Ella Emhoff makes her model debut at NYFW

About a week after the "Inauguration Day", Ella Emhoff, the stepdaughter of the current Vice President Kamala Harris, signs a modeling contract with the modeling agency IMG. And now the time has finally come: Ella Emhoff makes her debut – and that at New York Fashion Week. Her model start couldn't be more successful.

In a short film specially produced for Fashion Week, Ella is part of the model crew who are presenting the new autumn-winter collection 2021/22 from the Proenza Schouler label on the catwalk. She is allowed to show three different looks on the runway and looks like she hasn't done anything else for years.

Jason Wu: Are pop art prints back in fashion now?

Like so many other industries, New York Fashion Week is shaped by the corona pandemic this year. Many shows have to be moved to the virtual space and great designers like Ralph Lauren or Marc Jacobs are not even involved. Jason Wu kicked off Fashion Week on February 14, 2021 – the perfect gift for Valentine's Day for fashionistas. His designs are not flashy and colorful, but one print stands out in particular.

The cola bottle is the starting point of his collection, which is intended to remind of earlier, lighter days. Andy Warhol was already able to celebrate great success with his colorful pop art prints in the 50s, why shouldn't the upbeat prints celebrate a revival in 2021? We think pop art prints are super stylish in small cans, as a complete look, but a little too much!
