Mark and Estel's 'Stairway To The Stars' Fall/Winter 2015 Collection


One of my favorite shows this season was Mark and Estel who brilliantly combined music and fashion into an unforgettable collection called ‘Stairway to the Stars’. This is also the name of one of the songs Mark and Estel made while making the new collection. 

This season Mark and Estel sent spectacularly long capes, lots of cool plaid variations, bold graphic print blouses, jumpsuits and flowing dresses down the runway.

Mark Tango and Estel Day are both fashion designers and music artists. Combining their passions, they create fashion and music under one name Mark and Estel, the band and the brand.

Mark and Estel made fashion and music history as the first fashion designers ever to perform their own songs live on the runway in September 2013, during their RTW debut at Mercedes- Benz Fashion Week, New York. 

Their fashion collections are created to be wearable versions of their music, and they create and perform all of the music for their runway shows.

Of course this season was no exception as Mark and Estel performed one of the coolest post show performances that I’ve ever seen!

Mark and Estel’s Sneak Peek Party For Their ‘Stairway to the Stars’ Fall/Winter 2015 Collection


Mark and Estel, the rock star designers of their namesake brand held an epic party dubbed ‘bubbles & bites’ for editors/bloggers to get a sneak peek of their new Fall/Winter 2015 collection before it hit the runway a few days later at Lincoln Center. This was one of my favorite fashion week memories by far as I’ve never had a chance to see a designer’s collection BEFORE its official runway debut.

I was equally excited for a chance to meet the famous designer duo, Mark and Estel. Both were exceptionally sweet and had such a cool rock star vibe about them. They are the kind of people you wish you could spend hours and hours with as they would always keep you endlessly entertained.

Mark Tango and Estel Day launched their fashion brand “Mark and Estel” in Los Angeles in 2005. Made in the USA, the Mark and Estel fashion line boasts signature fashion tees, flowing dresses and iconic cut-out leggings alongside ready to wear jackets and separates. The duo’s rocker style and love of music signaled the simultaneous launch of their band “Mark and Estel,” and their fashion/music hybrid quickly became their brand signature. 


In 2009, Mark and Estel garnered further recognition when they custom made their ‘Ripped & Holey Leggings’ for Lady Gaga on her Fame Ball Tour. Mark and Estel’s rockerchic yet incredibly comfortable silhouettes continue to count fashionistas and sporty girls as their customers, alongside music and fashion celebrities including Kendall Jenner and Kelly Osbourne.
