Today the staff sat down and took a look back at New York Fashion Week. While a lot of big name brands put their best foot forward as usual, we decided to focus on the up and comers and we all agreed that Ego-Soleil stole the show and our hearts.
Designed by Marie and Photini, Ego-Soleil unveiled their new Spring/Summer 2018 collection in a rather intimate fashion—which was a welcomed change of pace compared to most NYFW events. Treating attendees to champagne, wine and jours-devours, Ego-Soleil’s 4-day popup left a lasting impression on fashion enthusiasts and shows what kind of magic can happen when a label takes the time to get up close and personal.
