At Coach’s homage to NYC, New York’s own Ella Emhoff graced the catwalk at fashion week.
Fresh off the heels of her fashion fete at the Democratic National Convention, the step-daughter of Vice President Kamala Harris walked the Coach runway on the High Line wearing an “I Heart NY” tee, a black leather mini skirt and a matching leather blazer, a baseball hat and pointed pumps.
Emhoff, 25, has become a fashion darling in recent years, with her own knitting club — which she has temporarily paused — and has modeled on runways for a slew of designers in past seasons.
At NYFW this week, she’s been in attendance at shows for Proenza Schouler, Tory Burch and Collina Strada, as well as the Susan Alexandra and Rachel Antonoff pooch palooza.
Coach, however, was her first catwalk appearance so far this season at New York Fashion Week.
In addition to an array of playful graphic T-shirts, leather pieces, classic suiting and traditional denim, Coach’s spring/summer 2025 collection also saw a bevy of comically large bags in various shapes — from typical backpacks and oversized pouchettes, to colossal and pillowy clutches shaped like hearts, lips or animals. Some were adorned with charms, words, icons or patch-like embellishments.
“My vision for spring was to show real clothes in a real, relevant, urban environment,” creative director Stuart Vevers said in a statement.
“But we’re redesigning these clothes, keeping in mind the values of a new generation that is discovering these pieces for the first time.”
Some of the pieces highlighted the brand’s (Re)Loved program — a pair of denim trousers or moto skirt, for instance — created from pre-loved garments and give a new lease on life.
“We’ve taken very archetypal pieces and made them unique to the wearer, with the proportions, with the styling, and with very playful embellishments that call into question the idea of traditional ‘luxury,’” Vevers continued.
“I think what’s more valuable today is something that’s personal.”
