The rest of the Fashion Week locations followed suit, as designers debuted over-the-top pieces highlighting the upcoming fall season’s favorite trend.

Little-known Japanese dress and costume designer Tomo Koizumi started off the week with an elegant array of extravagant, colorful gowns. In layers upon layers of tulle, high profile models like Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski, and actresses like Rowan Blanchard stunned in Koizumi’s line. According to Harper’s Bazaar, the rookie designer was discovered only one month ago on Instagram.

Oscar de la Renta’s fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear collection kept things pretty neutral, but included grand, intricately designed dresses. A true modern wedding dress, everyone is saying “I do” to de la Renta’s one-shoulder feather gown. The late-designer’s official Instagram account posted a picture of the dress of February 12 saying, “Ethereal feathered frocks are a dream backstage,” and VALLEY couldn’t agree more. This dress is already so popular that acclaimed actress Lupita Nyong’o wore it to the 91st annual Oscars.

Moncler’s fall 2019 collection of puffer gowns in collaboration with designers Liya Kebede and Pierpaolo Piccioli may not have visible feathers, but it’s the inner poof that makes these gowns so elegant and unique. Moncler described the line of colorful and intricately patterned pieces as “couture that connects cultures” on their Instagram, as it is inspired by Ethiopian artisans.
