Fashion on Fifth: Spring trend predictions? Groundbreaking
This week’s Fashion on Fifth is something that Miranda Priestly will either love or hate. Rather than focusing on the traditional florals (groundbreaking, I know), I wanted to dive into what New School students think will be trending this spring. Trends can be a finicky thing, especially in an industry that’s gradually working its way towards being more environmentally-conscious and sustainable.

The signs picketers were toting as they protested in front of the University Center weren’t the only things making statements. I’m reminded of something Blair Waldorf once said: “Fashion is the most powerful art there is. It’s movement, design, and architecture all in one. It shows the world who we are and who we’d like to be.”
