Who knew the first month of the new year would be so eventful? Blackmen Magazine, Todays Black women magazine, and Hype Hair magazine are some of the most popular magazines for men and women of color. And on January 14th, 2012 they held their Couture fashion show in New Jersey, New York city.
I was honored to join the girls of Chacha cosmetics and hairstylists backstage of the Marriot hotel Ballroom.
The room was jam packed with more then 30 models, designers, photographers and of course racks upon racks of couture suits and gowns.
Between makeup applications I got the chance to spy around a bit. In the lobby, there were vendors showing off their hand made soaps and jewelries, and hair products. I found the most amazing bracelet and shoulder piece for my jewelry collection.
The designers made sure all the models were fitted with their gowns. And in the ballroom they practiced their runway walk.
After 5 long hours the models were finally ready to walk the cat walk.
Designers included Nevets Couture, and Willie Hall Couture. All the models looked amazing, and the design were out of this world!
Working in New York was a great opportunity for me, special thanks goes out to Aisha Chacha of
Chacha Cosmetics and Photographer
Glenn Parson for the runway pics. After all was said and done I finally got the chance to enjoy the bright lights and big city. What`s next for Mrs Makeup? You`ll just have to wait and see.
