FUNKSHION RECAP

it's taken so long for us to post this week but between both our busy schedules and weekend preparations, things have gotten a little bit crazy. Here it goes...


Last week was Funkshion Fashion Week, which mostly took place in the  middle of fashion and art...Wynwood Art District. I got introduced to Funkshion Fashion Week once I was attending Miami International University of Art & Design aka Ai in Downtown Miami. I used to sign up to help out dress all the different models for all the runway shows and I always had a blast. When Andrea and I scored some Press passes, we flipped! I was able to attend all events last Thursday- Friday but Andrea could only attend Thursday nights events due to work. It's okay though. I still got some really good shots of some of the shows. Each bathing suit line was unique in its own way and If i had to pick a favorite, I don't think I would be able to. It's funny how much you learn going to these types of events.... I hope you guys enjoy :)

  1. These are amazing pictures! I got press access too, but I was only able to go to the media event at Bolivar and 2 of the shows on Friday. My best pictures are from Haiti a la Mode. I wrote about it on my blog too: http://bit.ly/GLBffwmb. I wish I could've run into you guys! Maybe next time :)
