Diverse Designers at Nolcha Fashion Week 2012

Held simultaneously with Mercedes-Benz fashion week, Nolcha LinkFashion Week gives independent fashion designers an opportunity to showcase their new and exciting looks for the upcoming season. The most recent Nolcha runway event, held February 9th, 2012 marked eleven seasons and almost six years for Nolcha Fashion Week. This year, for the first time, the event was held at the Ailey Studios by Lincoln center.

The featured designers had diverse cultural backgrounds ranging from Turkey, Greece, Puerto Rico, the United Kingdom, the Philippines, Italy, Guatemala and different regions of the United States. A portion of the 3:30pm runaway show featured two Latina designers Rebeca Tiago and Charlyn Castro-Rojas, which drew the support and attention of celebrity Adrienne Bailon. Adrienne even attended the Nolcha event wearing a stunning dress by Rebeca Tiago. The popular 6:30pm runway show featured Italian designer, Danilo Gabrielli, whose collection blended elements of both rustic Italian and luxurious American styles. In support of Danilo, a celebrity appearance was made by LuAnn de Lesseps from Bravo's The Real Housewives of New York. LuAnn's attendance to Nolcha Fashion Week may even appear in an episode of the television show.

An inspirational element to Nolcha Fashion Week this year was the introduction of Glocal's "Coleccion by Kem Ajachel" which is part of a mission to help educate and empower women in third-world countries. This beautiful collection included pieces made from silk, rayon and cotton materials handmade by women in Guatemala.

An exciting day came to a close with an elegant 9:00pm runaway show featuring Seckin Ilker's gorgeous formal wear and bridal selection. A combination of the new venue, diverse spread of designers, unique new looks and celebrity appearances made Nolcha Fashion Week 2012 quite the event!

The FDA is going after General Mills for claiming that Cheerios is "clinically proven to lower cholesterol" without getting approved as a new drug. In a letter to General Mills, the FDA says that the labeling on the Cheerios boxes is "in serious violation" of federal rules and that Cheerios, " may not be legally marketed with the above claims in the United States without an approved new drug application." The letter further states, "Based on claims made on your product’s label, we have determined that your Cheerios® Toasted Whole Grain Oat Cereal is promoted for conditions that cause it to be a drug because the product is intended for use in the prevention, mitigation, and treatment of disease."

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are on the cover of the April issue of Vogue. Their photo on the largest U.S fashion magazine created quite a stir on social media when the cover photo was released over the weekend.  Many Vogue readers were upset at the choice of West and Kardashian on the cover and I began researching high profile celebrities that have never been on the cover.

Barack and Michelle Obama have been welcomed everywhere they've been so far in this European tour. The Public Relations face lift for America that most expected to get when they elected Obama is happening right before our eyes. America 's allie's citizens seem relieved that it looks like the US wants to cooperate with the rest of the world, after 8 long years of destructive and stupid Cowboy talk. Technological advances in telecommunications and travel have made the world a much smaller place. It is essential, now more than ever that the world figures out how to work together proper. That is what Barack Obama seems to be reflecting to us at home and the rest of the world. How much easier will it be to have Russia and China as actual allies instead of Frenemies. They might handle North Korea instead of us and the Russians migh
