How I Save the World

I was very privileged to attend Farah Angsana Couture at NYC Fashion Week. Farah Angsana is an established Parisian designer based in Zurich, Switzerland.

Her website has yet to be updated, but a review of a show several seasons ago reveals just how successful she has been in her career. A casual trawl through the Internet will also give you plenty of information about the designer.

The show was held at the Metropolitan Pavilion on 19th between 6th and 7th and organized by Style360. Public Relations were handled by Evolutionary Media Group, Los Angeles.

After more digging, I found out that Style360 is a initiative by Hachette Publications, principally Elle Magazine, and more information can be found out about it on the Elle subsite. There’s yet more information about Farah Angsana and the other designers that Style360 showcased in New York this time round.

On to the clothes. Beautiful, detailed hand drapery, on long flowing goddess gowns, in some light, warm, spring colors. I hope to have some pictures posted soon. Each look had a name, and the two dresses I remember were

(a) this pale olive green, jersey silk gown with a jeweled belt; and

(b) a rose jersey silk gown with straps and detailed embroidery.

The styling was great, the music, everything. The show could’ve done with a lot more people, though. More people should definitely become more familiar with Farah Angsana Couture. The clothes are very wearable, especially for events that need that dramatic touch. So the clothes are quite suitable for red-carpet events and such.

Kudos to her for putting on a great show. Can’t wait for more.
