New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Andy Hilfiger presents ARTISTIX Fashion by Greg Polisseni during New York Fashion Week, this
September 11th at 700 pm. The spring/summer collection, called Evolution, will debut at Kia STYLE360 staged at the Metropolitan West, 639 W 46th St, New York, NY 10036.
Each of ARTISTIX unique collections is inspired by paintings created by artist and owner, Greg Polisseni. ARTISTIX previously showed their Fall collection, based off of the painting Harvest, in February during New York Fashion Week, which quickly created a buzz due to the collection's wearable military-chic vibe. The collection secured ARTISTIX to retail at Lord and Taylor for a second season, while also picking up new accounts like streetwear king, KITH and various other boutique stores around the country.
"Evolution is a reflection of the circle of life. The fluid movement of colors represents, to me, life's ever-changing situations," said Greg Polisseni. "I would best describe the new collection as rock & roll beach wear, which embodies exactly what ARTISTIX is about— art, soul, and rock & roll," concluded the brand's Creative Director, Andy Hilfiger.
The Evolution collection will include 30 original looks and will feature a beach, rock 'n' roll theme. ARTISTIX fashion presentations are noted for their celebrity appearance, their Rock & Roll music, and their high-energy environments.
The back-of-house will open to credentialed press at 6:00 pm the day of the event. The event will also feature a red carpet for VIP interviews and photography opportunities. ARTISTIX will be hosting an exclusive after-party directly after the runway presentation at Hudson Terrace, which will feature music by DJ Cassidy. The show will be cast by Maurilio Carnino at MTC Casting Inc.
