yes, I know it happened a while ago but I'm blogging about it now. I hope that none of this goes against the confidentiality clause I had to sign when working backstage at a few s
hows at New York Fashion Week this past September but the reviews have been up for months and the collections made public too. What I'm posting is nothing that people have not seen before...
The Karen Walker show was the first runway show I did that season. I wasn't particularly familiar with the New Zealand designers work prior to it; it had never been of much interest to me. I can fairly say that this collection changed that. The Spring collection was filled with swingingly loose cut paper-thin chiffon that almost looked as if it was swimming across the body and included prints ranging from birds and clothing pegs to floral. The bright orange popped up in a lot of looks and the hard-edged yet appropriately neutral Beau Coops platform pumps were my favourite aspects of the collection. As well as the model you see above and previously in the orange skirt; Barbra. Absolutely gorgeous, hilarious and completely born to be in front of that camera.
Working at Naeem Kahn was exciting since it was the only show I worked at that was taking place at Lincoln Centre under the famed New York Fashion Week tents. The collection was absolutely breathtaking in terms of beadwork and draping and it was filled with delicious tropical colours and prints. Everything about his collection including the hair and jewelry was big and bold.
But honestly, one of my favourite things about being at these shows was working with the models. Runway models astound me. They are these otherworldy creatures who are basically perfect and I just adore them. I will never be one of those people who thinks that there should be fuller-figured girls on the runway. Runway models need to be tall and skinny. Simple. The same way a surgeon needs to be lucid and accurate. Its just how it should be. The girl above was absolutely gorgeous in person and a total sweetheart.Source URL: http://emmeppi.blogspot.com/2011/11/mercedes-benz-fashion-week.html
