Students from Gibbs College thrilled the packed Amity Teen Center with an exciting show!

The makeup artists did a cool job pulling each look together.

Before the show I checked out some of the fashion sketches that were on display.

This past Thursday, June 19th, we cruised down to Woodbridge, CT to check out Gibbs College's students' spring fashion show. When we arrived at the Amity Teen Center, it was tough finding a parking spot...and we were early!

The entrance to the show was clearly marked!

Once inside, the music was lively and the scene was perfectly set for fashion to explode onto the runway. We grabbed our seats and I perusing a copy of the premiere issue of BRAG Magazine that I picked up at the door. In addition to spotlighting three up-and-coming designers and "The Gloves are Off" student fashion show held this past November, the magazine provided Gibbs's students the opportunity to showcase their many talents. The entire staff was recuited from the student body--everyone from the writers and editors to the graphic designers, stylists and photographers right down to the models! I was very impressed, and I couldn't wait to see what would be coming down the runway.

Before the show, I spotted Daniela Vlad in the audience. She is one of the talented designers featured in the Premier Issue of Brag Magazine. She also had some great stuff in the show! You can check her out at www.danielavladcouture.com.

Once the show got started, it was nonstop action. I loved the variety of styles--everything from vintage and classic to urban and edgy!
