Charlotte Ronson F14

“Once Upon a Time” might be on hiatus right now, but its magic lives on, its grip on American pop culture so strong that its influence reached the Charlotte Ronson catwalk.

With Paris Hilton, Nicky Hilton, Jaime Chung, Jesse Metcalfe, Cara Santana, Joe Jonas, Blanda Eggenchwiler, Stefanie Scott, Mariska Hargitay, Zendaya, among others in attendance, Charlotte Ronson unveiled her Fall 2014 collection via a presentation-cum-runway-show at The Hub at the Hudson Hotel on Friday, February 7, 2014.

The background set the mode for romance – flowers around the Charlotte Ronson logo “CR” made from gilded roses. The romantic feel translated flawlessly into the collection.

Sending a predominantly black collection interspersed with gray, maroon, black & gray paisley print and floral neon pink on black, it looks like Alice fell into a rabbit hole. But wait… what is the Wicked Witch of the West doing here? You can identify her with her hat!

In true “Once Upon a Time” fashion, our fairytales are mixed together and most of the time they get along to the point that even the Evil Queen has redeeming qualities.

This is the magic of Charlotte Ronson’s collection. The good girls might turn bad, and the bad girls might turn good, or they might remain good or remain bad. One thing all of them have in common though is that they are sharp dressers, thanks to Charlotte Ronson.
