June 29

Today was packed with four fashion shows that we were invited to - two that we all went to and two that we chose from. Our first show was Antonio Miro at 10am. It was in a hotel, and the crowd was small. Their collection was inspired by Latin America. One of my favorite looks was a hot pink shirt, light pink jacket, and gray and white striped trousers. The pants were all cropped and rolled at the bottom. The colors in this show were much different than the others we've seen because they were bright and there was lots of color.

I skipped the Masatomo show at 3pm in favor of the Juun J show at 4pm. I really enjoyed this show. It was in the same parking garage where the show I dressed for Veronique was, but this time the set was plain, without the pretty bushes and flowers. The models wore pretty conventional looking suits, jackets, cardigans, and trenches, but the looks were undone. A jacket would have one arm in and the other sleeve hanging, with the front buttoned. Or a cardigan would be completely off the arms and just hanging from the waistband of the pants. Some of the outfits were made that way and some were just styled to be that way. There were cropped pants again in this show.

At 8pm, we went to Songzio show called Blackout, which was in a gallery. The models mostly just wore black (a few white) shorts and vests, or sleeveless jackets, with a couple of printed t-shirts mixed in. The gallery was really small and some of the photographers were actually getting in the way of the models. The set-up was terrible, but the clothes were okay.

Today concludes the menswear shows, so it's on to womenswear tomorrow! We are going at 8am to usher for the Yves Saint Laurent show, so hopefully that will be exciting.
