamella Roland NYFW S/S20 – Review

INSPIRED BY: Designer Pamella Roland’s well-honed craft of delivering red-carpet-ready ensembles. Her latest collection of party frocks and cocktail gowns failed to disappoint, as evidenced by the adorning eyes of the Real Housewives of New York City cast perched in the front row.
POP-CULTURE NOD: Alessandra Ambrosio at luxury jeweler De Grisogono’s Cannes Film Festival party at French Riviera hotspot Grand Hotel du Cap Eden-Roc
WEAR IT TO: Your rehearsal dinner at Le Parker Meridien’s Estrela Penthouse.
FIRST READ: A minidress with exploding with feather detail opened the show, serving as a precursor to the spate of striking gowns and slinky cocktail looks to follow. Dresses featured Roland’s trademark beaded embellishments and sequined accents, while bodycon numbers were given a contemporary update via plunging necklines and the addition of a zebra print. Also key were a string of princess dresses and one-shoulder floor-length gowns with a floral motif, while a spate of playful layered tulle minis closed out the show.
BEST LOOK: A strapless princess ball gown in lavender and blush, featuring whispy feather detail and sequined embellishments.
EYE-CATCHING ACCENTS: Ruffled rah-rah dresses in jewel tones added a youthful vibe to the gala-ready collection, while silver figure-hugging frocks with tassel detail formed part of the late-night date options of the lineup. As always, Roland catered to the bride in search of a unique, fashion-forward look for all parts of the big day, while the crowd’s A-listers were sure to draw inspiration from the show ahead of awards season.
