The industry is still buzzing over the 2015 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund competition. In case you missed it, Jonathan Simkhai, Gypsy Sport, and Brother Vellies each took home $300,000 last Monday in an unprecedented three-way tie. Sure, everyone is curious to see what they do with the cash—a splashier Fall ’16 presentation? An expanded product offering?—but we’re just as eager to start shopping their collections. After all, now’s the time to splurge on a few winning pieces before everyone else catches on!
