Spring Into Style The Phoenix Fashion Week Way!

 By Toy Taylor

          

        
       What an incredible evening! First let me say ‘thank you’ to the bright Arizona sunshine for being so kind to us on such a beautiful breezy night. The weather could not have been any nicer for Phoenix Fashion Week’s Spring Into Style event at the Arizona Center in downtown Phoenix. 

This year’s 6 stylists have their own unique trend they will be presenting on the runway. I’m hoping for a few exciting surprises from these stylists. I’m super excited for this show!                                                                                                                                            

The 6 trends debuting 

on the runway are:          

                         Boho                    Denim                                          

                         Floral                   Bold
                         Distinct Prints    Neutrals           

                  
                                        

Vanessa Gonzales kick started the show with a class-A look of springtime in NEUTRALS. 


Femininity at its finest. Crop top paired with lace covered mini skirt and loose tank top with a flair skirt is fun and flirty. Vanessa gave us all day wear for the

office or taking an afternoon stroll through the park. Vanessa herself boasts a more conservative style which she conveyed beautifully on the runway. Gold jewelry against the off-white, cream colors were elegant and rich in nature. What I loved most of this trend is the fact that the entire collection came from Dillards. If your style is one of a classic yet conservative look then you now know where to find it. 

                                            

     


Nuvia Magdahi brought her 

vision of springtime 

and DENIM with a sexy 

haute couture twist 

sponsored by Finally Made. 

Frayed tears and cuffed 

ankles I expected. 
                                            

  

     

What I did not expect was the blazer with the arm slits. 

It gave the appeal of a broader shoulder while signifying 

confidence and power. Paired with Clutch Crowns 

helped bump this trend into a sexier look with an edgy 

feel.

I loved it! It was a fashionable addition to the denim trend. You could take items from your closet and emulate these looks. And I must say…the white wigs were perfect! Great job Nuvia.

Jenesis Laforcarde’s trend was BOHO. I have 

been following this young lady for almost 3 years 

now, and I will say one thing about Jenesis…she 

will go above and beyond anyone’s expectations (I 

think ever her own) and present us with jaw-

dropping awe-inspiring showmanship.

 Endorsed by Kustom Kreations Boutique, this event took the founder of Woman’s Touch Apparel to inspirations of Africa and Indian cultures. Bright bold colors in long flowy dresses were simply to-die-for beautiful. I think I need to make a run to Vintage by Misty in Scottsdale. The accents of henna tattooing by The Henna Shoppe set just the right tone. During the press conference, Jenesis stated her favorite accessory right now are nose rings. She proved just that. 

Thanks to Delbame Jewelry for what I will call the sexiest nose rings ever. Take a close look at the pics. They are a fashionistas dream! 
Of course my favorite part was the belly dancers who

came out mid the-Boho-Jenesis-show and 

worked their magic. I’m a sucker for a good 

dance routine. Jenesis gets a big 'awesome 

blossom'!

Tim Boado brought to the runway Distinct Prints. This was the busiest collection of

 

menswear ever! Loaded with textured-looking prints 

and skinny shorts by Robert Graham are definitely 

going to be on the scene this spring. My fave was 

the deep indigo jean. Such a yummy color! I 

definitely see a hot colorful spring trend in 

menswear this season.

Audree Lopez's trend 

was FLORAL. You’re 

probably thinking what I'm 

thinking...floral, sunshine, 

colorful light and airy. Well 

not today! 


This was probably the most 

shocking of all the trends. We have dark, alluring, provocative, sexy, classy, girly all 

rolled into one runway event. I love the long dress with a thigh high slit. Actually, I 

loved every floral piece shown. This collection blew me away!

                                                                                                                                             Jackie Marin brought in the finale with the trend BOLD. What caught my eye first was the geometric lines within the clothing. The black and red dress with the spikes down the arms was quite funky. Not sure where I would wear it, but it did fit on the runway. 

Jackie says she loves 'standing out' and 'loves 

color'. That passion reflected itself wonderfully on 

the runway. One piece body suits, sexy midriff 

tops and halter tops brought back memories. 

Evening wear with cutouts was very striking. Just 

stunning. Jackie set out to give us a bold trend and 

succeeded.
