It is exciting to see many fashion designers returning each season to
show their powerful collections in New York during Couture Fashion Week
at the Waldorf-Astoria. Among the award-winning designers returning this
season were Walid Atallah (Dubai), Amal Sarieddine and Mireille Dagher
(Lebanon), Nedret Taciroglu (Turkey), Sushma Patel (USA/India), Marco
Marcu (Germany), Luis Machicao (USA/Peru) and Romanitza (Romania) who
chose CFW as one of the events to celebrate her 20th year in the fashion
industry. Designers showing for the first time at CFW included Pilar
Macchione, Evgenia Luzhina-Salazar, Romero Bryan, Tammy Duffy, Eredappa,
Giovanni Lopresti and Alicat by Avril Lemieux.
Couture Fashion Week’s Official Hair Stylist this season was the Elie
Esper Salon, and the Official Makeup Artists were Mykel Renner and AOFM
Pro with cosmetics by Inglot. Afterparties and VIP dinners were held at
Nino’s Tuscany Steakhouse and Scarpina Bar & Grill. Flawless luxury car
transportation was provided by Quintessentially Driven.
Along with the fabulous fashions and accessories shown on the runway,
audiences enjoyed performances by such notable entertainers as singers
Christine Reber, Veronica Iovan, Dalal, Michael Raven, Sarah Elizabeth
Charles, Luciano Lamonarca, Gerardo Contino and Cristina Fontanelli
(fresh from her appearance with Andrea Bocelli in Central Park). Also
appearing were Jane Hunt (“The Violin Venus”), pianist Laura Korpa, The
Broadway Dolls, cellists The Monticelli Trio, dancers Kiana & Melia and
the Nika Ballet Company.
A dazzling display area included a $500,000 limited edition sports car
by Alessi Fiberglass and paintings by world-renowned surrealist painter
Michael Cheval. Among other exhibitors were Xais Handbags, Hillcock
Enterprises, Ashmina Designer Knitwear, Laser Cosmetica, American Laser,

The event was covered by a large number of press outlets from around the
