Tory Burch
Positioning themselves for success in an uncertain environment, brands at NYFW focused on wearable fashion for S/S 26, as they face challenges from constantly changing tariffs, dimming consumer loyalty, wholesale upheaval and a luxury sector in crisis.
Despite many playing it safe with aspirational yet commercial, elevated everyday wear, occasion wear was also very much in evidence, with embellishment, embroidery, sequins, high shine fabrications and couture inspired dresses, highlighting how, in challenging times, fashion serves as an escape and a tool for uplifting consumers spirits.
