What a debut!ย
New York-based couture designer and artist Katya Leonovich premiered her first-ever menswear Spring / Summer 2020 collection on Day II of New York Fashion Week.
โFIX & FAXโ, the new collection derivesย inspiration from the merging of her personal artwork (described as โthe antidote of the casualty of existenceโ) with nature. A blend of lively colors, unconventional craftsmanship and ingenuity made this line one to remember, as all the dreaded-hair models beamed with confidence down the runway.
In addition, Fix and Fax are the names of Leonovichโs pet rats and served as the basis for her series of exaggerated story paintings and prints on the clothing. Although Leonovich is a newcomer to menswear, the Russian designer is no stranger to the catwalk. In previous years, she has showcased womenswear collections at Moscow, Paris and New York.ย
Among the guests in attendance included Miss Jay Alexander. โThese designs will help express oneโs true masculinityโ, said showgoer John Stiles. Stay tuned for the details on where you can purchase the new collection.
