Jason Wu Proves There's Still Romance in NYC

Against a backdrop of jaw-dropping florals, Jason Wu presented his F/W 18 collection on Friday (though many of his peers have decamped for Paris). Wu offers a series of looks both romantic and structured against a runway studded with jewels (literally) and jewel-tones. Sheer netting, cutouts, and knots dressed down otherwise formal office-wear while silky slips and a set of cotton-candy dresses offered a decidedly fanciful element to the collection. All in all, the collection is proof that there's still something elegant about NYC style. Read on to see it all now.
