Styling' Woman Within

Woman Within is the name of the Fashion Label that created this beautiful dress I'm wearing today.  I was full of pride and confidence knowing beautiful African Queens were dancing around on my dress. 

Designer Inspiration- Africa Fashion Week LA

I was truly inspired by all the contemporary designers showing at Papillion Institute of Art in Downtown LA this past Saturday for Africa Fashion Week LA 2012.   However, Bishme Cromartie was my favorite. ( see his collection here)    (My favorite pieces pictured above and below with my iphone 5).  
I really look forward to attending fashion shows to see how contemporary designers use fabric, fit and proportions to express themselves.  I especially loved how Bishme used creative lines from basic shapes to create unique silhouettes.   Check out other pics from the show, follow me on instagram @MalaikaPaul.
