The summer sun may be high and fierce, but the fashion world is already gearing up for the delightful embrace of fall. And as we do every season, we’re eager to know: what’s the buzz in the fashion scene? Well, as a devoted fashion lover, Donna Leah, founder of Donna Leah Designs, is thrilled to share her thoughts.
What fashionistas are anticipating this fall:
1. Material Mastery: From the luxe touch of velvet to the edgy statement of leather and the shimmer of sequins, we’re foreseeing an exciting medley of materials. Donna Leah loves to play with fabrics and see how they interact with light. Many people think of bold colors for summer. At Donna Leah Designs, she’s embraced vibrant hues for the whole year.
2. Trending Now: There’s something irresistibly charming about Barbie pink that has captured our hearts, and flowy dresses that add a touch of whimsy to our wardrobes. These are some of the styles that really standout right now. They are turning heads and Donna Leah can’t get enough of them.
3. Empowerment in Design: Donna Leah’s upcoming collection promises to be a blend of sexy, tight-fitting, and empowerment-charged outfits. It’s about grabbing attention. Do it with design and the confidence these outfits inspire.
4. Color Play: This season, I’m diving deep into a softer palette. Shades of pink, from pastels to bold Barbie hues, are top of my list. But it wouldn’t be fall without a touch of classic black. What truly excites me is experimenting with prints and various textures, bringing a tactile experience to fashion.
5. Miami Meets New York & LA: Drawing inspiration from the vivid hues and textures of Miami’s natural landscape, this collection for New York and Los Angeles Fashion Weeks is a testament to the city’s vibrant energy. Imagine the hues of a Miami sunset, the textures of its sandy shores, and the palette of its rich culture — all blended into garments fit for the red carpet.
Defining the Collection in Three Words: Sexy. Form-fitting. Star-power. But also colorful, because who said we had to limit ourselves?
Fashion Advice for Fall: Be audacious. Embrace comfort but never at the expense of glamour. Donna Leah’s mantra is, “Always strive to be that head-turner in the crowd. It is important to remember who you are. Fashion is as much about how you feel inside.”
Repeat Summer Wears: “My love for flowy outfits has known no bounds this summer. The breezy feel of chiffon has been a staple, and lounge-wear has given comfort a fashionable twist,” she explains.
Packing Essentials: Donna Leah says, “Whether I’m headed for a tropical retreat or a European escapade, gowns, beach coverups, and heels (always!) find their way into my suitcase. Because, why shouldn’t vacation fashion scream luxury?”
Miami Inspirations: The cosmopolitan vibe of Harbor Grill, the tantalizing flavors of Fuego, and the timeless aura of Mozart make them my top dining picks in Miami. But when it comes to seeking inspiration, her home, with its splendid art and nature vistas, is her sanctuary. Beyond that, the ocean, the beach, and Miami’s rich tapestry of museums fuel her creativity.
It was in New York where my dreams began. Those dreams of color, texture, and designs that transcended time. But it’s in Miami where they’ve flourished. At DonnaLeah Designs, creations aren’t bound by the ticking clock. Evening wear, lounge-wear, or ready-to-wear, it’s all about feeling special, powerful, and undeniably YOU.
