Many of you know budding designer, and fashion power house Rafael Cox as the audacious contestant on Season 9 of the Lifetime Network's hit series, “Project Runway”! Well now Rafael is ruffling more feathers, and making more fashion forward moves towards becoming a force to be reckoned with in the fashion industry.
As an avid leader of the up & coming Atlanta fashion community, Rafael unveiled his Spring 2013 collection to a diverse audience of fashion curators, consumers, and celebrity guest on Thursday, February 21, 2013 at the Defoor Center in Atlanta's hip and swanky fashion and arts district. The show was hosted by local Atlanta, Hot 107.9 DJ Traci Steele, pictured in the promo picture above.
The collection revealed brightly hued cocktail dresses, and gowns that fuzed together some of the hottest trends in fashion for spring, i.e. the peplum, cut-outs and the sports stripe. Hot pink, neon green, canary yellow, and turquoise dominated the color palette on the runway. Which by the way, was innovative in it's own right.
Celebrity Attendees included
Erica Dixon &
Shay Buckey of VH1's "Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta",
Bambi of VH1's "Basketball Wives LA",
Sharlinda &
Kahdijiha Rowe of Style Networks, "Big Rich Atlanta" and recording artist
