Chadwick Bell Spring 2010 Collection

The Chadwick Bell show evoked a modern, ethnic, earthy style to us at Whom You Know, attending our inaugural show with this designer; he has been a Mover and Shaker:

Neutral colors and strong elements of texture enveloped the collection that mesmerized the audience. The energy in the room was accentuated by the clear natural music that provided perfect background and did not resoundingly dominate unnecessarily as some shows do. The styles we saw gave us a feeling of empowerment for women which is how we all want to feel in the spring as we emerge from our winter shell.

This collection we characterize as: clean, fresh, dewy, sexy, and confident. The draped styles in some looks reminded us of the Greek and Roman galleries at The Met – in the Fashion tour narrated by Sarah Jessica Parker that we wrote about in preparation for fashion week:

Peachy Deegan liked the Golden Finch Dress the best – strapless with jeweled accents. This show was a winner!

Fabulous job by LLR Consulting- we are always so impressed with Laura's talents!
