What are some of the standout trends that emerged during Paris Fashion Week for the autumn/winter 2024 collections?
As we have seen recently, minimalism is all but gone, and maximalism is back; however, even at houses like Chanel, logos weren’t on full display as they have been in the past.
Change and freshness are everywhere. Notably quiet luxury brands like The Row demonstrated elements of creativity, modern silhouettes, and uniqueness, in addition to their already high-quality fabrics and mediums.
To see or not to see: sheers have staying power. On the runway, models often went braless, but beautiful undergarments by luxury brands like La Perla add elegance, interest, and coverage.
Larger handbags are back. Even for evening, micro bags have disappeared.
From your perspective as a luxury stylist, which designers or brands showcased the most innovative and captivating pieces during Paris Fashion Week?
I loved the looks at Chanel, Schiaparelli, Saint Laurent, Stella McCartney, and Chloe, but fashion insiders also talked about Loewe, Diesel, and Miu Miu. For my in-depth interpretations, call or email me!
How did the overall aesthetic and mood of the autumn/winter 2024 collections differ from previous seasons?
Creative directors seem to be embracing the shift for women to enjoy dressing again! It took a while following COVID for people to enjoy getting dressed, and then the trend was all about minimalism. Now, people enjoy putting thought and excitement into what they wear on a regular basis.
Were there any notable shifts or developments in terms of materials, textures, or color palettes that you observed across the collections?
Denim is now a staple in almost every brand. Whether for suits, pants, jackets, and even shoes and handbags, denim is integral.
Leather is also a staple material in almost every collection.
Mixing mediums like leather maxi skirts with sheer blouses is very on-trend.
Statement belts over outerwear add a tailored and polished look.
There is no rule for hemlines from micro mini, mini, knee-length, midi, and maxi, which are all on-trend.
Brown is the new black. Brown is the perfect color for a base piece and can be mixed with pretty much any color.
As a luxury stylist, how do you anticipate incorporating the key trends and styles from Paris Fashion Week into your clients’ wardrobes for the upcoming season?
Although luxury brands are typically on the pricey side, prices have increased in clothing and accessories. I encourage my clients to invest in pieces they can wear in multiple ways, and when they see their closets being taken over by one or two brands, it may be time to visit some newer ones.
I encourage clients to dress in what makes them feel their best. Whether it is a color that brightens their day or a fabric that makes them feel elegant, there isn’t a wrong time.
Take mirror selfies in your outfits before wearing them, particularly when purchasing prints. When viewed differently, clothing prints look different from different angles and at different distances.
In your opinion, what were some of the most memorable runway moments or fashion shows from Paris Fashion Week?
Fashion lovers anxiously awaited to see Chloe, with Chemeni Kamali as the new creative director, and Alexander McQueen, with Sean McGirr as the new creative director. It was a very interesting time for those brands.
How do you see the trends showcased during Paris Fashion Week translating into everyday wear for clients who want to integrate high-fashion elements into their personal style?
Mixing in bold, statement accessories is a great way to add some flair to a minimalist outfit.
Mixing textures and colors was all over the runways.
Chocolate brown is strong as a neutral color for a base piece and tonal dressing, or wearing different shades of a single color lengthens and streamlines the body.
If a client is a true minimalist, a classic pantsuit in a bold color rather than a true neutral would add some interest to their wardrobe.
Dress in what makes you feel empowered. This can mean different things to different people and situations.
Opt for versatile pieces. If you love a brand but are hesitant to invest in multiple pieces, find one staple, like a blazer or skirt, that can be worn in multiple ways.
From a styling perspective, what are some practical tips or insights you would offer to individuals looking to incorporate elements of Paris Fashion Week’s autumn/winter 2024 collections into their own wardrobes?
Invest in a long statement coat that you can wear almost daily.
Introduce color and use brown instead of black as a base color. It’s more modern and works really well.

Are you ready for a stylish adventure? Packing for a trip can be tricky, but don’t worry, we have got you covered. Whether you are exploring cities or the countryside, it is all about packing smart and looking fabulous.
Let’s take a look at the must-have travel essentials that blend style with practicality. So, you will be ready for any photo op or adventure that comes your way. Let’s get started with in-depth details.
Keep It Light and Bright
First things first, traveling light is the secret to enjoying your journey without the burden of heavy luggage. But how do you pack light and still manage to look like a million bucks? It’s simple: focus on versatile pieces that can be mixed and matched to create different looks.
Go-To Travel Outfit
- One Piece Dress
Imagine catching the sunrise at a beautiful beach or wandering through ancient ruins. For moments like these, you need a comfortable and chic dress. A one piece dress isn’t just a space saver in your suitcase; it’s a versatile piece that can take you from day to night with just a change of accessories. The easy-to-wear clothing piece is perfect for those days when you want to look effortlessly put together while exploring.
- Shirts for Every Occasion
As adventurers, we know the weather can be as unpredictable as our next destination. That’s where layering comes into play. A good selection of shirts for women offers endless possibilities.
You can simply pair them with jeans, shorts, or skirts, and you’ve got outfits for days, adaptable to any weather or event. Shirts are your canvas for creating looks that are both functional and fashionable, making them an unbeatable part of your travel wardrobe.
