New York Fashion Week is here once again and the city is buzzing with excitement over the fabulous fashion shows. Spotlight sat down with artist and influencer Taylor Quitara to hear all about her NYFW experience.
You are based in New York. How many NYFW shows have you attended prior to this year?
This will be my third year participating in NYFW. Prior to this year, I have attended ten
runway shows!
As an artist yourself, what do you admire most about NYFW? Why?
What I admire the most about NYFW is that it’s become an outlet for me to take risks with my personal style. I think it keeps me on my toes and I love looking back at previous seasons to see my style evolve and grow
into something new!
How many shows are you attending this year? Which are you most excited about?
This year I am attending five shows and I am really looking forward to the Rachel Antoff x Susan Alexandra
runway. Rumor has it that it’s going to be a full-blown Westminster—style dog show which is such
a fun theme.
What is one piece of advice you would give to someone attending NYFW shows for the first time?
I would say to just enjoy the energy and let yourself get creative!
What is your go-to NYFW shoe?
I love love love a heeled boot, the ones that come all the way up your calf, I’ve started collecting them now and have a zebra print (Moschino) pair that are so sexy.
Who are some of the designers you look up to?
I adore everything that Colin LoCascio is doing and have such a special place in my heart for Anna Sui (an icon)!
