Fashion Reverie loves new talent. And New York International Bridal Week is the ideal platform to showcase new fashion design talent.
Evan Hirsch is one such new talent on the fashion horizon. Fashion Reverie covered Hirsch’s ready-to-wear collection during New York Fashion Week (NYFW) in February. Hirsch has followed up this debut collection with a small bridal collection showcased at the Bo Peep lounge.
“The wedding gown is a major part of a wedding day, but what I’ve quickly learned is that it’s the combined elements: Venue, music, shoes, and atmosphere that make the day all the more special,” says Evan Hirsch. “This was reflected beautifully in the culmination of my first official CFDA New York Bridal Week presentation. I was lucky enough to host my show in the fabulous Bo-peep speakeasy located in the Ragtrader cocktail and highball store,” explained Hirsch.
Inspired by the 1920’s and the decadence that accompanied the Roaring 20s, Hirsch found an interesting way to combine his love of vintage glamour with a modernity that would appeal to the modern bridal consumer. “The wedding gown is a major part of a wedding day, but what I’ve quickly learned is that it’s the combined elements: Venue, music, shoes, and atmosphere that make the day all the more special,” says Evan Hirsch. “This was reflected beautifully in the culmination of my first official CFDA New York Bridal Week presentation.

Similar to Hirsch’s debut NYFW collection, there was lots of ambition and imagination in his debut bridal collection. That said, Hirsch’s debut bridal collection contained more constraint and better garment construction. Still, there was Hirsh’s penchant for whimsical creations and glitzy glam garments.
