my nyfw: rachel comey fall 2012

the other night, i had the pleasure of attending the rachel comey fall 2012 show. i was allowed to take a look backstage to snap a few photos before the models got ready, so i was able to ooh and ahh at the epic shoes with very cool sheer socks designed in collaboration with hansel from basel. basically, it was a match made in heaven because rachel comey consistently makes the coolest shoes and hansel from basel always has the most creative socks! and well, i just can’t help but focus on those two details!

the collection was very sophisticated and minimalistic with a nod to the retro-futuristic ’60s with sleek beehives and cute vintage-inspired details like clear vinyl elements added to belts, dresses, and shoes!

please note all photos were taken by me. please only repost with proper credit!

  1. WOW. WOW. the socks are just so awesome… a wonderful little detail touch that almost steals the show!

    great photographs erin, you really really capture these almost serene moments in what must be complete chaos!

  2. Wow – what an amalgam of inspiring shots. i feel like i’ve been wearing ’60s inspired clothing for years – so I am so excited to see it in rachel comey’s new fall 2012 – all anew & afresh with nails, polka dots, chunky boots, and simple black eyeliner! fashion really is amazing this year.
