Fashion Week Day 2
You probably heard that First Lady Laura Bush was in town Friday morning for the Heart Truth Red Dress Collection fashion show that kicked off Fashion Week.
She was here, I wasn’t — at least not yet. But I saw the video that played on the big-screen televisions in the lobby area of the tents, where many of the shows are held.
More than a dozen female celebs were on the runway, including Kelly Ripa, “American Idol” runner-up Katharine McPhee, Mary Hart, Oklahoma’s own Kristin Chenoweth and tennis great Billie Jean King. All ages, all sizes and all in red. All wonderful.
Heart Truth is a campaign to educate women that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women. And the red dress symbolizes the campaign.
Anyway, guess who stole the show? None other than Billie Jean. I’m serious. Who knew she was such a wild and crazy lady? She strutted and pranced and used her finger to draw a heart on her chest. And check out her sneakers in the picture. This was must-see TV.
And here’s a little bit of show trivia. Katharine McPhee wore a dress designed by Daniel Swarovski, the king of Austrian crystals. That cute little number (I’m talking about the dress) was covered in 78,000 Swarovski crystals and weighed about 10 pounds.
As far as the other shows goes, trends are still all over the place, but let me just toss out two words: hats and tights. More about that later.
