RISD IN THE HOUSE
SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 9TH, 2017
WORDS BY THE EDITORS
PHOTOGRAPHY BY BABYHOUSE NEW YORK
Fashion darlings and RISD alumni set their backdrop in the ever changing landscape of industrial Bushwick.
It’s officially NYFW and the madness is upon us, in a good (yet always sleep-deprived) way. Ahead of our show on Sunday night, we stay busy bopping around the city from show-to-show capturing the collection essentials and backstage highlights at some of our favorite brands showing in New York. Bushwick was the setting for Mike Eckhaus and Zoe Latta’s Spring/Summer ‘18 runway show. The up and coming, but still industrial, rigid landscape was a perfect backdrop to showcase the growth of the two young designers.
When we walked into the warehouse space at 99 Scott Ave…
Met the most beautiful mother to be—dressed in a nineteen button, ribbed long-sleeve dress. The buttons were open in the middle, showcasing her pregnant belly, it was a moment. Excited to see her strength on the runway it was also amazing to see college friends strut their stuff—we like that Mike and Zoe keep their fam close, it resonates.
If Mike and Zoe let us walk in their show we would wear …
Easy, the acid wash polka dotted jeans.
