Every Product Meredith Marks Uses to Get Ready For Fashion Week Shows

As New York Fashion Week's latest season descended upon Manhattan, the industry's most prominent designers unveiled collections that offered a glimpse into spring 2025's forecasted trends. At the Badgley Mischka presentation, color, texture, and beaded embellishments were the themes du jour, embraced both on the runway and by the event's attendees - including Meredith Marks.

The "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" star stepped out for the occasion - which was held at Greek restaurant Periyali on Friday, Sept. 6 - in an iridescent blue gown. The striking number was accentuated by unique design flourishes like a cinched waistline, one-sleeved silhouette, and deep neckline that gave the style a more airy appeal. Marks smartly styled her look with knotted silver Bottega Veneta heels and a structured clutch for a welcome contrast.

"What really inspired me was how this dress reflects the refined glamour that Badgley Mischka is known for, but with an edge that feels very personal to me," Marks tell PS. "I love how the collection played with vibrant colors and sophisticated silhouettes, but this piece stood out for its striking balance of structure and fluidity."

Marks's lively ensemble embodied a coastal, Mykonos-inspired vibe; it felt like she was ready for a yachting excursion around the Greek Islands. The duo behind Badgley Mischka, Mark Badgley and James Mischka, drew inspiration from similar themes in order to build out their Spring 2025 collection.

"We started thinking about Jackie Kennedy Onassis on board the Christina O (Aristotle Onassis's infamous super-yacht), and how they would just have the most amazing summers cruising around the Mediterranean," Badgley tells PS. "And all the beautiful women that were on board at the time: the movie stars, the socialites, and their whole posse of amazing people."

As for the collection itself, Mischka explained that they sought out to redefine "cocktail attire," with pieces that are appealing and versatile to younger consumers. "A lot of [the collection] is our classic sort of looks, but we discovered our customer wanted a different way to look for evening; we started to do fun cabana sets and rompers in precious fabrics so they looked important and couture."

Getting ready for a NYFW show - especially one as glamorous as Badgley Mischka's - is no easy feat. Ahead, Marks breaks down what went into prepping for the fashion presentation. From eye-catching As heels to caviar, keep reading to see what she used to bring her look to life.

Diaper Shorts Are Back - How to Shop the Controversial TikTok Trend

Of all the street style trends to dominate our FYP and social media feeds in recent years, bloomer shorts seems to be the most bizarre (and ironically one of our top favorites) yet. And who do we have to thank for it? TikTok, of course. In a single scroll on the popular app, you've probably come across the piece multiple times, from those viral Miu Miu briefs to Aritzia's more affordable offerings. Slightly more flirty and risqué than the stomach pudge dress or the fisherman aesthetic , bloomer shorts (aka "diaper shorts") have officially made it to the top of the sartorial food chain. What Are Bloomer Shorts? While the idea of bloomer shorts may seem new or daunting at first, they're far from groundbreaking. Similarly to most trends, the good ol' "everything is new again" concept applies here, as the fad dates back to 1850 when the silhouette was invented as a practical solution for women's health and comfort - eventually grabbing the atten...

Does Uniqlo Heattech Really Keep You Warm? An Editor Investigates

I live in a perpetual state of being cold. Whether it's 70 degrees or below 17, you're bound to find me wrapped up in a blanket at home or venturing out with a jacket in tow. Growing up in Arizona hasn't exactly prepared me for how to navigate cooler temperatures, which is why I often rely on heavy layering during the winter months to keep myself feeling warm. In the past, this has translated into me dressing like Ralphie's younger brother from "A Christmas Story" - think chunky snowsuits, a double-wrapped wool scarf, and so many layers I'm hardly able to breathe (let alone move around). It wasn't until I was introduced to Uniqlo Heattech gear that I realized lightweight, movable thermals exist. Uniqlo's Heattech line is arguably one of the brand's most popular collections. Loved by shoppers for its wide variety of styles, the capsule boasts warm, insulated pieces that are designed to replicate the effectiveness of a thermal layer without the...

I Wore Sofía Vergara's Viral and Divisive Sneaker Heels - and Actually Sort of Loved Them

Despite what some people may think, the return of sneaker heels - largely attributed to Sara Blakely , the inventor of world-renowned Spanx, and now Sneex - happened by accident. "Our founder did not set out to create a sneaker heel. She set out to create the world's most comfortable high heel and this is where the innovation led her," a brand rep says. Not only are they supportive, they add noticeable bounce to my steps, which actually makes walking in high heels sort of . . . fun? Nevertheless, merely one year in, the company can report that The Tepper in Silver ($595) sold out in just 24 hours after launch and accrued an 11,000-person waitlist. One-third of the brand's customers have already invested in a second pair. And celebrities from Jane Fonda and Sofía Vergara to Reese Witherspoon and Suki Waterhouse have already been spotted wearing them. "The Sneex customer is responding to sneaker heels because they want height and wearability," the S...
