I have worked on this show since it started as Marshall Field's Fash Bash way back when. And I have worked with the same freelance fashion stylists every year, which is always a joy as they are my close friends.
The theme of this year's show was Artrageous. The headliner was Cee Lo Green with a performance by Far East Movement. The fall fashions were from Sonia Rykiel, John Paul Gaultier, Armani, Bar III, Kenneth Cole, Karl Lagerfeld Capsule, Marc Jacobs, Tracy Reese, and Papi (which is men's colorful underwear...yes, male models in very small, very colorful, very tight undies).
The fashions were amazing this show. I absolutely loved the platform shoes from Sonia Rykiel. What fun! And I loved the ladylike looks of Tracy Reese. So chic! The male models looked great in their Kenneth Cole outfits with their pants tucked in their Wellies!! How cute! And Marc Jacobs, as you can imagine, was so much fun!! I liked his looks more than I thought I would.
The other stylists and I were lucky enough to attend the post-party, which is a blast. And it's also a great people watching place. WOW!! People were wearing everything under the sun. You saw major gowns to shorts and jeans. Crazy! Below are a few photos from the party. The first photo is my husband and I. The other one is Robin Overman (freelance fashion stylist and antique specialist, who worked on the show), me, Amy Olson (former Fashion Office Coordinator at Marshall Field's and currently a fashion show producer-she's the best), and Tangee Harris Pritchett (freelance fashion stylist and a fabulous handbag designer...check out her website at tangeeinc.net, who also worked on the show).
It was a fun event to work on but very exhausting. I'm pooped!!!
Enjoy your day!!
