Bruce Oldfield Hits New York

Bruce Oldfield is returning to New York next month to show his latest couture collection - the first time he's done so in 10 years. The couturier will be taking orders in a pop-up showroom in Manhattan from March 5th to 7th.

"Many of my existing New York clients have been telling me that the tide has turned there; people are not afraid to spend and feel more confident about themselves in general," Oldfield told us this morning. "As ever, American women tend to go for the simpler pieces rather than over-the-top extravagance - they like quality and high luxury, but it doesn't have to scream at you."

Oldfield is known for dressing a wide range of high-profile women, from Diana, Princess of Wales, to Kim Kardashian and Rihanna. His history with New York goes back a long way.

"My career really started in NYC 40 years ago and I have always been drawn to the almost sporty, pared-down aesthetic, even in eveningwear," he said. "The show will benefit the brand by repositioning myself again with regular returns for fittings and seasonal shows. It will be like having a pop-up couture showroom."
