L’intermission — Morning Serenity

October 3, 2022

Brandon Maxwell indicated more tranquility is in store for Spring 2023 with his showing at New York Fashion Week this past September. The acclaimed designer decided to forgo his usual party-ready style for a more subtle collection inspired by the desire for a break from the chaos of city life. It’s a direct response to the designer’s recent move to Los Angeles, where the time zone requires an earlier start to his workday. Maxwell claims he feels nostalgic in the mornings, so the collection includes silhouettes inspired by the late 1990s and early 2000s. He also showed lots of lavender—a color he claims “lacks a sense of urgency.”
