In London, Duro Olowu showed his beautifully cut collection of dresses, capes, coats, blouses, and crazy-good patterned ponyskin boots in the Mayfair home of his elegant, bohemian pal. This season, he has added a small collection of sculptural fine jewelry—lapis, diamonds, and gold. There were finger sandwiches and tea. His wife, Thelma Golden, was in town to talk politics, art, and Beyoncé. It was a cultured and special moment, which was so needed and so appropriate in a season in which discreet luxury was the Golden Fleece.

The red puffer jacket, crystalled high-neck T-shirt, ski pants, and turquoise bejeweled pumps were carried off in style by Julia Nobis at Balenciaga. That was when the street style mentality of Vetements’s designer Demna Gvasalia coalesced, in a flash—a red-hot moment with Balenciaga.

I think my favorite moment of fashion month came at the end of the Gypsy Sport show in New York, when the entire cast, including one model who was carrying a little baby in her arms, started dancing at the end of the runway. It was as if we were suddenly transported to this spontaneous rave party; people on the front row got up and joined in on the fun, too. It was a nice reminder that a fashion show can be a joyous moment of celebration.

I always like a fashion show with a sociopolitical bent. Rick Owens has been thinking about climate change and the inevitability of humankind’s extinction. Heavy stuff. With such dark subject matter, his trick was to keep things light. When the weather apocalypse comes, I want one of his jumpsuits with the built-in pup tent.

I’ve been pushing the hoodie as an essential wardrobe piece and crushing on Bieber for the better part of the past year. My son and I have dance parties to his album daily. Finding out Demna is a Belieber, too? It’s all making sense now!
