FMA fashion week - Malene Grotrian Design - Day 4 part 2
October 22, 2010
…………After a brief intermission, a performance by singer Sara Lynn turned our attention back to the runway where we were treated to a fashion show by Malene Grotrian Design. Grotrian has been receiving increasing attention, especially since showing at NY Fashion Week last year. This evening she unveiled her 2010 F/W collection to an appreciative crowd. Structured holiday fabrics in darker colours with pops of red and electric blue created great silhouettes. The high-end couture aspect of her line was a great way to close what was a very successful first showing for the new FMA format.

FMA fashion week - Queen of Jeans - Day 4 part 1
October 22, 2010
The final evening of FMA Fashion Week was packed with two runway shows and two muscial performances. First up this evening was the Queen of Jeans. This company designs form-fitting, high quality jeans that flatter and enhance a women’s best asset. Designed and created by woman for women. My favourite look during the show was a pair of jeans that sparkled with a gold glitter detail. Following this first show we were treated to a number sung by local rising star Jerrica Santos who rocked the stage. We were all left wanting more………..

FMA fashion week - Kiss and Makeup - Day 3
October 22, 2010
Day 3 our attention was soon to be turned to make-up. Vancouver’s Kiss & Makeup boutique has been intimately involved during the FMA Fashion Week as a sponsor and one of the on-site pop-up shops. As well, Kiss & Makeup makeup artists, Sarah Noriss-Jones and Rachel Rossitter designed the make-up for all runway shows this week featuring Becca Cosmetics exclusively .
The boutique took centre stage on day three with their very own tribal chic inspired fashion show styled by Lisa Relling. The show featured fun and functional garments by Fluxus, Society for Rational Dress, Onward into the Future, Dace, Cynthia Vincent, Sienna Ray and more. It was fun, flirty and enjoyable to say the least and there were several pieces I’m sure flew out of the pop-up shop after the show. The scheduled part of the evening closed with a musical performance by Keylee Johnston, but attendees continued to party late into the night.
