Interview with Lindsy Ray (Model/Scout Wilhelmina Models)

Lindsy Ray, a model/scout for Wilhelmina Models Philadelphia is from the New Jersey area.  She described her style sense as classy, and declares Kenneth Cole as her favorite fashion designer.

The main element that Lindsy was looking forward to during fashion week, was the exposure of Philadelphia fashion week to the rest of the fashion industry.  She also was excited to see the hot new looks for spring 2011.

The biggest issue Lindsy has when shopping for clothing is indecisiveness.  As far as how she would like to see men dress?  "Men should dress clean and sharp.  Just slightly under GQ."  Her recommendation for women would be to wear less of the "daisy dukes," and wear clothes that are more fitted.  Also, showing you midriff is not always the best choice for some, Lindsy advised.

The celebrity whose fashion sense she admires most would be Sandra Bullock.

Marina Makaron Moscow Fashion Show Coverage

As the Marina Makaron Moscow fashion show began, the song lollipop began to play.  No, not Lil' Wayne's lollipop, but the original lollipop song, from 1958.  The song instantly brought smiles to the audience.  Some of the crowd began to sing along, as huge smiles arose on their faces.

The show went on to create that same feeling of being happy go luckiness and carefree youthfulness. "This music makes me feel like a child again,"  one attendee said.  That was my thought as well.  Marina's show carried on the same type of resemblance. The music and Makaron's designs worked simultaneously together as the models began to present themselves in Marina's colorful spring clothing line.

Marina utilized many light colored pastels to perfection.  The line did remind me of multi-colored lollipops, until the jellybean song was played.  I was then reminded of the many unique colors that jellybeans come in.

Many fashion shows exhibit clothing that would not dare to be worn in public.  However, Marina Makaron Moscow's spring line can definitely be worn in society.  The line can be described as cute, classy, fun, and colorful.  A couple of the models even strolled down the runway with stuffed animals, which made the show even more adorable.  If you are a woman, you are definitely in for a treat with Marina Makaron's latest spring clothing line.

Philadelphia Fashion Week Has Arrived

The stage is set for an amazing evening..

 In its sophomore season Philadelphia looks to put the "City of Brotherly Love," on fashion's map-quest.  There is such a need for innovative fashion in Philadelphia and its surrounding bur-roughs.
For one of the largest cities in the United States, it is also one of the worst dressed cities, as referred to by both GQ and Men's Health magazines.  Hopefully, by continuing to promote fashion more frequently, Philadelphia will be able to climb out of its fashion rut, and become a key player in the industry.

Of course many people have their own individual taste and style, many just lack proper fitting and color coordination.  And some just do not care how they look, or present themselves to the public.  

Host, Nicole Brewer gets Fashion Week Started..

However, I believe people do want to get dressed up again.  People want to look like they have a purpose, or have style.  Men want to dress "sexy," or "classy," like their female counterparts.  It is all about taking one step at a time, and Philadelphia has taken that step.  Now it just needs to take a few more.

Philadelphia, are you ready?

Enjoying some good fashion conversation..
