Tim Gunn-International Plaza

I went to International Plaza today to see a fashion show that Tim Gunn hosted and got to meet him afterwards with the amazing Susan! How rad! 

The fashion show had designs from Juicy Couture, Lucky Brand and Kate Spade. I got there 10 minutes late because of traffic but I didn't miss much. Below are photos from the event.

Mr. Gunn had some amazing advice for everyone: "Take risks and do everything 110%!" When asked how to get into fashion. He also doesn't believe in chasing trends, "Ask what do I need...buy what you want." Well said Mr. Gunn!

I really loved the Juicy runway collection it showed that they don't just have velour track suits and bags. They really have come a long way in fashion design and I would wear a lot of what I saw today. Minus the price tag of course. They had an amazing trench coat I wanted to rip off the model! But it's $200 (on sale) yikes!

The trench!

I'd wear this in a heartbeat!

I really liked the pop of color in this.

Lucky was a lot more miss than hit. A lot of it had me saying "who would wear that?!" Some of the brand's stuff is okay but I'm not really a fan. They were talking about how you don't have to be a size zero to wear skinny jeans or great clothes, but then they put the woman in some ugly blue sweater that just drowned her and made her look even bigger. I was really disappointed! I know Lucky is all about the boho vibe but I didn't like the way these were styled. It didn't give the clothes justice.

The ugly blue sweater

I only like the jacket minus it being leather

I like the dress but I'd never wear cowboy boots!

This just seemed really comfortable!

I just love these boots!!

Kate Spade on the other hand wowed me! I loved every piece that walked down the runway. The bright pink was really gorgeous and everything was structured nicely.  I would wear it all. What I really liked about Spade's pieces are that most work well on any age and they are transitional; day to night work or play. A business woman could wear the pieces or a 22-year-old college student like me.

To die for

I love all 3!

Love this dress so much!

Of course Mr. Tim Gunn!

I'm so inspired by this fashion show so I'll be making some 'looks for less' so stay tuned!
