Hey ya’ll!

It’s the start of another glorious week and I’m back with another installment of our You Should Know feature! Today, I’m showcasing the delectable designers of a Los Angeles-based contemporary womenswear line known as Nicole Shante.

 

In a brief description on Nicole Shante’s site, the brand describes its style aesthetic as “classic, yet fresh, easy, yet chic, and accented with everyday glamour. As well as, being sophisticated, and youthful. By mixing premium fabrics with fine detailing, the goal for Nicole Shante is not to be defined. But refined as individual style, most importantly be understood as effortless style.”

After sifting through the Spring/Summer 2016 collection, I was immediately intrigued by the designer’s distinct use of color. With a love of strategic cutouts, playful fringe, off-the-shoulder wonders and voluptous silhouettes, Nicole Shante’s modern take on wardrobe staples proves that simplicity (with an edge) is always in!

We asked, you answered!  This year’s ‘How Do You Wear It’ submissions for Easter was filled with stylish bombers and bombshells eager to show off their Sunday Best.  It’s safe to say pinks and pastels are a popular color scheme for the holiday.  What else was on the menu? Florals.  Let’s take a look at some submissions:

Francine played up to the Easter spirit in a pastel purple dress that she made.  I love the tassel detailing on the off the shoulder sleeves.

 

Keisha wore her mustard green, faux leather dress well!

 

Sherod Lewis showed off his GQ swag in a pair of floral pants, pink hat and white shoes.  In love with this look!

LaShoundra of YoungATStyle.com exclaimed, “It’s all in the details! I love how my basic tee suddenly becomes a cropped top & off-the-shoulder- tee!”  The details for her look are on point! Such a simple yet chic ensemble.

 

 

Nelly gave color block realness!  Her yellow, pink and blue combo scream Easter. I especially loved the pop of pink on the lips.

Malyia, wrote, “What’s Easter without family? My sister Vanessa (@vennyb2) and I (@malyia_styles) looking Fashionable for Easter.”  Love it!  Sisters who slay together, stay together.

Tynette , of Caramel a la Mode, showed her seamstress skills in a red and pink floral dress made by her.  Her thigh-high boots from Nasty Gal matched perfectly!

 

Monjay of The Jaye Walker Style dabbled in pinks, nudes and metallics.  The moto jacket is fun finish to this look.

David said, “I wanted to display my Easter outfit this morning. I hope you enjoy it. Easter was the perfect excuse to wear my pastel pink/maroon suit.”  Well David, I am here for this suit!

 

Sporty Chic! Gina showed a more relaxed look for the holiday and I’m diggin’ it.

 

Well, that was fun!  Easter is the official ‘Welcome to Spring’ holiday so with that said, bring on the bright colors, open-toe sandals and mini skirts.

Maki Oh collections are marked by a certain vibrancy and complexity that is pleasing at first glance, but means even more when you dive into the history and meaning of the pieces. For Fall, Amaka Osakwe tapped into the essence at her very core: what it means to be a black woman in this day and age. Naturally, the answer is multi-faceted and ever-changing, but the designer gave a few possible answers to the question in sartorial form.

With only a few black designers making waves in fashion in a mainstream way, Osakwe’s voice is definitely an important one for the industry to hear. Her aesthetic has always been unapologetically Nigerian, with Yoruban adire and traditional garb woven into her modern silhouettes.

Patterns were aplenty in the assortment, with swirl motifs, camo, and a geometric triangle print playing centerstage.

Eyes are symbolic across many cultures and Osakwe placed them on a classic long-sleeve, jersey top in paillette form, a long-sleeve printed midi dress with contrast flounce sleeve hems, a cozy topper that we’d like to wear right now in real-time, and a sheer, button-front shirt for the perfect blend of sexiness and whimsy.

And the brand played on all of the quintessentially feminine details—tiered tulle, sexy slits, ruffles, plunging necklines, and more.

The way Osakwe played with trousers were among the most inspiring and innovative riffs we’ve seen this season. Iterations included pearl trim accenting the slits of the pant hems, a velvet suit that was red carpet-ready to say the least, culottes layered over a silky full-length pair of trousers, and a pearl-encrusted pair of crops with pleated detailing.

We love clothing made for powerful and strong women with an aesthetic that seeks to radiate that energy and spirit. This assortment was both alluring and beautiful—sure to please the brand’s fans, while also pulling in a whole new set of admirers who are seeking out looks that hold much more than what meets the eye.
