Chloe Comme Parris Backstage fall 2011

Today was the fall 2011 show at lg fashion week and needless to say it was anything but boring!
My feet are killing me, my mind can't believe it all happened, and well I feel short not modelesque. On the other hand today was full of hustle and bustle and crazy running around. From grabbing hundreds of heavy magazines in heels to changing models in a hurry today was amazing.

There were only a few moments today that I had to stop and think. But a few non CCP moments stand out. One was "no big deal Jennie Becker is only a few feat away from me..."
Another was "wow I've seen a lot of naked boobs and butts today..."
and another was "this guys body suit is nuts, oh wait he's in a thong and painted and I'm 3" from his bare butt..." p.s. that was NOT part of the CCP show, but the crazy show afterwards.

After the show there was a hustle and a bustle and an eviction from backstage as the next show had to get ready. The press was in a rush to invterview Chloe and Parris Gordon, and Andina, Lache, and I were in a rush to get all the garments, bags, shoes, scarves, jewelry, and models out the door. Only one pair of pants went missing but were recovered... FROM THE FLOOR!!!! There was no shoe mishapps or nipslipps. One crystal sash broke, but most of the pieces were recovered. The volunteers and dressers were amazing, special thanks to Kay! Awesome girl who stepped in and helped with whatever needed helping all day long! Also special thanks to the two dressers who were smiling, laughing, and making us all happy.

So far only a few photos are up but I'm sure in the days to come I'll be able to find some that I'm freaking out in the background of.

Metro News said " Sisters Chloe and Parris Gordon brought the hardware and offered up some skin-baring looks steeped in basic black and neutral tones as they unveiled the latest designs from their Chloe comme Parris label at Toronto's LG Fashion Week on Tuesday.

Gleaming, oversized buckles served as stylish, if unexpected, adornments, fashioned as epaulettes on coats and fastened on hems of shorts. Jangling, shiny silver clips dangled from loose black threads fastened on cosy shawls and wraps.

Beyond the sky-high front slits, the designers took a more peek-a-boo approach to their featured separates, baring hip bones on some pieces while flaunting oversized keyhole cutouts on slender-cut short and pant hems.

Contrast was the name of the game, from dual-toned jackets to sleeve and back panels of breezy shirts constructed from sheer panels. They played amply with proportion on shirts and tops, which featured exaggerated, elongated tail hems that rippled delicately as models strutted down the runway."
