Lady Gaga’s Fashion Debut

The fashion world, already buzzing with the news of Galliano’s sacking, was set a quiver again as Lady Gaga made her high fashion debut in Mugler’s fall-winter 2011-2012 show. After the pop-star announced that she would be in the show via her Twitter account, armies of adoring fans crammed themselves into a gymnasium in eastern Paris. They were not disappointed.

Approximately halfway through the show, Lady Gaga turned up, flanked by bodyguards and swarming with photographers. Fearlessly, she hopped up onto the catwalk and posed for the many cameras before disappearing into the changing area. Her experience as a pop icon served her well for, appearing in all white with a lamp shade hat, she was able to sashay confidently and sexily. In modeling parlance, she was “fierce,” which is more than could be said of her fellow models who gyrated and growled to know avail.

Perhaps the models were not to blame. It has been pointed out that the clothes were also far from inspired. In fact, they boardered on the cliche. Though models are expected to “make it work” no matter what they are told to wear, it must be admitted that the tight vinyl pants, high waisted latex skirts, sheer blouses, and spotted stockings did nothing to make their job any easier. it was so predictable that the models may have been justified in some dismay of their own, which does not lend one confidence before a walk.

Yet, for all that went wrong, the show was well worth a trip into an unfamiliar gym for the fashion industry regulars that attended. No one can now doubt that Lady Gaga has what it takes to excel in the modeling industry.

Split Clothing Returns

After a two year break, the original board-sport brand, Split, is coming back into production with an updated, modern look that is drawing positive feedback from both consumers and the press. Sole ownership of this once $30 million brand was acquired by Life Distributions LLC last May and now it seems to be paying off.

While Split Girls will not come out until fall 2011, the men’s collection is set to launch in the Spring. These collections have traditionally been very different and it seems that Life Distributions has not intention of changing that strategy. The men’s collection promotes the board-sport lifestyle featuring chinos, twill pants, denim, and a variety of jackets from motorcycle leather to trench coats. While the girls line is almost entirely fashion oriented, with strong colors, silhouettes, and artistic prints, fashion has changed its attitude toward girls wearing skate brands, at least a little. It is now acceptable for girls to wear skate brands and not actually skate, or ride, and brands such as Split are doing everything they can tocapitalize on that fact.

It seems that Split, and its new owner Life Distributions, are right where they want to be with new collection. They have managed to bring their distinctive style into the modern world of fashion. They are starting strong with no “basics” (simple, flavorless items that can be used with most outfits), instead opting to make each piece of clothing they sell interesting and stylish. A bold move for a reemerging brand. However, with its track record, and its legion of old customers, it seems that Split is set to do extremely well.

Creating a Fashion Event

Throwing together a fashion show does not need to be as difficult or complicated as it sounds. You need to first, however, determine your intention for putting a fashion show together. Are you a designer or a friend of a designer and you want to show off your new seasonal looks? Perhaps you want to put together a more lighthearted event designed to be fun for the audience and participants.

Fashion shows can also be a great event to raise money and garner awareness for charitable causes. Even if you want to host a fashion show event for fun reasons, adding the element of charity elevates the event while doing good in the world. You will likely attract more people and a greater diversity of individuals to your event if it is dually purposed. Additionally, you can likely get many of your event’s needs donated to the event, or at least heavily discounted, when if it weren’t charity, you would probably need to pay for most of it yourself.

Planning the event location and participants is another fundamental step. You will also need to determine what kinds of labor you will need, including modeling talent. Getting benefactors to model is one way to get donations rolling in as well as using children as models. If you need to use professional modeling talent, find a way to get the models to donate their time or else factor that into your costs.

Advertising is the last key and it is a huge component to hosting a successful fashion show event. If no one attends your event, there is likely no reason to host it. Getting the word out can be easy with a mass distribution of flyers in locales that have high traffic with your targeted demographics. Print, radio, television and banner ads are also options, budget-permitting, but flyers are likely your best option for making your event a hit.
