Oh Yeah, Fall has started nicely...

I attended a few events related to the various fashion week goings on back in September. This year was the first time I went to Philly Fashion week. I landed at the Cocktail chic event to check out the runway presentations of Strangefruit, Melody Thomas (of Project Runway) and a special menswear presentation by Banana Republic, styled by Kevin Parker, Founder of Philly fashion week.

The Strangefruit and Melody Thomas presentations left me totally flat. I didn't really have any expectations as I wasnt familiar with either line- I was simply an eager spectator and well the previous sentence sums it up.

Banana Republic was well Banana Republic and Kevin did a nice job of putting the looks together, see below, and the model selection was nice too.

I met with Kevin and at only 26, he has been producing the fashion week for the past 5 years, which is truly impressive. He and co-founder Kerry Scott have truly put together a beautiful production of shows and events.

Next year I will be looking forward to checking out the couture presentations. Kudos to Philly!
