Cincinnati Fashion Week May 9 to 15

Neil and I were playing around one night when he had the idea to do a photo shoot of me.  I guess he was inspired by the upcoming fashion week.  I wasn't sure exactly what I was getting into, but I like it when he gets the camera out, mostly because it has a wristband on it that I like to bat about.  I got up on one of my favorite pillows and Neil started taking pictures of me.  He was saying things like "work it baby" and "make love to the camera".  (Sometimes I don't know what he's talking about.)  I do have to say I'm very pleased with the results of my first photo shoot.  See what you think. You'll need to download Quicktime if you don't have it.

Cincinnati Fashion Week founder Nathan Hurst has put together an event of national and international talent to showcase fashion, retail, and philanthropy in the Midwest.  Beginning May 9 there are daily events including a tea with Mary Baskett (a former curator at the Cincinnati Art Museum and expert on Japanese fashion), an evening inspired by graphic design, and the launch of the "Cincinnati Design & Fashion Fund" to retain and grow design, fashion, and retail talent in our city.  All of this will lead up to the Spring Production Finale runway show at the Edge featuring designers from around the world, and the Merchant Fair & Trunk Show on the final day.  It's an entertaining opportunity to further exhibit the next generation of design genius.
