The Hit List: Designers to Watch

Every season, we pore over the calendar hoping to divine who the next big designer will be. For spring, Prabal Gurung and Timo Weiland were the breakout stars. For fall, we’re placing our bets on some familiar and unfamiliar names. Project Runway alums Daniel Vosovic and Korto Momolu are both showing their first collections. Coach’s Reed Krakoff is debuting his own womenswear line, while Gary Graham, a darling of the early aughts, is back on the runway. We’re also eyeing the impeccably tailored menswear from Canadian designer Antonio Azzuolo, and the work of Katie Gallagher, who’s been dressing Lady Gaga. Click through for the essential CliffsNotes.
