On September 6, cult Finnish fashion brand Ivana Helsinki kicked off New York Fashion Week by debuting their new Spring/Summer 2013 collection, Mourning Sun Motel, at RUNWAY@Pier 57. The collection, which featured their signature exaggerated silhouettes and eye-catching prints, is based on a film shot by designer Paola Suhonen in Finland during this past summer.
