On Saturday, October 12th, the efforts and planning of Colleen Stovall and Domonique Revere-Lincoln came to life as their event, The Curvy Closets "Pretty in Pink Fashion Showcase" took place at The Crane Arts space in Philadelphia. The place was full of bloggers, models, photographers, vendors, designers, and fans of full figured fashion. The evening began with time for attendees to mix and mingle. Soon after, everyone entered the room, took their seats, and got to see the styles of some very talented designers.

The evening was hosted by model (and designer) Allison McGevna who was very captivating and interactive with the audience.The designs of
Empress Lingerie, K.SY+, Marle Originals, BellaNOR Boutique, Kiyonna, Sean Anthony Designs, Ace Blakley, Elocin, and Marco Hall were all featured. Empress Lingerie's swimsuit designs were very captivating and intriguing while Ace Blakley and Sean Anthony Designs showcased a sense of creativity. A crowd favorite was Elocin Plus Designs, and there were a lot of "oohs" and "aahs" from the audience as their asymmetrical and cutting edge designs went down the runway.

One of the highlights of the evening was the presentation of a check to the charity organization “Hairless 4 Her Awareness.” The show concluded with Allison McGevna debuting her line, TwentyFour20, to rave reviews. I've been waiting to see the TwentyFour20 designs ever since Allie and I touched base at Full Figured Fashion Week in June and she wore a pink lace dress that I loved. The other designs in her line were sleek, stylish, and classy. Allie informed us that the line will be available in time for the holiday season, so be sure to check out her designs when it's time to get that dress for the holiday party and New Year's Eve! Overall, it was a great evening for a good cause and I was happy to have the opportunity to finally meet (in person) so many people that I've touched base with on facebook, instagram, and through here on my growing blog. Congratulations to all of the featured designers and to Colleen and Domonique on a successful event. I'm already looking forward to next year! Until next time y'all. Remember, being beautiful is not just about what you wear!
