A Betsey Johnson Fashion Show can not be a typical fashion show. When we arrived at Bryan Park we didn’t expect to enter the Tent and find a typical bistrot atmosphere, bistrot table with candles and bottles of wine. Tyra Banks was Chatting with Russell Simmons, Angela and Vanessa Simmons while Katy Perry was playing with her hearted glasses. The theme of the show was a celevration of the Betsey Johnson brand 30th anniversay. Even Chantal her first model was there and walk the runway with Betsey. The collection was a mix of vintage pieces and new creation. Betsey Johnson said: “we even had to buy some vintage pieces that I didn’t have anymore in my archives!”. The collection started with fringed leather jacket, mix-and-match pieces like a twill blazer, a suede wrap skirt, a zebra cardigan, Lurex leopard leggings, and a sexy stretch-denim catsuit. Johnson was surprised herself that her 30 years old ready to wear pieces didn’t age a bit “aren’t these 30 years old look so actual?!”. We agree and we loved the collection, and Betsey’s final cart wheel of course!
