It's only been a few days since the end of New York Fashion Week, but it already feels like I've lived many lives since then. What can I say? From jetting to The Plaza for Staud to roaming around The Museum of Natural History for Tory Burch, you could say the week was busy. Plus, the weather was—I'll say this as nicely as possible—unpleasant, so amidst the heavy rain and high humidity, sitting in the dry venues and watching beautiful clothing come down the runway were the moments I was looking forward to.

Amidst the long schedule, here are some highlights of the scene.

Sandy Liang had a bow-filled show with on-brand guests, including Lola Tung from The Summer I Turned Pretty who wore a full "pretty" look from the designer. Mansur Gavriel took over Orchard Street to celebrate the brand's 10th anniversary with fresh snacks, a tower of their iconic bucket bag, and models walking through the streets. Wes Gordon showed his spring collection for Caroline Herrera in The Whitney Museum of Art, where models walked outside to give outside guests a view. Ralph Lauren returned to the show calendar (The last time he presented in New York was September 2019.) It's these moments that make fashion week so dreamy.

Despite designers showing their spring 2024 collections, there were a plethora of trends I wanted to peel off the runway and wear immediately. (Some shows even had 'See Now and Buy Now' options, so I'm not the only one.) Showgoers (and models) held fans as they battled the heat, but there were a lot of other moments that deserve your attention.

Modern futurism at Tory Burch had our entire team texting each other in a frenzy. Proenza Schouler brought out red tights (and coordinating red dresses) that our editor-in-chief and I immediately ran to mimic following the show. Staud brought back '90s-inspired pastels that we couldn't help but swoon over. While the weather may have been a little chaotic this season, there were gems amongst the week we're holding onto till spring.

There are still three more cities to go to, but before we move on to London, Milan, and Paris, we've given you a complete download on the top trends to know from New York below.

Our editor Anna wore black capris to the Sandy Liang show, so you could say Who What Wear was ahead of the curve.

I know the resurgence of this might cause an initial shock, but the designer above prove that when styled correctly, it'll look incredibly cool.

These days, all it takes is a bow on top to take a clothing item to the next level. Brands like Sandy Liang have become synonymous with the look, but more of the fashion set seems to be catching on.

We've all used the word "quiet luxury" and "minimalism" more than ever this year, and the runways of Tibi and Bevza prove that even for 2024, less is still more.

Sheer fabrics look better than ever. This season, to make the trend more wearable, they were paired with wardrobe basics like blazers and sweaters.

The bigger the earrings, the better. Everyone went into a frenzy with Bottega Veneta's drop earrings, and brands this season followed suit with more heavy-duty jewelry.
