The Main Dining Room of the restaurant was transformed into a pink garden where trees were installed and hundreds of pink flowers hung from the ceiling and wrapped around the custom Bernadaud chandeliers. The show producers made smart use of the shallow rectangular, wide space as the venue was not designed for a long narrow runway. Models entered through a floral arch towards the center of the room, turned a sharp left getting close to the audience before turning to the right side of the room and making an exit through a separate door. The choreography was near flawless.

One of the exceptional looks was a red corset bodice A-line dress with floral appliqué accents. It’s sexy, intricately designed and bold. Another lovely silhouette is the blush strapless gown with layers of embroidered Italian floral lace paired with ruffle shawl. The transparent shawl provides a touch of modesty. The pale green tulle maxi dress with spring flowers, sheer green shoulder shrug is a mix of eye-catching sensual dress, while covering the arms at the same time.

Naomi Campbell wins Icon of the Year award at Harlem's Fashion Row 2024

On September 3, Harlem's Fashion Row celebrated their 17th annual runway show and award show, with their "Night of the Legends" fashion show at Grant's Tomb in New York City. Other publications focused on a couple sharp comments that were made on stage; however, this article focuses on the praise expressed by fashion giants Anna Wintour - who has been serving as Editor-In-Chief of Vogue magazine since 1988; and supermodel Naomi Campbell - who won the 2024 Harlem's Fashion Row Icon of the Year Award.

Ms. Wintour stated, "Naomi's bravery has benefited the entire fashion industry." Anna Wintour did leave the event before Naomi Campbell arrived due to a resulting time conflict. Those in attendance witnessed Samira Nasr - Editor-In-Chief of Harper's Bazaar, graciously and skillfully make an impromptu introduction for Ms. Campbell. 

During her speech Ms. Campbell said, "I just want to thank Brandice Daniel and your entire team of Harlem's Fashion Row...your commitment to elevating diverse voices in fashion is dependable". As Ms. Campbell expressed her thanks to Anna Wintour for taking a chance on a young black girl from South London and giving her a shot, she went on to say "...I thank you for your influence, and your continued support, and pushing fashion forward also."

2024 collection, at 1010 Park Avenue on February 13, 2024 during
 New York Fashion Week.

On Tuesday February 12th, couture fashion designer Zang Toi presented his Zang Toi Fall Winter 2024 collection during New York Fashion Week. The runway show was held at the Park Avenue Christian Church located at 1010 Park Avenue. The collection paid tribute to Mr. Toi's late brother Toi See Luon. Mr. Toi was inspired inspired by Parisienne Chic Couture with a touch of rebellion seen in the Saint Germain neighborhood of Paris.

Saint Germain des Prés is a neighborhood in Paris located "Left of the River (Seine)" or as the French say Rive Gauche. The area is part of the 6th arrondissement, which is just south of the Louvre Museum. It has a bohemian vibe and one of it famous cafe's is Les Deux Magots. By design, the backdrop to this fashion show was a black and white photo of an empty table with two chairs, two tea cups, one muffin, a bouquet of flowers and the Eiffel Tower in the background.

The main colors of the collection were red, black, grey and some pops of shocking pink. A scarlet cashmere/silk turtleneck jumpshorts, with a sequin & crystal tulle ballskirt stole the show. The long sleeve top covered the upper body fully providing a conservative touch; while its form fitted cut created a seductive silhouette. The flowers on the skirt added a fairytale-princess like cuteness. 

In keeping with the spirit of stately chic, a charcoal English wool tweed cape made its stealthy yet powerful way down the catwalk. Not too many women can wear a cape and look cool, however Mr. Toi paired it with a black turtleneck jump short that gives it range and wearability  for all age ranges of women. Confidence and separation from the common was the message transmitted as the modeled gleamed down the darkened runway. Zang Toi created another elegant, couture collection.

Muscle, hustle, and escape were three themes that played out during New York Fashion Week: Men's Spring Summer 2018. It was a celebration of flesh to go along with a sense of travel, luxury, and ease. Some examples were the Nick Graham "Atlantis" collection, Parke & Ronen, and the General Idea fashion show. Each label had a menswear runway show that was held at Skylight Clarkson Square, located at 550 Washington Street in mid-July.

Was the city of Atlantis real or just a myth? That question was asked along with the importance of climate change in a video before the Nick Graham Spring Summer 2018 men's fashion show. The collection has 28 looks ranging from deep blue to red. Ropes serve as belts, with life sized lobster, crab and sea horse pins echoing the aquatic message. The clothes are great resort-wear and look perfect for a cruise. The breezy shirts and light suits scream fun and leave the idea of work one million miles away.

Fashion designers Parke Lutter and Ronen Jehezkel presented 50 outfits for their Parke & Ronen fashion show. The "collection draws inspiration from the lyrics of John Denver's song Rocky Mountain High, with an emphasis on the lyrics "serenity of a clear blue mountain lake". Further "...the Earth, nature and unique beauty of Rocky Mountain summer's led us to a create a collection inspired by the idea of Americana as seen through rose colored lenses."

Creative director Bumsuk Choi also appears to pay homage to the earth's natural elements with his latest General Idea collection. Fire could be represented with his use of reds, water with blues, grass with greens, land with camel, and the sun with yellows. This 33 look set of men's fashion, like Nick Graham's was sprinkled with a handful a womenswear pieces. Some models walked the runway rolling or holding matching suitcases, which made to feel of travel all the more clear.
