Creatures Of The Wind
Why We Need To Know Now: This duo has long been a favorite of our Chicago channel, but something unusual happened this NYFW. When our EIC (who has sat through more fashion shows than many of the rest of us put together) returned from the presentation, she immediately penned a moving review. She sums up the collection, and what it heralds, as follows: "(Creatures Of The Wind's) unique sensibility has been a refreshing arrival amid so many trend-obsessed designer drones... yesterday's first runway show more than proved this is a collection — and point of view — that's picking up speed...fast."
In Five Words: Sunny bohemia with menswear tailoring.
