BEST IN SHOW: Dan Liu Romances Femininity (And The Crowd) At NYFW

Dan Liu was inspired by Parisian lifestyle and romance for his latest collection, entitled “New Path.” He presented elegant and chic cocktail dresses that will take a woman from the workplace straight to happy hour. The designs feature pieces that flow; classic a-line silhouettes, lace overlays, intricate details, and more. The models wore fun, glittery butterfly tattoos on their faces. To add to the ode of romance, Dan Liu sat in a Parisian chair, giving each model a rose and gifting attendees in the audience with roses as well. Click through the gallery to swoon.
