W and Le Meridien Holiday Fashion Show

A few months ago I was asked to be a designer for the W and Le Meridien's employee holiday party fashion show.  It was such an honor to have been asked and I couldn't wait to start putting things together.  The premise of the fashion show was to represent  the re-branding of the two hotels, embodied  through clothing.  The Le Meridien look was more sophisticated with their colors being red, black and white while the W look was more fun and edgy, colors hot pink, hot green, gold and black.  I was able to put a great team of people together and had a successful event this past weekend.  See below for pictures.
