Glamour on the one hand, activism on the other: designers Tory Burch and Gabriela Hearst showcased two different approaches to New York Fashion Week on Tuesday.
American designer Burch offered New York a vintage-inspired collection that veered away from her well-known prints and bright colors.
"The collections have been for me much more personal now that I'm not running the business," she told AFP after the show.
Since 2019, Burch has entrusted her husband, Pierre-Yves Roussel, with managing the company, while moving into the roles of chief creative officer and executive chair.
For the Spring/Summer 2023 edit, Burch said she thought back to when she moved to New York in the 1990s and wanted to highlight "the concept of richness and minimalism" at the same time. Â
