It was totally worth waiting out in the cold for 30 minutes to check-out Leanne Marshall’s (pictured on the top right), latest nine-piece collection. The Project Runway alum was running late and so the dozens of people that had gathered to check-out her show were huddled shivering outside the space where she was showing..thankfully I didn’t give into my instinct to hop in a cab and head home! Leanne is super-sweet I spoke to her a bit about her inspiration — she told me her collection was inspired by NYC’s architectural shapes and her move to the city. In fact Leanne just moved to Manhattan a month ago and she whipped her collection up — in Project Runway-esque style — in only three week!
Anyone who followed Leanne on Project Runway will immediately recognize her signature aesthetic. I love the textural skirts she showed and I thought her gray coat was beautiful. I’m already looking forward to next season to see what Leanne can create with more than three weeks!!
