A YEAR IN WETHEURBAN: NYFW STREET STYLE

As 2011 comes to a close, we continue our reminiscent journey of the year with street style photo’s (taken by WeTheUrban) at the ever-so busy Lincoln Center in NYC during Spring/Summer 2012 fashion week. We bumped into fun fashion characters like Marie Claire Fashion Director, Nina Garcia, and trans breakout model of the year, Andrej Pejic, to name a few. Check it out (above)!

A MONTH WITH BRYANT ESLAVA

Name: Bryant Eslava / Age: 19 / City: NYC / Occupation: Photographer

For WeTheUrban’s first “A Month With” series, we will be joining fashion photographer Bryant Eslava throughout the month of December as he so kindly gives us a glimpse into his fast-paced city life where he’ll check back in each week. So join in as we chronicle the much desired and inspirational life of a kid in a big city with a dream. This week - Bryant’s first exhibition:

It’s a pleasure to be apart of WeTheUrban’s: “A Month With”

Last weekend I had my first group show “Take Me Into The Night” in New York City at Trumbull Studio in Brooklyn. It was one of the best moments and one that I will certainly never forget. Not only did the exhibition feature some of my favorite photographers, but the fact that the highly-esteemed Jimmy Fontaine congratulated me, made me feel really accomplished.

Living alone in New York City has been a tough adjustment, but I’m here to live my dreams and make the best out of my work. Every window is a golden opportunity.

OSCAR DE LA RENTA PRE-FALL 2012

Oh how we’ve missed the runway! Earlier today the 58 look pre-fall collection for Oscar de la Renta was held in NYC. Oscar is king of elegant gowns and fabulous details and this collection didn’t disappoint. Giving a glimpse of 2012 Fall collection, the upcoming fashion will be seen at stores in July or August next year. View the full collection here. What’s your favorite piece? We’re dying for these fur vests!

BLK DNM SPRING/SUMMER ‘12 SHOWCASE

Be prepared to meet your new obsession. The new Warby Parker of denim! The other week our newest favorite denim company, BLK DNM, invited select bloggers and figures in different facets of the industry to join them at their art-filled Soho store to enjoy a night of complimentary fittings and champagne.

Created by Johan Lindeberg, the denim brand sets itself apart from others in the sense that it doesn’t conform to typical fashion seasons (with new products launching constantly) and strives to be more online-driven than anything else. The night consisted of a lot of denim talk and guests swooning over how well each various pair of jeans fit each person. If you’re ever looking for some new denim, this is the place to get them!
