New York’s Style Fashion Week was filled with excitement from new designers showing off their beloved work and fashion lovers eager to see it! 23-year-old Andrew Warren did something a little different than the rest in hopes to stand out. Instead of using professional models Warren called on his young and famous friends to walk during the presentation of his line, “Just Drew”.
The show opened up with Little Miss Sunshine’s Abigail Breslin taking the runway by storm. She was dressed in a black leather jacket with small details and an oversized black fur collar. Following her included an incredible lineup such as Tiffany Trump, Kyra Kennedy, Gaia Matisse, Reya Benitez, Elisa Johnson and Dani Lauder. If the last names are sounding familiar that’s because they are. There was a Trump, a granddaughter of Robert F. Kennedy and Estée Lauder and a great granddaughter of renowned painter Henri Matisse.
Warren’s fashion played to the socialite scene represented by his amateur models. The clothes for the Just Drew line featured some exciting pops of blue, beaded gowns and slick geometric shapes on tops and skirts. The line definitely exuded the vibe of a New York socialite girl. So for the girl who wants to dress like she just strolled out of her million-dollar apartment in the Upper West Side this could be the line for them. Perhaps most of his buyers will actually be these girls considering on his website for Just Drew clothes range from $195 for a tank to $1350 for a crocodile embossed leather jacket.

The event for his line “Just Drew” had the feel of the fast paced glamorous fashion world that is all too familiar. Gotham Hall was packed with people eagerly waiting to see what is next for fashion. Whether someone was in the mood for a cocktail or to walk on the red carpet—this event was prepared to impress. Warren has been featured in articles on NY Magazine’s online blog The Cut, DuJour and Nylon for being one of Manhattans young socialites with a power circle of friends.

His entire collection was inspired by the New York City “IT” Girl. One of Andrew’s good friends Lizzy Pergament who was front and center for the action said,
“It was so exciting to see one of my closest friends dream finally become a reality. The clothes are gorgeous and I can’t wait to buy them.”
He clearly has a strong support system behind him helping to heighten his success in new ways.
Actress Abigail Breslin said,
“It was so exciting to walk in a fashion show with a bunch of my friends. I love Andrew and I’m really happy to support him. I am especially glad I didn’t fall on my face!”
