Music Was the Winner of New York Fashion Week

There was no clear sartorial “winner” this New York Fashion Week—no obvious standout trend, no breakout model, no epic rager really to speak of—and this made the entire showgoing experience pretty boring in many ways. But despite the fact that spring 2015 lacked a single takeaway style-wise, it actually made the music better. Designers’ eclectic visions meant that with each show’s soundtrack, you never knew what you were going to get. From DKNY’s random Brooke Candy obsession to Alexander Wang’s pulsating electronica, check out the good, the bad, and the just plain bizarre from this season’s Fashion Week soundtracks below.
