So it was fairly a shock to stroll into Amari Carter’s debut NYFW presentation at The Commonplace Resort and be greeted by the sounds of a gospel choir singing. For Spring 2027, the designer drew inspiration from her childhood days attending church along with her grandmother. The ensuing lineup takes the thought of “Sunday finest” dressing and subverts it by means of sexier silhouettes.
