Project Runways All Stars' Korto Momolu At NYFW

No need for introduction, Liberian Project Runway All Star Korto Momolu unveiled her Fall/Winter 14 collection during New York Fashion Week last night. The energy was electric with a beautiful crowd present and a live DJ set. Momolu signs a womenswear collection pairing dark tones, fabric combinations and a feminine silhouette with a hint of modernity. We were however disappointed by a lack of creativity and originality during the show– there was a deja vu sensation. It doesn’t take away from the work provided and the nice looks, but we’d like to see Momolu taking more risks and bring a stronger signature to her brand.
