Emerging Designer: Charlotte Hess


I feel so fortunate to have witnessed the winner of the 2011 Charleston Fashion Week's Emerging Designer competition, Charlotte Hess, send her line down the runway on Friday night. There was passion and unparalleled talent that went this smoking-hot knitwear line that was evident to the entire crowd as they roared in approval and appreciation.

Highlights from Charleston Fashion Week:

BRIDAL SHOW STYLING
Modern Trousseau
Being a fashion-obsessed individual, I have found plenty of opportunities to see fashion shows over the years. None, however that make me more proud to be a "southern gal" than Charleston Fashion Week. Out of everything I saw, the styling from Modern Trousseau in the Spring Bridal Show that was held Saturday afternoon were my absolute favorite.  
Modern Trousseau 
According to Charleston Weddings Magazine, "Modern Trousseau and the line's nationally lauded designer —Callie Tein—is known for classic, elegant gowns." I loved the beautiful gowns, but I was totally inspired by the Breakfast at Tiffany's themed styling with the hair twist, bright-red lipstick, large black sunglasses, pearls and opera-length gloves. Some of the models even had little tiaras just like Audrey!
