MARVIN LIVE x NYFW Took Over Silver Lining Lounge for a Night of Music and Fashion
New York Fashion Week runs on optics. February 11 ran on volume.
MARVIN LIVE x NYFW saw MARVIN take over Silver Lining Lounge for a night of music and fashion. The event marked the live celebration of Awsten Knight of Waterparks and the release of the new MARVIN Magazine cover featuring him, pulling the cover story off the page and into a room that felt fully intentional.
Presented by Lippservice, with support from VAST and Audio-Technica, the night was structured around what MARVIN does best: putting music at the center and letting everything else fall in line.
Bec Lauder and the Noise opened the night with a set that immediately set the tone—gritty, loud, and fully engaged with the room. The band’s performance carried a raw immediacy that worked perfectly in the close quarters of Silver Lining Lounge, pulling the early crowd forward and establishing the kind of energy the rest of the night would build on.
Stolen Nova followed with a set that leaned into darker textures and atmospheric tension. Their performance added a different layer to the lineup, balancing the bill with a sound that felt equally cinematic and live-wire in the moment. By the time their set wrapped, the room had shifted from early buzz to full attention.
Waterparks closed the live portion of the night with the performance that anchored the entire event. Centered around Awsten Knight as MARVIN’s latest cover star, the band delivered a set that felt precise but loose in the way their best shows do—controlled chaos, sharp transitions, and a crowd fully locked in. The performance streamed live exclusively on @marvin_thebrand, pushing the moment beyond Silver Lining and into MARVIN’s wider audience in real time.
After the live sets wrapped, Alexa Dark took over the room on DJ duty, keeping the night moving as the energy shifted from live showcase to late-night momentum.
The room itself reflected the crossover the night was built around. Bailey Spinn, Sophie Powers, and Disco Shrine were among the artists who showed up in support, alongside a mix of creatives, designers, and figures from across the fashion and music industries who filtered through the space as the night unfolded.
As the latest installment of the expanding MARVIN LIVE series—following London with Yungblud and Los Angeles with Starcrawler and Taylor Acorn—the New York edition felt just as electric. Different city, same pulse. A room built around real performances, a cover moment worth celebrating, and the kind of energy that only happens when music, fashion, and culture collide in real time.
