Designer's Challenge, San Jose CA

South Bay Design host the Designer’s Fashion Show Challenge!

South Bay Design is the place to shop for any Bay Area Interior Designer. Their huge showroom offers expertise in both residential and commercial spaces. They have been helping their clients in creating the perfect atmosphere and settings throughout the years!

They recently hosted a Designer’s runway show challenge at their San Jose location. Not your ordinary fashion show. Think project runway where the contestants are given non- traditional materials and are expected to create masterpieces. This is exactly what happened. Teams were organized and surprised with their materials- window treatments blinds, shades, tassels, upholstery to name just a few!

I was privileged enough to be able to see each team’s progress as I photographed all the behind the scene’s efforts. I was absolutely blown away with each step I took! All the designers worked within the 90 minute time frame without ever using a sewing machine. All the designers had sketches of their favorite inspirations and created beautiful designs with the selected materials with so much attention to all the details.

As the models practiced their patented runway walks the crowds began to arrive. You could really feel all the excitement and giddiness in the air. The show was a great success and I had such a great time covering the event!!

The full article and photos will be appearing in an upcoming issue of Gentry Magazine soon! Stay tuned in.. enjoy the sneak peek here!!
