BLOG FEATURE:
Global fashion show
organiser and model Jessica Minh Anh has picked Filipino designer Joyce Peñas
Pilarsky to join eight other creative fashion houses from USA, UAE, France,
Austria, Spain, Poland, Malaysia, and Vietnam at the international J Summer
Fashion Show on the 30th July 2012 on the Seine, Paris. The
high profile event is part of a series of history making showcases organised by
J Model Management, with two previous international success being the world’s
highest fashion show in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and the first ever fashion
phenomenon on England’s iconic Tower Bridge. The grand 60 metre
long catwalk will be held on none other than the river’s giant glass boat,
Le Jean Bruel, cruising through Paris hot spots including Eiffel Tower,
Notre Dame, Louvre, and Grand Palais des Champs Elysees. Showcasing
extraordinary collections from four continents and welcoming influential
faces from various industries, ambassadors of fifteen countries, and the most
celebrated international press, the show is expected to set yet another
milestone in the fashion world.
With a vision of developing
a whole new fashion show experience, Jessica Minh Anh will create the illusion
that the models are walking on water, by arranging for guests to sit facing the
multi-facetted glass windows surrounding Le Jean Bruel. Thanks to a
360 degree view from the boat, the world’s
architectural masterpieces along the Seine and the 37 bridges will become a
natural backdrop for the grand catwalk. On her decision to showcase
Joyce Peñas Pilarsky’s work, Jessica said “When I saw Joyce’s exquisite
embroidered lace dresses in beautiful colours, I knew she would be an amazing
addition to J Summer Fashion Show. Her collection shows a lot of strength,
sophistication, and elegance of modern women who dare to stand out and make a
difference. The smooth combination of silk and crystals in her many unique
designs makes each piece a must-have creation”.
Participating designers and
brands will sit front row to enjoy the showcase, while the entire production
from models, backstage, to PR will be well taken care of by Jessica and her experienced
team of event coordinators. British fashion leader Paul Costelloe, who is a big
fan of Jessica’s work, has expressed great confidence in the success of J
Summer Fashion Show. "I am definitely amazed by Jessica's creativity and
determination to break international boundaries at another spectacular
location. Her bold and beautiful shows redefined the modern standard" said
Paul Costelloe. Jessica’s previously acclaimed shows have been held at
England’s landmark London Tower Bridge, the world’s celebrity destination The
Savoy, and the world’s highest Sky Bridge at Petronas Twin Towers, Malaysia.
The J Summer Fashion Show
will start at 7:30pm on the 30th July 2012 with a glamorous VIP
entrance before the highly expected one hour catwalk, and end with a press
conference and an exclusive two hour VIP networking party. The show is
supported by Serge Louis Alvarez Paris,
Club Med Gym Paris, Fraser Suites Le Claridge Champs Elysées, Les Folies De,
and Jean Marc Maniatis at Galeries Lafayette among any others.
