Called Indigo Move, Mavi's new athleisure denim aims to expand the category beyond moisture-wicking jeggings.
With These Fancy Jeans a Bold Statement is an Understatement

Fringe Details Are Anything But Subtle
Michael Kors
This season fringe doesn’t stop at delicately frayed hems or deconstructed holes. All over tinsel and heavily tattered seams put this unfinished detail at the forefront.
NYFW: Frayed Fringe
Blank NYC Denim Sweatpants? Yes, Please
Denim sweatpants. I didn't think I would ever see the day. And if I did see the day, I definitely didn't think I would like it. I mean, yeah, Diesel has the Jogg Jeans which are great, but the knit denim they use to make it is probably too cost-prohibitive for most brands to duplicate. But, lo and behold, Blank NYC has created a pair of denim sweats trumping all I believed you could do with denim. Not only that, they're way cheaper and 100% cotton no less. I am so all about these right now.

These Jeans Have Us Seeing Spots!
Current/Elliott 'The Fling Jean' – $248 via Shopbop.com I think it's time to inject a little bit of fun into our jeans, don't you? Seriously, when is the last time you put together an outfit just for the pure fun of it. I'm not talking sartorial fun. I'm talking, rainbows, butterflies and unicorns fun. Current/Elliott's polka…

Bethnals Ltd’s Spring Collection is Refined, Yet Casual

Bethnals Ltd is expanding beyond the little brand that could that launched it's campaign on Kickstarter las year, to a full on contender. There are two distinct trends emerging in denim. The first is roomy and destroyed, while the other is clean and tailored. Bethnals definitely is making it's mark on the latter with some of the most refined (yet casual) pieces I've seen in quite some time.
A carryover from last season is an updated version of their Tommy Worker's jacket with this season's version boasting a longer length and grainier denim. This was one of my favorite pieces of all the lookbooks I reviewed last year and I'm stoked that they've decided to keep making it.

NYDJ Moving into Athleisure for Spring
NYDJ's Spring 2015 collection displayed in the penthouse of the London Hotel
While some choose sides in the denim vs yoga pants debate NYDJ is trying to bring us the best of both worlds as it expands it's offerings beyond shapewear jeans.
For Spring, trendworthy athleisurewear could be found alongside their usual offerings in a small but tight collection. Standout pieces were neoprene tops, leggings and boxy cardigans in colorways that ranged from minimalist grays and blacks to cheery floral prints.
Also new was the introduction of their patented tummy-tucking paneling incorporated into tops in the form of an attached undershirt. And they continue to introduce more dresses and workwear into their line which also includes the same technology.
After I left The London Hotel where the preview was held, I began to wonder why I spend so much time working out. If I stocked my closet with head to toe NYDJ I could save myself some torture.
Inside GUESS Spring 2015
GUESS's Spring 2015 collection on display in their NYC showroom
GUESS has gone for clear themes this year when presenting their collections and to great effect. This season's theme was inspired by traditional Japan and was in stark contrast to last season's boho city cowgirl theme where saddles, lassos and cowboy boots (see In the Showrooms: GUESS Fall 2014) provided the mood.
The pink parasols, cherry blossoms and pale but vivid candy-colored props that were sprinkled throughout the showroom created a sense of serenity that drew attention to the return of floral prints on shoes and jeans. It also softened GUESS's edgier offerings like boilersuits and frayed denim vests and skirts.
The "denim" bikini with hotpants will be a festival favorite and the brightly colored crossbody bags will be a hit when the weather gets warmer.
