#7 TRUNK SHOW- OSCAR DE LA RENTA

 A Trunk Show is a showcase of upcoming garments from the designer current season collection. They are displayed in a showroom for retailers and sometimes customers. They are allowed to try on the garments and purchase them.  Above is a video from Oscar de la Renta trunk show at Nordstrom. In the Interview with Gregg Andrews (fashion creative director of Nordstrom) he explains how the trunk show works and how buyers proceed to putting chosen garments in stores. I really like the blue and black strapless gown that was shown at 4:50.

#6 TORY BURCH FALL 2012 RUNWAY

      So I came to the conclusion that one  the Tory Burch fall collection is one of my favorites. She always brings something fresh and classy with a twist. i love that she always brings out a unordinary color every season. I find her garments and shoes to be very adaptable to every age group, which I think is fascinating.  
        I really liked the hair and make up for this show i thought it was retro and classy . I thought that it was clever she brought back out the french roll, because I remember seeing my mom with that hair style in the 90's. She had this cute concept of "The nice girl, who meets the wrong guy". It was a good idea being that it gave understanding to the colors she used . There were the basic black, and neutrals . I also saw some dark fuchsia , blues and greens, with a splash of red.

#4 TRICKLE UP/DOWN


 The article i selected was written by Eric Nelson february 14,2012. He was giving his insights on the Vera wang fall collections that caused alot of controversy. I actually liked the two looks that were futuredin the article; the first one being my favorite. i thought it was funny Jean Rivers was outside assaulting guest after the show, while flipping out her sheriff badge.
