Vassilios Kostetsos' Fall 2010 Collection: A GREEK GOD HAS ARRIVED.


Vassilios Kostetsos and supermodel.


Vassilios Kostetsos is an amazing person with good energy. He may be unknown to many here in the United States but in Greece, where he is from, Vassilios is like a Greek God.He's been around a for a while and knows his craft, yet he transpires a youth and joviality in his aura.
We had the pleasure to meet him twice, both during NY Fashion Week.A sensitive & humble man with vivid imagination, creative flair and a sense for beauty and silhouettes, Vassilios is passionate about his art. He takes the time to speak about his art to the press & media, and is simply happy to be able to show his collection at Bryant Park during NY Fashion Week. But he has more to be proud of. Vassilios designs with his heart and soul. In an economy where Designers create more sober and simple clothing, Vassilios was able to transport us into time, creating a fantasy world where everything seemed more dramatic and dreamy. Bravo to Vassilios, he should be proud of himself. He put together a gorgeous Glam Rock Fantasy collection that is eye-candy and daring.

Academy of Art University FALL 2010 Collections



What a fantastic show!!!!

Never underestimate the potential of young Designers for they may become the next new Designers! Today the Academy of Art University exceeded my expectations. Several of the pieces were Genius!!! Like the name says it, these young designers are creating pieces of Art. The School of Fashion may have taught us more than a few tricks this week.

About the Academy of Art University:

The Academy of Art University (formerly Academy of Art College), a proprietary, private university owned by the Stephens Institute, was founded in San Francisco, California in 1929 by Richard S. Stephens. With an enrollment of nearly 16,000 students[1], the academy is reportedly the largest art and design school in the United States. This is also the school of choice for Lauren Conrad when she decided to get her education in Fashion.

On Saturday, February 13th at 3:00 PM, six womenswear collections from the Fashion, Knitwear, Technical, and Textile Design programs were presented in The Tent at Bryant Park. The Academy of Art University showcased the talent of the following promising emerging designers: Marina Solomatnikova, Bethany Meuleners, Hyo sun, Steven Oo, Naomi Sutton & Sabah Mansoor Husain.
