Mercedes Benz Fashion Week 9/6/07-AngelDevil

I wasn't familiar with Angel Devil until I went to their reception/show at the Bryant Park Grill. I got a clue immediately, when these jaw-droppingly lovely guys came out and walked down the runway. How cute is this?

Features, cropped denim, sequins, chains, barely-there, see-through. It was all Sexy, Sexy, Sexy, Rock and Roll, but not too serious. It was rock and roll with a boudoir attitude, with lots of filmy fabrics, lurex, and glittery elements. These are perfect club/party clothes. Wearing most of the designs during the day might get you in a bit of trouble, unless you're in a rock band--then perhaps you can get away with it. But you know what? These sexy, glittery designs were simply FUN! Most of us could take one item from the collection and wear it with something more, uh, conservative and definitely enjoy the feeling. I think the photos speak for themselves.

The Devil Wears Prada and Becoming Jane star Jane Hathaway apparently doesn't always wear Prada....she seemed to enjoy the show, and graciously allowed us to take photos of her with the designers, one of whom is seen here, with an unidentified boy who appears to be holding his nose (trust me, nothing smelled bad in this lovely venue)! She is as lovely to look at in person and in the movies.

The makeup for this show was created by the adorable Rudy Miles for Aveda, and the "BIG" hair (hairpieces) was by Jon Reyman for Aveda. The high energy music was by Deejay Kevin Hedge, who graciously said "just get my best side" when I asked if I'd disturb him by standing next to his equipment to take photos.
