CHSFW10 – Gwynn’s VIP tent

VIP1

Every night of #CHSFW10 included a stop by the Gwynn’s VIP tent. Our good friends at Momentum PR worked the room all week. Those ladies made sure all the Charleston fashion lovers were comfortable and enjoying the festivities.

The only tent with food featured crabcakes and shrimp salsa from Lowcountry Bistro, 82 Queen and Swig & Swine. Dj Big Hair played lots of reggae music as fashion lovers enjoyed the open bar’s selection of Vodka, Bourbon and Champagne.

 

At the rear of the room hung a large screen where the runway show would be displayed. Great option for someone who wants to enjoy the party but isn’t that big into the fashions.

We were draped in IBU movement pieces to add flair to our all black ensembles.

As such, we were eager to see the collection on the runway. The culturally inspired line was modeled by ethnically diverse models and lead by Charleston musician, James Harris.

Taxidermy handbags were complimented by lingerie from Bits of Lace Charleston and sexy heels from Shoes on King. Amy, owner of the luxury handbag company, Taxidermy, outfitted us with an animal skin clutch and tote that garnered quite a bit of attention. The beautifully fit models bared their skin while modeling signature snakeskin purses. Very sexy.
