Kate Spade is celebrating their upcoming 30-year anniversary with their stunning spring 2023 collection. The unveiling took place yesterday on the 78th floor of the world trade center, in a gorgeous airy room where you could see the whole city at any angle. Trailblazer and Tiktok sensation Dylan Mulvaney hosted the show as she gave viewers an exciting look at the latest installment. The collection was designed by Tom Mora and Jennifer Lyu, and it “reflects the beauty of spring and the adventures that come when you least expect them…like the simple pleasure of getting caught in the rain,” they said. While keeping the feel of Kate Spade’s heritage brand codes, Mora and Lyu teamed up to give the collection a new perspective and feel. The colors are bright and the designs are partnered and so much fun. It’s truly a beautiful representation of the little things in life, and it’s sure to be a reminder of the joy in life for anyone who wears the collection. There was one bag that started it all for Kate Spade, and this season the brand has decided to reimagine it for this new generation. The Sam bag is recreated with all new fabrics and a new look brought to you by 100% recycled materials.

To channel the feeling they set out to create, getting caught in the rain, it was quite literally raining inside on the 78th floor. The showcase featured lines of models standing along a grass-filled runway with baloon-made clouds on top of them. The rain came from the clouds on either side of the runway, and there was even a flash of light to represent lightning every now and then.
