Last week was Pittsburgh Fashion Week, I made it to three of the shows! It was a great experience and I gained an unreal amount of inspiration to continue my studies for the week. The first show I went to was “Macy’s Fashion Rocks” on Wednesday night, it was hosted at the Macy’s Fifth Avenue Location in Pittsburgh. The 4th floor was completely rearranged with a stage and runway sprawled out in the middle of the floor.
I had the opportunity to assist the MC of the show, and style her accessories for the evening. Not only did she do a great job with the event, her look was on point too! The show featured numerous looks available at Macy’s this season along with sneak peak designs from students at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, who had their own show later in the week.
Again I was able to capture some photos on my iPhone of the event. There was so much excitement and energy, these pictures don’t do justice.
This look was designed by Art Institute Pittsburgh Student, Leesa Kassler. The pants were amazing, a light cotton with a metallic gold shimmer over the pattern. The designer did an perfect job with the fitting!
My new obsession is flash tattoos! If these were permanent, I would probably consider getting one. Compliments of Macy’s everyone who attended could apply them and be dazzling! I chose a feather to compliment my arm party! Also how cute is this Picks for Peace Bracelet! It is perfect to stack and there is a great cause behind it!
My amateur styling at work!
If you ever have the chance to attend a Pittsburgh Fashion Week show, I highly recommend it! There is an unreal amount of talent in this up and coming city!
