It’s safe to say that since the inception of The Brvtalist, we have been fans of independent fashion designer Katie Gallagher. From our early interview to celebrating 10 years, Gallagher has consistently embodied what it means to be an independent designer and has pushed her collections forward while staying true to her brand. Now comes her latest offering, F/W 2020, “The Danger of Tears”, which combines classic Hollywood elegance, minimalism and her signature dark, haunting spirit.
From the designer:
"The Danger of Tears" is my first fully designed and conceptualized collection in Los Angeles versus New York City so, it was a tough one for me. I had a lot of setbacks regarding logistical aspects of developing a collection as well as a lot of emotional difficulty...but it turned out to be one of my favorite collections and one of my best produced collections in terms of construction quality. In addition to the new FW20 styles, I also upgraded pieces from past collections that have become Katie Gallagher staples which was interesting to revisit. Lastly, one of my biggest fears was cleared when I found the right artists to work with me in LA to make it all reality as I’ve become so used to in NYC.
“The Danger of Tears” showed at the Co-Laboratory in NYC 2/9-2/16 and will be showing in Paris during Paris Fashion Week, 2/28-3/6.
