Its going to be tons of fun! So comment away folks!!!
My first foray into Lincoln Center for Mercedes Benz Fashion Week was great. Well, except for the usual credential pick-up, which was as long as it usually is :-). Frankly its to be expected considering the number of people who are trying to attend these events. Anyway after a 40 minute wait, I got my passes... had to skip viewing my surroundings as my son decides he is hungry and Christian Siriano show goes out the window...sigh. I heard it was really good too! We'll return in a few hours :-)
Anyway, Number : Lab was my first stop. Never heard of them? Well they are a menswear designer well known for advanced sportswear. Think of your windbreaker with extra features, or the swimming trunks with just that little bit of oomp to it :-)!! Anyway, they had their presentation at 640 W28th street. I saw a very slim and trim Perez Hilton in a hot studded jacket! Go Mr Hilton!!! The show started with a bicycle polo demonstration which was kinda different. Defintiely some great pieces for the sports enthusiast, but my stand out piece was the lightweight suit shown...oh well , ok and mr abs in the fierce swimming trunks.
Our next stop was to the Farah Angsana Spring 2011 show at the Studio - Lincoln Center. Love love, love the new venue (see my comments on the tents again at stylepantry dot com) A lot of gorgeous pieces. I was very very impressed!!! Lots of embellishments, which I loved.
But my standout favorites were the green draped silk chiffon, swarovski crystal and gold embroidered long sleeve Kebaya mini dress...it just needed to be a tad bit longer! Fabulous pictures are on the other site.
Here is Jumoke Gbadebo and my son! Both Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Newbies!! Juggling mommyhood and work as always!!
Gotta run...there's always tomorrow!!!
