Fashion
weeks in four countries just wrapping up with a bang. Designers showing Spring
2013 collections in Paris, New York, London, Milan and Paris.
As a cable
news producer, I don't get a lot of experience in the world of fashion. That
changed this year, when I had an only-in-New York moment . I got to see a
fashion show in the #NYFW events at Lincoln Center in New York City. It was the
Chado Ralph Rucci show, and it was quite a spectacle.
Ralph
Rucci has been designing for more than 30 years. All Rucci's clothes are
designed, developed and made in New York City, and he's been called an American
couturier.
The
collection was heavy on new and innovative materials in crowd pleasing
combinations. The designer featured bright colors including neon pink, orange
and yellow. Among the celebrities in attendance were Paula Abdul, Martha
Stewart, and octogenarian supermodel Carmen Dell'Orefice.
Socialite
Tatiana Sorokko helps to run the Serge Sorokko art gallery in San Francisco
where Rucci will be showing his paintings later this year. Sorokko, a model and
Rucci muse in her own right, was also at the show. She called it "one of the
best collections of the season. He is true to his fashion vocabulary of extreme
luxury and elegance."
Just a
great chance to see a little New York City magic "behind the scenes."
