The gods as well as goddesses of Mercedes-Benz fashion Week new York were looking over me yesterday as I handled to bolt from the remarkable Oscar de la Renta show (more to find this week) as well as make it in time to pop backstage at Tibi for a behind the scenes look before the show began. The majority of people never go to a fashion show, let alone get to see what goes on backstage, so let me set the mood for you with two words: crazy hectic.
This was my very first season being backstage at several shows, as well as at very first I felt like I was in the way. then I discovered that everybody backstage is utilized to working in an organized chaos, as well as adding one person with a camera phone is no huge deal. I made my method with the area to discover designs in their very first looks as well as was able to see completing touches for hair as well as makeup.
From the hair as well as makeup to the clothing, simplicity was the general theme. Hair was pulled back into low ponytails as well as tucked under, with wisps taken out to provide a more free-flowing look. The makeup was meant to look daily wearable, with brighter shadow as well as a classic, simple lip.
I headed out to my seat only to recognize that I actually bumped into Sophia Bush. Y’all, I am consumed with her. Sophia is my woman crush as well as has been for many years of my unending like affair with One Tree Hill. Sophia is just as gorgeous in person as she looks on TV as well as super sweet. I handled to state hello as well as act as if my entire fashion week was not just made by having the enjoyment of her short acquaintance. I bring this up for two reasons: first, a decent amount of stars went to the show as well as I’ve included a picture I snapped of Olivia Palermo, Sophia Bush, as well as Emma Roberts front row; second, as you can see in my final walk video, I then focused on the front row for an almost uncomfortable amount of time up until the designer popped out for her wave. I’m sorry, she is my woman crush, I couldn’t assist myself.
Now for the show itself: The entire Tibi spring 2012 collection can be referred to as wearable. solid colors provided method to a more grown up Tibi woman with palazzo pants, streaming tops, bermuda shorts as well as trendy jackets. A excellent sense of simplicity as well as refinement took over the runway; it was simple to get lost in the collection. So many pieces might quickly ended up being wardrobe staples since of their capability to quickly be spruced up or dressed down. While there were colors used, most were a bit subdued however not in a tiring method at all. I had many visions of a fine-tuned woman looking both self-assured as well as incredibly ageless sporting this collection. By the end, I discovered myself yearning for more as well as looking ahead to adding many pieces to my spring wardrobe.
