On Tuesday, September 13th, Kevin Hall revealed his crisp, classic, hotel inspired line “Hotelito“ during NYFW. Hotelito‘s bold, resounding, backdrop, and sunset on the glassy ocean waves, of Todos Santos, Mexico were the motivating force, and pallet behind Hall’s 2023 Spring/Summer collection. From beaded lace fringe, to graphic-print, bright neons, reversible belts, you’ll witness gatherings, gowns , and getaways become iconic memories!The venue was an intimate all white space, with a non-traditional flow including two nooks for press. This also made the audience feel like they were apart of the show instead of onlookers. The bare runway allowed viewers to experience every color, texture, accessory and mood of each piece. Some audience favorites and runway highlights were; the pink high waisted cargo gown skirt, the white lace shirt dress, the lazer-cut confection dresses, and the multi beaded lace bodice crepe gown. The accessories were refined, subtle statement pieces and embellishments that complemented and highlighted each look. Every element of a timeless, elegant allure was observed in “Hotelito” . There were beaded sequined party looks, and flirty feminine summer cut outs. Plunging necklines, thigh high splits, and off the shoulder gowns serving just the right amount of skin. Greatness was in all aspects of this line especially in the thoughtful details!
