The Burghalie Resort NYFW Competition
Newest Fashion competition on the scene.
Burghalie!
One of the newest names that has been popping up in the fashion and modeling industry. Founded by Rashaad Burghalie. @iamrashaad @burghalieacademy @Burghalie
Burghalie and The Burghalie Academy is an organization focused on helping designers and models connect with industry professionals and gain opportunities.
During this years NYFW we had the privilege of attending The Burghalie Resort Fashion Competition. A Fashion show where designers and models competed for funding, brand shoots, campaign shoots and more.
The show was refreshing in the way it delivered so many different perspectives. The show displayed some traditional and abstract fashion, but really highlighted more streetwear and protest art/fashion. These were pieces I could truly see the average person wearing day to day. One of our favorites being @Humblesociety. One model strutted a jacket by @MusebyMonet that stated “ the revolution will not be texturized”. This piece felt like it was for the people, a homage to the revolutionary OG’s. @modamuneca showcased a transformative hooded dress that went from short and casual to editorial cover page in one swift motion. Another model served afro-couture in a green, pink and black sequence number by @Adanotaja that gave pure Red Carpet Energy (RCE).
The show even featured @beautifully.diverse.fashion all the way from Australia! Our favorite piece from there collection being a vest and checkered short set worn by @ibbie.aro.
Overall these designers really put an emphasis on fashion for the masses. #Luxurystreetwear
These designers gave us art but lets not forget models like @ibbie.aro, @tristacottrell, @faithii_e, @callmedeija, @arii.bella and Jason Liverpool brought it to life. They were fierce, they were poise, and they made you want to rock the fit. It was clear that Burghalie is on track to become a household name in fashion, hence their new partnership with Mac Cosmetics. what a huge accomplishment for the young organization.
Let’s not forget about the dressed to express audience that showed up to show out and even model. Some names like @Mimi Faust, and @Aliyahsinterlude came out to support, maybe we will see them in some of these designs soon.
Burghalie is surely a brand and organization to keep your eye on as many Burghalie designs, designers and models emerge onto the fashion scene.
Can’t wait to see what they do next.
