Designer Review, Opening Night of Full Figured Fashion Week

Full Figured Fashion Week™ was truly an extraordinary showcase of talent from designers from across the country.  Here is a review of the designers featured opening night.

The Angel Alternative
Designer Angel Myers, hailing from Florida, entered the stage in a fabulous floor length dress remeniscent of the 70′s. That same theme was reflected throughout the entire collection.

Who said curvy girls can’t wear prints? Coupled with these figure flattering designs you can’t help but want to flock to them.

 For having just started to design professionally, Angel’s line was cohesive and fluid. The ease of each piece and comfortable fabric choices makes this collection ready to wear, by me!!

Pure Energy

 Designed by Angelina Mortarotti, Pure Energy is a collection of fun, flirty designs that cater to the teen fashionista and the young at heart. What I loved about this collection was the versatility. You can easily dress up or down several pieces, making them a staple in your summer wardrobe.

Kiyonna

I was really looking forward to seeing Kiyonna showcase their latest designs. You  can count on Kiyonna to deliver elegance and sophistication. They certainly did not disappoint.

Just My Size

Just My Size.com is your one stop destination for affordable clothing ranging in sizes from 1x to 6x. Each piece displayed was under $20. Now that is  just my price!

Chan.nel Karama, Ltd.

 I just couldn’t get enough of Chan.nel Karama! The words that come to mind is Urban Sophistication! She brilliantly paired harsh and soft fabrics to give you a strong, approachable collection.

LaDan’s Closet

You will be very hard pressed to find outerwear that is more figure flattering and tailored than LaDan’s Closet. Based in New Jersey, this collection included capes and coats in bright colors that compliment any outfit.

Drapery

This was an innovative collection that had a touch of whimsy. With exaggerated sleeves and oversized bows, you truly were inspired by these fantasy laced pieces.
