New York Fashion Week: BCBG Max Azria

Los Angeles–based BCBG Max Azria went with the flow at its Sept. 8 show during Olympus Fashion Week. The contemporary brand showed flowy frock after flowy frock in a variety of fabrications.

Long, iridescent gowns in dusky hues featured swaths of laser-cut flowers to resemble lace. Hippie-dippie housedresses looked fresh and showed lots of leg. Youthful silhouettes included plenty of baby-doll dresses, butterfly sleeve tunics and slouchy jumpers. Even pants featured easy fits, including white high-waist trousers with wide legs.

The collection offered punches of bright color, lemon yellow, chartreuse, red, oxblood and tangerine. —Erin Barajas
