Holding the presentation in a crowded art gallery in Manhattan’s Lower East Side is right on brand with Altman, who is a multidisciplinary artist herself. She highlighted her painterly background in both the look of her collection, as well as a showcase where the models held paint brushes and casually stood propped up against painted ladders.

The looks for both men and women alike were highly accessible streetwear fits. Altman envisioned a summer that is all about being bold — from big bright pops of nearly fluorescent color to tops with handprints over the chest to accessorizing looks with buttons and accessories.

In an industry where models of a certain look or body type tend to dominate — Altman also featured models of all ages and abilities. One model showed off her gray hair and another was sitting in a wheelchair — proving fashion is indeed for everyone.
