Last week was a busy week for me hosting many events for the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising and their DEBUT festivities--including the Debut 2013 Educators Luncheon, emceeing the L.A. Open House, making an appearance at the Fashion Club Debut 2013 Pre-Party, as well as several Debut Fashion Shows.

On Saturday, I had the honor of being invited--along with my NIKOLAKI partner David Paul--to the FIDM Debut 2013 L.A. Fashion Gala at Santa Monica's Barker Hangar. This is the "fancy" version of the previous days Debut show I hosted. It was a black tie event (well, at least for me!) that began with a "Cocktail Hour", followed by a sit-down dinner, a presentation of Scholarship trophies and then, the Debut Fashion Show! Here are some pics of the VIP'ers in attendance:

FIDM Debut 2013: ten (sometimes more) graduating students of the Fashion Design Program are chosen for the Debut--where they get to work for approximately 10 months on creating a collection--from sketch to drape, pattern, to cutting and sewing--and then present it at this fabulous Debut; it's their "debut" into the industry! Here are samples of this year's designs:

Cheers to another FABULOUS Debut Fashion Gala!

Security!!! Naturally--as it has become tradition--I had to get one final photo with the wonderful Barker Hangar/FIDM Debut Fashion Show Security Team--they are THE BEST in the business! I had a great time attending the FIDM Debut 2013 L.A. Fashion Gala, along with David, and congrats to all the FIDM Debut designers for such fabulous work! Until next year! xoxo
