The runway models were gorgeous first-class professionals, the music perfectly choreographed for a top fashion show, and the high ceiling corner of busy street retail space all gave the show panache. Highlights included the first designer spotlighted on the runway, Tracy Suk Designs, with winter and spring wraps that looked like they came from stores along the Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris. The final design shop was the not-to-miss Celine de Paris fashion boutique. Lots of sexy and fun fashions between. Only criticisms of show - it was chilly (turn up the heat - it's February!) and the crowds were smaller than I expected (but it was a Monday and hopefully by Wednesday, the crowds will be larger and the body heat will warm up the space!). I’m definitely returning later in the week on Wednesday or Thursday with a larger entourage of friends (bring your cash, checkbooks and credit cards guys – there are good buys here!), and I’ll give an update on the show. For now, I’m rating the Crystal Couture a B+ and a must-see for anyone into fashion scene.DCPhotoznoreply@blogger.com
