Diamonds on the Red Carpet

Natalie Portman and Rosario Dawson have been spotted wearing Kwiat Diamonds on the Oscars Red Carpet. Natalie’s custom-designed hair pin is a Kwiat one-of-a-kind deco-inspired hair comb created from flawless diamond and platinum pieces. I’m a huge fan of Natalie Portman, but I love her even more after she rapped for an SNL digital short. What a classy lady.

Graey Fall 2009 Collection

Graey designer, Janet Kim, held her Fall 2009 Collection at Madison Court this year. It was a fairly small collection filled with very colorful geometric silk chiffon frocks. They’re playful and fun, but I can’t help but feel like we’re supposed to be seeing more useful daily wear clothing. I guess she does keep them at affordable prices though.

Carlos Campos Fall 2009 Collection

Carlos Campos’ Fall 2009 Collection was held at The Altman Building this year. I was cranky because the show was an hour late to start. But, I had the opportunity to shoot backstage and hang out with the models during their down time. Carlos wooed us with lots of onesies, tailored suits, ruffles, cute lacy stockings, and heavy black eyes. The whole collection was dark and sensual, like Catholic school uniforms gone sexy.

Karen Sabag Couture Fall 2009 Collection

Karen Sabag Couture Fall 2009 Collection
Karen Sabag has stunned us with her gorgeous collection titled The Dance with Nature. From bridal to ready-to-wear, I was surrounded by ruffles, beading, chiffon, lace and a variety of the luxurious textures. Her impeccable handiwork was the most wonderful visual orgy of Swarovski crystals, feathers, and beading. She is definitely one to watch.

New York Model Management

I  kicked off the Fashion Week season with my girlfriends, at New York Model Management’s Fashion Week Party at Hotel Grace. We danced by a colorful pool while the champagne flowed like water, and partied the night away with the likes of Tyson Beckford, runway & print models, and the cast of Real Housewives of NYC.
