Recent visit to NYC: Met with Christopher Collins from PR

Chris is such a sweetie!

During my recent visit to NYC on my usual fabric hunt, I somehow landed at a luxury showcase of designers. I was walking around observing work and mini runway shows when I immediately spotted Christopher Collins booth. His booth was understated but very sophisticated. I looked through his new Fall 2012 collection which was a combination of knits, very well structured jackets, kimono like sweaters and suit pants. The color palette was burgundy, browns, black and navy.

I had the opportunity to speak with him and his manager who talked to me about the collection and overall journey through PR.

Not only did I feel really happy that I spoke with him but really inspired to take my own work to a new level. Chris was humble, sweet and incredibly gracious- qualities I adore in  a designer. His personality was shining through all his work which demonstrated quality, luxury, high fashion and femininity with amazing fit.
