Cue Cristobal Tapia de Veer’s “Renaissance” — the “White Lotus”-ification of Fashion Week has officially begun.
Following a viral second season and explosive finale, Mike White’s “White Lotus” — the HBO Max drama centering on wealthy guests at a high-end resort chain — has gone fully international. This also includes Fashion Month, the four weeks of February where new fashion collections are showcased in the fashion capitals of New York, London, Milan and Paris. In typical fashion, a new season also includes star-studded front rows — particularly new celebrities whose stars have risen in the months prior. And “White Lotus” is no exception, with its cast (as anticipated) making a splash across Manhattan to take in the fall 2023 collections.
Below, discover the “White Lotus” cast’s takeover of Fashion Week this season.
Proenza Schouler
Meghann Fahy — known for playing Daphne in the show’s second season — shone in an ultra-mod take on traditional suiting in the front row of Proenza Schouler’s runway show at Chelsea Factory. Fahy posed ahead of the occasion on Saturday in a gold-buttoned white jacket, flared pants and a long coat accented with black tasseled arches — smoothly finished with a set of black leather pumps.
Kate Spade New York
Haley Lu Richardson made her Fashion Week debut at Kate Spade New York’s Friday morning presentation at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Taking in the color-blocked collection alongside Emma Roberts and Quinta Brunson, Richardson was snapped at Spade’s “Kate Spade green”-colored wall (adorned with its signature Sam handbag in the same hue) in a yellow wool bouclé skirt suit and gauzy leopard-printed pussybow blouse. A crystal-studded Sam bag, heart-shaped drop earrings and Spade’s $194 leopard-printed Maren pumps whimsically finished her ensemble.
New York Fashion Week previews upcoming fashion collections with runway shows and presentations in New York City. Held from Feb. 10-15, the fall 2023 schedule spotlights new collections from labels including Prabal Gurung, Rodarte, Coach, Carolina Herrera, Thom Browne and Luar. This season also features brands presenting for the first time on the Fashion Week calendar, including Heron Preston, Palomo Spain, Cucculelli Shaheen and Kate Barton.
