Mount Sinai Benefit/Pamella Roland Fashion Show

One of the many perks of being a fashion student: free access to fabulous fashion shows! Yesterday I was able to attend the Pamella Roland Fashion Show that was also for a benefit for a hospital, Mount Sinai, because some generous, anonymous (thank you kind stranger, whoever you may be!) person donated a couple tables to FIT. It was at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, which I had never been to before, and it was so cool! Very historic opulent. The show was amazing; the garments were absolutely beautiful.

 

Of course I take pictures of food. I love food. The fashion show/benefit was also a luncheon, so here's the food. It was delicious! Especially that red velvet cake...like soooo good.

The Christmas decorations in the Grand Ballroom were so pretty! It definitely got me into the Christmas spirit.

Here's a shot from the final walk! The show really was fabulous, the dresses and gowns looked so flowy and feminine.

In my best Tyra voice, "WORLD RENOWN FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER NIGEL BARKER." Meeting celebs is always a crazy experience! Being the fashion school fangirls that we are, we could not pass up an opportunity to get a picture with the studly judge from ANTM.

Obviously it was a great, once in a lifetime experience. Hopefully there are more to come!

Creative Fashion Presentations : Final Project

So the original purpose of this blog was for a class called Creative Fashion Presentations. We've had other assignments as well, including creating a new line for a brand and a fashion video. I'm going to try my best to keep this up; we'll see how that goes! Below is the video project, or "What Not To Wear: Collegiate Edition." My group took the classic makeover show and gave it a twist, hope you enjoy it!

Fashion Icons: Past and Present

As fashion students - heck, as females - we all have people we look up to and draw inspiration from. Whether it be celebrities, designers, models, socialites - whoever.

Personally, I admire the style of women from a different eras.

 

One is Audrey Hepburn. But who doesn't love her? Her style was so classic and elegant. Her iconic little black dress in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" paired with the gloves and the necklace is something all women wish they had an excuse to wear!

My other favorite fashion icon is Lauren Conrad. Her style is so feminine and girly, and completely flattering. She is an expert at choosing pretty patterns, fun prints, and vibrant colors. I'm obsessed.
