pARTy Fashion
The 2015 version of pARTy,
the gala extravaganza to
support Phoenix Art
Museum, featured a
’60s vibe inspired by
the “Andy Warhol:
Portraits” exhibition.
Colorful art, posters and flowers were
everywhere, and juxtaposed against
this colorful backdrop were the mostly
black-and-white fashions featured on the runway in an Akris show presented by Neiman Marcus.
The fashions were from the designer’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection, recognized for its monochromatic and modern look,
which plays out in minimalistic designs. There were a few neutrals and pops of color – an occasional purple as well as red
was shown – but black and white ruled the runway.
