NYFW Ones to Watch: Frederick Anderson





Designer Frederick Anderson presented his SS23 runway collection at Moonlight studios during NYFW. The "garden party" collection which was inspired by a poem from Maya Angelou was a fun and sophisticated take on the trends we've been seeing on the runway this season. Whimsical floral designs, expert drapery, relaxed and breathable suits, and oversized accessories all came together to create the colorful and elegant collection. The show attracted several influencers, philanthropists, and celebrities and the star-studded front row brought together influencers from all industries keeping with the theme of this NYFW which has brought together traditional fashion outsiders. 

The show was definitely a success and the designer came out to celebrate with everyone after the event. The designer has recently garnered a lot of attention as a designer that isn't afraid to play with color, sequins and more even during the pandemic. The designer has also received a lot of buzz from the fashion industry recently and is set to host the annual FGI Night of Stars Awards next month. 

Some of my favorite pieces included a candy pink ruffle two-piece set, brightly colored dresses with 3d floral appliques, and more. The collection did remind one of a garden party as we look towards spring with trends for bright colors and whimsical design elements continuing. However, there was definitely a modern edge to the collection that appealed to the 2023 consumer. 

I can't wait to see more from this designer!
