In her first  and second seasons at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York, designer Katya Leonovich drew from a wild array of inspirations for her work, which was widely praised for its bold, colorful view point that exploded with passion.  The inspirations themselves "American Football" for Spring 2012  and "New York's Flatiron District" for Fall 2012 felt like fresh starting points with equal amounts of whit and whimsy for a designer on her way to become a major force in the industry.

Leonovich described the inspiration for  her coming collection to Style Wylde as:
