Palm Beach Fashion Show

Palm Beach Fashion Show

Among the winding oceanside roads of "Million Dollar Row," The Palm Beach Fashion Show opener was held at the fabulous Mar-a-lago, Trump's playground. This private club sits atop a marvelous golf course, features luxurious details in every nook and cranny and is absolutely enormous.

And who was there? None other than the Trump himself and his wife. Palm Beach's elite came out in droves to enjoy fine dining, fine fashion and high society.

The evening began with black leotard clad dancers covered head to toe prancing about the stage in Hamilton Jewelry. It followed with Donald Trump's Signature Collection, which was conservative yet classy. And the men modeling the fashions were certainly top notch.

The women strutted their stuff in the Rene Caovilla collection--sexy, see-through and sensual. Ooh la la. This designer is wonderful choosing both '60s reminiscent mini fashions and '70s reminiscent maxi to add retro style to her flowing dresses.

Also featured: Amanda Adams, Hamilton Jewelers, John Medeiros and Neil Bieff

They had a wide assortment of mostly petit fours for dessert following the show.

Before the show, they held a slient auction (all proceeds benefitted Alzheimer's Community Care), which included mostly fine jewels and Palm Beach perfect hats.

"New York's Emerging Artist" Laurance Rassin had a display up of his fine abstract art and had models from P-Models strutting throughout the crowd in fashions that held the same designs as his paintings. To get a peek of some of his looks, visit www.laurancetheartist.com.

Amrit Resort was also there. They are doing pre-construction on a property in Singer Island that will combine Aveda therapies and products and the mentality of the Himalayan Institute. The result is an escape less ordinary. It opens in about two years.
