Ayo Edebiri Wears Loewe To Golden Globes
Actress Ayo Edebiri made a striking appearance at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards, turning heads with her highly talked-about red-carpet look. Collaborating with her stylist, Danielle Goldberg, Edibiri once again proved they have a knack for creating standout moments. This time, instead of the typical gown, they chose a chic suit from Loewe. The monochromatic gray suit which was inspired by a Golden Globes look worn by Julia Roberts in 1990 was adorned with a gold feather tie dropping below the waistline, a red pin, and black traditional dress shoes. The slouchy suit arguably made Edibiri the coolest girl at the award ceremony.
New York Men’s Day Roster Shrinks
On February 6, New York Fashion Week will kick off with Men’s Day to highlight emerging brands. An array of brands from Agentry PR are set to participate in the day of underscoring menswear. In the past, as many as 12 designers participated, but with the date change, there was also a cut down in the number of designers participating.
“Sadly we are limited to six designers this season because of space availability,” Erin Hawker, founder of Agentry PR tells WWD. “When NYMD was moved to Thursday from Friday, as per usual, our additional space to showcase designers was not available. With the dates staying to Thursdays moving forward, we are already planning ahead for additional designers for September.”
