MIAMI URBAN FASHION WEEK
OCT 7,8,9
INFO TBA
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
October 17, 2005, Los Angeles, California-The Urban Fashion Week is
proud to announce the great success of our event in beautiful Miami,
Florida. The event was set in motion in South Beach on Thursday October
6 hosted at the luxurious penthouse suite of the Nash Hotel. The early
part of the evening gave our top male and female models a chance for
beguiling and distinguishing photo opts. Later in the evening we jammed
to Miami's own DJ NVOUS Styles at the intimate, very cozy Ultra Lounge,
off of Hwy 1 Biscayne Blvd., Miami to the early morning.
Friday night’s extravaganza was hosted by Billy Bad Ass and Miami own
hip hop artist Jackie O, with her super sexy panache, she kept the crowd
popping and animated all the way to the finish. Initially we had
planned for two shows going on simultaneously with an elite outdoor spot
light, the weather conditions changed these plans but the show and the
partying went on as scheduled with 45 flawless models that gave a clinic
on what walking a runway is all about. Friday's show featured the
exiting, refreshing clothing lines from premiere designers Meezan,
Rosita Hurtado and Billy Bad Ass to name a few. The after party at
Teaser had a very eclectic vibe and special guest Rsvping ....Missy
Elliot and the whole Slip and Slide crew ( shout outs). The patrons
consisted of a cool fusion of people returning from Thursday’s night
event and many of the trendiest partygoers from the South Beach scene.
Toccara from America’s Next Top Model exclusively hosted Saturday’s
night party, she also took her turn strutting down the runway, not once
but twice showing the other models she still had what it takes. Rosita
Hurtado took the limelight this evening with her superlative red carpet
dress. We closed the night with one of many standing ovations. Many
debated that the second night was even stronger than the first night; I
guess you had to be there! Behind the scenes everything moved at a
hectic pace, even UPS added to the chaos by delivering some over-night
deliveries to the wrong venue, had us asking, “What had Brown done to us?”
All the models, designers, our special Guest and friends from the show
came out to “pop bottles” and celebrate the first official Miami Urban
Fashion Week.
We now look forward to the March installment of Urban Fashion Week-
Miami to be more pompous and exhilarating than our fall review. Please
come to www.Theurbanfashionweek.com to see the various faces of elation
of the models and guest( pictures launched on Oct 19th) . We had so
much fun words can hardly describe the emotions felt. A little note to
the many haters who did everything in there power, drunk on “haterade”,
to put a damper on this event, thanks for all the “drama”, Fredrick
Douglas inspired me to believe that “without struggle there is no
progress”. Remember next time “things which matter most must never be at
the mercy of things which matter least” Thanks to Danielle Photography
for all those hot shots featured on the website, the stylist at All
Dolled Up Salons you guys did your thing, Black Star Security thanks for
holding me down gentlemen, George Duke from the Opium Group for
