LA Fashion Week Spring ‘08: Heatherette
I was lucky enough to go to the Heatherette show at Mercedes-Benz Spring ‘08 LA Fashion Week at Smashbox Studios (wow, that’s a mouth full) last night. The buzz about the LA shows is always so faint compared to the hoopla that surrounds the bigger shows around the world, but I couldn’t have had a better time if I was in Milan. It was a night of celebrities, free-flowing champagne, fancy snacks, free makeovers by the amazing Smashbox makeup artists and, of course, Heatherette. Translation: fun times.
The trends on the Heatherette runway are what you’d expect: mixed patterns (plaid, leopard, floral, picnic table scenes), mega color, overalls, ruffles, big shoes, netting, gold lamé, plunging necklines, baby doll dresses, greased up bodies, beading, orange, one-shoulder, fairy dust, satin beach ball appliqué, and lots and lots of tulle. The usual club kid chic.
Celebrities in the front row and on the runway: Kim Kardashian (who texted and yawned through most of it) and the Gastineau girls, model/”it girl” Corey Kennedy, Robin Antin, Aubrey O’Day, Ross Matthews, Jennifer Gimenez, Jenna Jameson, Kat DeLuna, Daniela Sea, and Lydia Hearst.
