The Dish - Celebrity Corner

Vive La FIDM!
The FIDM Debut Fashion Show is always the highlight of the season and to celebrate Fashion Club hosted the party to end all parties! This year’s French-themed Debut Pre-Party was nothing short of spectacular, complete with boudoir-inspired furniture, Can Can costumes, celebrity guests and tons more! Here are the specs: Can Can

The Moulin Rouge theme of the party was inspired by the Can Can motif of the FIDM Debut 2008 Fashion Show, featuring designs by students in FIDM’s Advanced Study Fashion Design and Theatre Costume Design programs.

 






Everyone’s a star at a Fashion Club party! Guests posed for their own “magazine” cover with international celebrity and FIDM Instructor Nick Verreos along with our Can Can girls…

Mademoiselles were treated to an ultra-glamorous eyelash bar, where professionals from Salon Eleven applied false lashes and sparkling gems to their eyes…
DJ D.J. Tina-T was on hand, spinning everything from Beyonce to The B52s. Party guests grooved to the beat as they dipped fresh strawberries and marshmallows into our pink chocolate fountain, and ate mini cupcakes de chocolat…

One lucky partygoer won a sleek, blue Video iPod, but no one left empty-handed! Fashion Clubbers walked away with goodie bags filled to the brim with amazing gifts, including totes and T-shirts from Bebe, Wet ‘n’ Wild Lip Impressions™ Lip Gloss Compacts, chic earrings from Claire’s Boutique, and much more!

Prizes
As always, the proceeds from the Fashion Club Debut Pre-Party benefited the Fulfillment Fund, an organization that helps economically disadvantaged kids graduate from high school and get into college.
