KCFW FW 17 - BUBBLY AND BOWTIES - A RECAP

Kansas City Fashion Week  knows how to throw a party in style. Bubbly and Bowties is a Black Tie affair hosted by KCFW , before the runway shows kick in. The fashion fraternity of KC gets together, to let their hair down, and they do it in style. A Huge Thank you to the lovely KCFW Committee for such a wonderful celebration. They outdo themselves with every season, dont they ! 

 If you wanted to read more about my Outfit Planning for the night, then you can Click Here. Emerald Enigma was my theme for the night. I decided to style Pantone Color of the Year "Greenery"  in its jewel avatar. And when you have a KCFW Designer - Tiffany Brown of TRBrown , sporting the Emerald trend as well, you know , you are on the right track.

The party was hosted by R24 Studios at the Historic West Bottoms, in downtown Kansas City. Its an artisan crafted furniture gallery. As we walked upstairs, the twilight streamed in through the glass windows and crystal chandeliers, and created such a beautiful play of colors , across the room, with all the artistic pieces. I must say, I was floored at first sight.

The rustling of the evening gowns, the clinking of the champagne glasses and the sound of laughter and gaiety wafted through the air, as the evening rolled on. Cooper's Hawk Winery, Clear 10 Vodka and J Rieger let the spirits flow and Delish Catering wowed us with their small bites. I still cant get over that yummy Deviled Egg. Its a pity I dont have a picture of it.

Huge Thank you to my Blogger Babe Elizabeth, of Blubaugh Blueprints for being my Wing Woman this season, and also sponsoring my ride. It was so much fun doing it together. Cheers to a great season and many more such fun times together.

Dior at Dillards had had their Pop Up Studio and the artists were offering TouchUps. I was having a crazy day with my allergies that evening. And yes, thats also the evening, I had decided to go in with a Black Smokey Eye. Rebecca of Dior was such a darling, and we had a great time chatting up over makeup , as she used her magic fingers to create some contouring magic.

Events become more special when you get to catch up with your friends, and also catch up with new faces. I must say, that I was all set for the Runway shows, beginning the next day !

Stay tuned to the Blog for more KCFW Updates coming soon.
