Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2020 is upon us, and true to form, it's kicking off with New York Fashion Week. NYFW is one of my favorites, perhaps due to a slight bias of my love for New York, and the aesthetic and energy NYFW attracts every season (of which I've personally experienced while on the scene back in the day), and don't get me started on the parties.


NYFW is unmatched for many reasons and pivotal to my interest in the whole Fashion Month; one of the reasons is all the expressions of Blackness on display. It has been hailed for being the most diverse Fashion Week, from the Black designers showcasing including Pyer Moss and LaQuan Smith to the models, editors, bloggers, and stylists at the shows. Where other cities' fashion weeks have failed, NYFW gives a platform for Black women to have their rightful representation in fashion, an industry where our influence and contributions are undeniable.

During NYFW, BET's annual Black Girls Rock, a multifaceted celebration of Black Girl Magic, aired this past Sunday, so what better time than Fashion Month to give it up to the Black girls killing the fashion game?

Here are some of my favorite Black girl street-style looks from NYFW:

April is a month to slow down and to fully grasp what has been. The month starts in fiery Aries Season, but we are also in the thick of Retrograde Season as we begin the month as well. Thankfully, Mercury finally goes direct on April 7, after being retrograde mid-March, and communication matters are clearing up. This is a month of mental clarity, a fresh start, and not being afraid to dream a little bigger.

On April 12, there is a Full Moon in Libra, and this Full Moon brings relationship and financial matters full circle. This is the time to let go of what doesn’t make you feel balanced or in harmony and to create space for more peace to enter your life. Venus goes direct in Pisces on the same day, after being retrograde since March 1, and love is healing. With Venus now direct, there are more opportunities for commitment and longevity in love, and there is overall a greater feeling of romance, receptivity, and compassion in the air now.
