How Hannah Porter Keeps NYFW Playful
In the chaotic circus of New York Fashion Week, survival requires equal parts stamina and style, and Hannah Porter has both in spades. The Gen-Z fashion muse spent the week ping-ponging between early morning glam, buzzy front rows, and late-night afterparties, all while keeping her signature playful, youthful vibe intact.
Hannah kicked things off with fittings that felt more like playtime than work. “I love mixing looks together and seeing what feels the most me,” she told us, and the result was a mashup of textures, cheeky prints, and a healthy dose of sparkle.
At the shows, Hannah was a blur of fringe, animal print, and exaggerated accessories that made photographers flock.
Beyond the runway, Hannah reminded us that fashion week is just as much about community as couture. She bounced between catching up with friends backstage, cheering on fellow models-turned-besties, and cozying up at afterparties where the real networking happens. “The best part of fashion week is honestly seeing everyone in one place,” she said.
Of course, no week of 16-hour days is complete without a little chaos. Hannah nearly tripped in her heels en route to one show, but somehow managed to save herself, and the photographers, from disaster.
From plush hotel glam sessions to show-stopping entrances, Hannah proved that even in fashion’s most relentless week, it’s possible to keep things light, youthful, and entirely on brand. As she put it best: “Fashion is supposed to be fun. If you’re not laughing at least once a day, you’re doing it wrong.”
