Between The Sheets 2007 photo’s

Here are some great photo’s (and some extra commentary, off course!) from the 2007 The Between The Sheets show we covered last week by photographer Bob Nittoli.

Christina Tammera
 This flirty and fun spin nautical theme (right down to the sailor hats!) charmed the crowd and truly put the naughty in naughty-cal! I love the retro simplicity of the navy halter neck piece – a fit that would be flattering on any woman, including the beautiful model. I love the red accents and detailing, especially the shoes. Anchors Away!

Layla L’obatti
Up close and personal with Layla’s “Dreamcatcher” collection, we find another charming (and very wearable) corset with a very contemporary menswear feel with a beautifully feminine edge added by the boyshorts. This stylish set was modeled by Rowthania, one of the lovely models who truly owned the catwalk.

My pictures did not do Lorraine’s collection justice! I enjoyed the red and cream polka dot piece as it revealed a bit of couture. My favorite was the bra and skirt set for the great attention to detail and abundant use of texture. I love the criss-cross of ribbon detail, especially the peek-a-boo back as well as the combination of Swiss dots and animal print. Original and intriguing for sure.

Between the Sheets 2007… The Show, The Dream

by

A crowd of 350 plus rocked to the music as women of all shapes sizes, and colors strutted their stuff on the runway. On a typical Friday night in New York City, this was anything but typical! The chic space at Mezmor Studio was the perfect choice for Dream 2007, a young, hip lingerie fashion show presented by Between the Sheets, featuring the work of the talented FIT intimate apparel students. If this event is a forecast for the future of the intimate apparel industry, then our wardrobes are sure to be filled with fresh, fun, and fierce pieces for years to come. Between the Sheets is the brainchild of designer Layla L’obatti and was developed in response to the dissolution of the FIT Intimate Apparel Fashion Show. When I sat down with Layla after the show, I learned more about how she transformed her idea into a successful forum in which up and coming design talent can showcase their creations.

Tell me a little bit about Between the Sheets and how it originated.
Every year FIT’s Associate’s Degree Program would have an Intimate Apparel Fashion Show. The year my classmates and I were to present our work, it got canceled. We were going to be the first class with out a show and we wanted a chance to showcase our work. So we pulled it together and here we are 3 years later.

It’s been interesting. The show has grown each year. All the designers and models all volunteer. We all wanted a chance to build our portfolios. So there is a lot of group togetherness with the event. [Read more…] about Between the Sheets 2007… The Show, The Dream
