Grandeur Fashion Galore Part 3 - Scroll’n Arts, Griff and Latouche and Olin Edizione

So Saturday night’s show was much longer than the average 7th Avenue fare - they only feature one designer at a time and run no longer than 20 minutes.
After the first three designers showed…there was a intermission with a buffet dinner…quite nice and needed considering the open bar. Fashiona makes it a point to never misses an good opportunity… free or not.
Scroll n’ Arts works as team: Jordan is the graphic artist and Joseph and Imani are the designers. Partnerships are somewhat common in fashion but trios are still pretty unique. And make no mistake… these are not just jeans and t-shirts. The graphic are very detailed and even graphitti worthy. The dark jeans are screen painted and in some cases coated in resin.
Griff and Latouche appeals to those people who are not afraid to make a statement and Fashiona feels that their clothes speak for themselves.
Kenneth Olin II was the last designer to show Saturday night and his collection Olin Edizione was well worth the wait. He believes that “every woman should look and feel special” What a surprise… so does Fashiona!!!

Fashiona thinks Day did a lovely job on her first major fashion show shoot…don’t you
Ahhh! Thanks Fashiona for giving me the opportunity to explore my second love, photography. I took my job very serious that night, so I did not take advantage of the open bar. But I did with the buffet.(Skinny Chick gota eat.) LOL! I had a great time, thanks again.
