"Charlie Mack" 2012 Party 4 Peace 2nd Annual Fashion Show Coverage
By: Akia Jones
A bevy of Black Hollywood where out in the City of Brotherly Love this past weekend in support to encourage non-violence amongst youth in Philadelphia.
Headlined by Blockbuster actor and Overbrook native Will Smith, alongside son Jayden “Charlie Mack Party for Peace” 3 day jam-packed events consisted of a formal dinner, a talented teen competition, comedy show and fashion show (which this“fabbeasta” was in attendance).
Philly native Charles “Charlie Mack” Alston is a producer/ entrepreneur who is most creditably known for producing the 2006 film “ATL” and being longtime friend/aide to Will Smith amongst other notoriety.
Hosted by actress Kyla Pratt and the outspoken “What’s the tea”, “Mutha Knows” from Philly’s Power 99 Morning Show, the show was star-studded as much as entertaining.
For a minor 30 bucks, Philly fans got a chance to mingle and great with celebs “Lil Mama”(rapper) , Tamala Jones(Booty Call), Sheree Whitfield (Real Housewives’ of Atlanta), Fazion Love(Friday) and Philly’s boxing champ Bernard Hopkins amongst others.
This year’s designs featured styles from Purple Planes, Cha Cha, Passion Arts, LOADB and Carmente, all expressing a fashion love story of bold prints, bright colors, polyester, chiffon, leather and lace.
With celebs seated on both sides of the runway, they seemed in ahh of the designer’s innovative choice of fabrics, classic poised looks, funky psychedelic patterns, evening wear and edgy street designs. This year’s fashion show definitely solidified, not only that up incoming Philly designers are talented but are earning their spot in global fashion's stratosphere.
Styled by Gina Murayoshi, all the models where great, making sure they brought the ferocity as they sashayed, pelted and twirled down the runway, doing their best persona of Ms. Naomi Campbell’s catwalk inside South Philly’s esteemed Yesha Hall.
Fabbeasta would like to give a special thanks to Rachael McRae of the Belle Agency and Charlie Mack and production staff. For more details about this year's past events, celebrity appearances and a full list of Mr Charles"Charlie Mack"Alston credentials please click on the link below.
