Fashion Fights Poverty Runway, Seth Aaron Henderson and Luis Valenzuela (preview)
This weekend I was in Fashion Fights Poverty hosted by the wonder woman Violetta Markelou (photographer, makeup artist, event planner, gorgeous woman, etc etc etc) and walked for Seth Aaron Henderson, Project Runway Season 7's winner, and Luis Valenzuela, who teamed up with Tom Bendt (I have to admit I did not know that was THE TOM BENDT ...and I wish I had, before the show was over. i poured over his interior design pictures at barnes and nobles amny times...gotta put a face to the names! = I was also disappointed that I did not recognize Luis at first... and felt completely stupid after), EcoArtFashion founder.
Preview pics for both, and more information and elaboration on the event itself/my experience later! (photog's names are watermarked). But to start off, this was one of the best events ever. Violetta, Matt, Yvette, and so many other people really know how to put on a good show/event, and it was such an honor to walk for Luis and Seth. The models I worked with, met, and talked to were so incredibly nice and beautiful, the makeup artists, hair dressers, stylists all talented. Though there are always complications during these time crunching events, this one was the smoothest ever, and turned out SO well. The venue was well chosen, the runway big enough for pictures, all designers talented, and just all together brilliant. There was even a gigantic shopping cart in the middle of the runway
photogs in this entry are dominique fierro and patrick ryan
Seth's collection was the opening show. I wore this beautiful, body hugging dress with a red zipper in the front

not my real hair, didn't cut it! Seth had all his models wear a black wig
waiting for show to start, i sat next to that in case anything happened...not that i actually know how to use it.

Seth himself

she was adorableee
transofmration process! from waiting to makeup and hair like this,

the most beautiful make up, just blush and pink lips, nothing on eyes. i gotta try this, and learn to use blush (this look was jjust for seth's)


coolest "leggings" ever. they were actually more like super high thigh highs that would hit right under the butt

Luis and Valerie, the hair dresser! Luis closed the event in sparkles=]

the eyebrows!!

Luis' during the final presentation hour =] more of luis' later, I think you'll be astounded. It was glitter and sparkly and just visually pleasing. It's really art to wear
and 1.333 minute long video to wrap up an 11 hour day

were you able to walk in it? lol just curious
in the first pic, are you texting me? ;p at first I thought you actually cut your hair. You would look good with short hair. Do you still plan on cutting it short?
I prefer your real hair to the wig.
Your hair here reminds me of the lead character from Mirror's Edge

@TheFashionableEconomist - walk in which? seth's dress? haha yes! It was tight, but manageable
luis', it's not pictured in my blog just yettt but that was completely walkable
I am close to giving myself a bob though, not as short as the wig! probably a little past the chin

I know how you feel. Once I had all my hair cut off because it was long and shedding like crazy. I regretted it the next day :/ But long hair suits you so well. and you can do braids in your hair! I wish I could do cool braids.
