Thirteen years after the 9/11 attacks, New York Fashion Week has made history by presenting a catwalk show at the World Trade Center with a stunning collection for Jason Wu at Hugo Boss.
After the romantic elegance of Michael Kors in the morning and much-talked-about group effort by pop diva Miley Cyrus and bad-boy designer Jeremy Scott, Wu unveiled his second collection for Hugo Boss womenswear.
The show unfolded yesterday on the 54th floor of World Trade Center tower No. 4, just metres from a memorial honoring fallen firefighters and one day before New York pays tribute to the nearly 3,000 people killed in the terror hijackings.
The spectacular views of New York bay reflected perfectly the refined precision of the clothes in soft yellow, turquoise, lavender, white and black.
Earlier, Indian-American designer Bibhu Mohapatra offered a collection inspired by English heiress Nancy Cunard, a muse to Aldous Huxley and activist who fought for much of her life against racism and fascism.
