SPOTLIGHT: AFRICA FASHION WEEK NYC 2011 RECAP

My main focus from July 15- 17 was only ADIREE: AFRICA FASHION WEEK 2011!  



In my previous post, I told you, I was interning and would have a full access pass to what is happening on the stage and backstage. The event was taking place in the beautiful BROAD STREET BALLROOM, right across the street from the STOCK EXCHANGE ($$$$)
I was set to help out backstage, check out the fotos:




Then I snuck upstairs, to hair and makeup watching models get ready:





 Just before the models hit the runway, I took some other fotos!!









and F I N A L L Y: the SHOW


The show was such an amazing experience, I can't WAIT until next year. Hopefully, I'll be something specific like a S T Y L I S T or a p h o t o g r a p h e r. Who knows where life will take us!
