Altuzarra Fall / Winter 2016

NEW YORK — Alanna Arrington continued her stride through her first ever Fashion Week in Gotham by opening the Altuzarra Fall / Winter 2016 runway show at Spring Studios Saturday evening. “I’m really nervous, but...I’m so excited,” Alanna said backstage moments before leading the runway show by wearing its first look, a navy wool turtleneck with nappa lacing, mahogany and natural white shearling aviator coat worn with a black peplum back shirt. In the collection notes, the designer is said to have drawn inspiration from Jim Jarmusch’s Only Lovers Left Alive (2013), that dark romance dripping with hemoglobin. Also on the runway were a group of six that included Nirvana Naves, Katlin Aas, Binx, Lineisy Montero, Vera Van Erp, and Julie Hoomans, all of whom, it must be said, got the collective blood racing.