- Leggings
Leggings are a traveler’s best friend. They’re lightweight, stretchy, and incredibly comfortable, making them perfect for long flights, road trips, or just a full day of sightseeing.
Pair this comfy clothing piece with a long top or tunic, and you have an outfit that’s both stylish and practical. Plus, they can easily be layered under a dress or skirt for added warmth or modesty.
- Jackets For All Weathers
A reliable jacket is a must-have in any travel wardrobe. Choose a waterproof and windproof jacket for those unexpected downpours or a lightweight denim or bomber jacket for cooler evenings.
Jackets not only protect you from the elements but also add an extra layer of style to any outfit. Opt for a neutral color that goes with everything, or make a statement with a bold pattern or color.
Choose Comfort Without Compromising Style
Comfort is key when you’re on the go, but that doesn’t mean sacrificing your personal style. Opt for clothing that feels good on the skin, offers mobility, and looks great.
- Fabrics That Breathe
Choose clothes made from breathable fabrics like cotton, linen, or bamboo. These materials keep you cool in the heat and are gentle on your skin, making them perfect for long days of exploration.
- Footwear
Now it comes to the major aspect, that is comfortable walking shoes, which are non-negotiable. Opt for ones that don’t sacrifice style for comfort. A pair of trendy sneakers or supportive sandals can be your best allies on streets or sandy paths. Always remember, if your feet are happy, you can easily enjoy your trip.
Accessorize Wisely
Accessories are the icing on the cake. They can transform a simple outfit into a fashion statement and don’t take up much space in your luggage.
- Scarves
A colorful scarf can add a pop of color to your outfit, serve as a wrap on a chilly evening, or even a makeshift picnic blanket.
- Jewelry
Bring along a few pieces of versatile jewelry to dress up any outfit. A pair of statement earrings or a simple necklace can elevate your look instantly.
- Crossbody Bags
A crossbody bag is the ideal travel companion for keeping your belongings safe and your hands-free. Look for a bag that combines functionality with style and ensures you look put-together while exploring, dining, or even capturing those perfect travel moments.
Additionally, protect yourself from the sun and add an extra touch of cool to your outfit with stylish sunglasses and a hat.
The Final Thoughts
Traveling is about discovering new places, cultures, and parts of ourselves. With these essentials, you’re not just prepared for your next adventure; you’re doing it in style. Remember, the best travel companion you can bring is your sense of curiosity and adventure. So pack your bags, including that versatile one-piece dress and those indispensable shirts for women, and let the journey begin.

What injectable treatments do you offer for men seeking to address skincare concerns or enhance their appearance?
New York Eye and Face offers a wide range of aesthetic injections for men, including neuromodulators (Botox/Dysport), Restylane dermal fillers, and Sculptra.
Can you describe the various injectables available for men, including their purposes and potential outcomes?
Neuromodulator injections such as Botox or Dysport help relax wrinkles in men while preserving a natural, masculine appearance. In addition, some men seek to enhance their jawline with a more sculpted appearance; dermal filler injections can be used to achieve this. Sculptra is another option for restoring volume in the face, by stimulating your body to naturally produce more collagen where it’s injected. For men, it is especially important to see an expert injector who is knowledgeable about the nuances of male facial anatomy for the best results.
Are there specific injectable treatments you recommend for common male skincare issues such as wrinkles, acne scars, or volume loss?
Wrinkles that are more pronounced with facial movement (such as smiling or raising your eyebrows) can be treated by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles using Botox or Dysport. Deeper wrinkles that are present at rest can be improved with dermal fillers, such as Restylane injections. Restylane can also be used to treat acne scars. For more extensive acne scarring, facial resurfacing using a CO2 laser may be needed to remodel the scars. Facial volume loss can be addressed by dermal hyaluronic acid fillers for an instant rejuvenation effect, or by Sculptra bio-stimulating injections, which naturally enhance your body’s own collagen production over time.
How do you assess whether injectable treatments are suitable for a male patient’s skin type, texture, and overall facial structure?
Mild to moderate signs of facial aging in men can be addressed with injectables. More advanced wrinkling and skin laxity are more optimally treated with laser resurfacing and/or cosmetic oculofacial surgery. Botox, fillers, and Sculptra can be used in male patients of all skin types and textures. The key factors for success are product selection and clinical judgment by the surgeon injector. When a male patient’s face has early signs of descent or focal volume loss, dermal fillers or Sculptra can be used to restore structure. Thinner or thicker fillers can be selected depending on the texture of a patient’s skin and their cosmetic goals.
What are the typical recovery times and expected results for men undergoing injectable treatments in your practice?
Downtime for facial injectables is minimal. Patients may experience temporary bruising or swelling, which is more common with fillers than with neuromodulators. Results from dermal fillers (Restylane) are immediate, whereas biostimulatory injections with Sculptra take a few weeks to notice volume restoration as collagen production increases. Fillers and Sculptra may be injected annually for maintenance. Neuromodulators (Botox and Dysport) start taking effect in 3-5 days post-injection with full effect at 2 weeks. Maintenance injections for neuromodulators are performed every 3-4 months.
