NYFW15: David Tlale

The collection by David Tlale can be summed up in two words: Tyson Beckford. No! Focus! 

David Tlale proved why he is a NYFW mainstay in two words: great work. The show clearly illustrated its three themes: black and leather, swirl and motif, neutrals. The black and leather section featured lots of sheer fabric, uneven hemlines, and fur. While the motif section made excellent use of fitted jackets and flowing fabrics. You would expect the neutral section to have been drab and boring; not David Tlale's work. Instead we saw neutrals pop with fine tailoring and incredible structure. And we saw the reemergence of harem pants (YAAAAAAS! I love harem pants! Please see the pics of me sporting them at NYFW 2014). 

It was awesome to see a designer of color and models of color at MBFW! Models Tyson Beckford, Nykhor Paul, Aamito Stacie Lagum, and Diandra Forrest all graced the catwalk!
