Mandy Coon
Mandy Coon is a former model, current DJ (she’s one half of Two Mandy DJs) and overall downtown girl. She is also the designer of her eponymous line, and will show her third collection this week. Modeling past aside, she’s got some serious fashion cred. She apprenticed with Camilla Staerk, and Jaime Bochert modeled her last lookbook. Her line has a goth vibe, her colors tending towards black and white and nudish pinks with occasional bursts of print and color, and she plays with texture, mixing leather with gauzy silks with thick knits. Her pieces are drapey and sexy and dark and we can’t wait to see what she’ll do next. We hope there’s another leather bunny bag involved. –Leah Chernikoff
