The show featured some Retro Stars such as Jamie Bochert (who opened the show), Emma Balfour and Christina Kruse. Rising Star Brazilian beauty Aline Weber closes the show.

The collection itself was a major Fashion-Champloo. A crazy mix of looks and pieces from diverse periods such as the late 1800's Victorian,early 1900's Paul Poiret and Gibson Girl, 1940's looks of Rosie the Riveter, 1950's emergence of American Sportswear a la Claire McCardell.

Fabrics were a mix of plaids, florals and abstract prints, but all in fine fabrics. Accessories featured prim hats, lots of bangles/bracelets and sandals/open toed strappy pumps. Make up and hair was minimal, almost bare and natural.

I personally am COVETING the shiny tote carried by Raquel Zimmerman in look 18.

On the Style.com you can read a great review of the show and see the complete runway collection via this link. View the closing of the show, on the Ford Models Community web page, via this link.
