Runway Report: Art Attack

We can’t go see Rothkos and Ruschas up close, so why not make an exhibition of yourself in these Fall 2020 trends

Words and Editing by ALISON EDMOND

 

The Fall 2020 shows were held in New York, London, Milan and Paris back in February and early March, just before COVID-19 began to take hold, leaving us with some memorable runway moments to tide us over until the designers can delight us with their creations once again. Here we round up one of the best fall trends so that we can once more dream of parties and galas, holidays on islands and trips to museums — but in the meantime, make do with the standout looks to wear and share on Zoom, Instagram and TikTok.
