Daniel Hechter showcased its spring/summer 2018 collection at Dune Studios during New York Fashion Week: Men’s. As Daniel Hechter was new to this season’s New York Men’s Day roster I marked it down as a brand to watch. Although new to me Daniel Hechter Paris is a French label with 50+ years under their belt.
On Tuesday, July 11th, we took backstage with Death to Tennis to check out grooming looks for New York Fashion Week: Men’s.
Krammer & Stoudt returned to New York Men’s Day for the presentation of its spring/summer 2018 collection. The east coast brand didn’t stray away from its west coast vibes, however, it did offer a more laid back technique. Michael Rubin the designer behind the brand pulled inspiration from his childhood camping trips in Baja Cali: a Mexican State bordering California.
Models were super chill surrounded by shimmering silver pop-up palm trees and soft lighting which helped create a more mellow aesthetic. The collection itself was a contemporary bohemian So-Cal feel infused with a southwest latin twist. Hues of blue were the primary color palette used. The line also added pops of cream, beige, green, and purple. Intricate stripes, embroideries, and graphic prints were prominent in the collection as well. Featured pieces were casual suits, light sports jackets, silk-like button down shirts, ankle length cuffed trousers, short knit robe-like sweaters, and matching short and shirt sets.
Although some of the pieces may look a bit heavy for summer to the eye their soft, light, and airy to the touch. This was achieved by the use of several fine fabrics, chief of which were sponsored by Albini Group.
The Albini Group is an Italian textile house responsible for producer of some of the world’s finest shirting fabrics. This they partnered with the CFDA and New York Men’s Day to donate a selection of luxury fabrics to New York’s most promising emergent designers.

If you look for high energy on the runways of New York Fashion Week, Vivienne Tam’s FW17 show most certainly delivered.
