The model line-up at Richard Chai: Love was off the charts this season. With a mix of all-star names like Hanne Gaby Odiele, Frida Gustavsson, Jacquelyn Jablonski, Heidi Mount and Alana Zimmer and fresh faces like Ruby Aldridge, Anabela Belikova, Ming Xi and Shu Pei Qin the show was like a breathtaking army of top models. While it admittedly took us a minute to get over the incredible line-up, we were pleasantly surprised by Chai’s collection filled with sheer fabrics, structured jackets, and a neutral color palette. The minimal hair and make-up and mellow sounds of Arcade Fire’s latest album only further emphasized the delicacy of this collection. But mellow was the last thing we felt after seeing a number of our favorite models take the runway on Thursday. ~Sonia Evers
