Great Job Allyson!

This evening after work we went out for a celebration drink for a project cheer! It was implementation week which is always a week of long stressful days. It was a good and successful week.
After leaving Twin Peaks, we went to The Galleria in Houston, Texas.  It is sort of like visiting Minneapolis,  you need to visit Mall of America.

What is going on down there?
I will post a couple of posts from the evening. When we arrived, we realized that the Cadillac Fashion Show was this evening.  I've never been to a fashion show before.  The chairs were reserved for guests from the stores at the Mall. The gift bags contained fashion magazines that showed off the fall fashions.

Straight from New York Fashion Week!
Tonight (Thursday) I usually watch Project Runway.  So it was exciting to be able to watch my first runway show.  The Galleria has a lot of the high end shops so the runway show was an exceptional show.

Ya! Whooo-oooo!
As this particular model came out, I heard hooting from the well-dressed woman beside me.  I doubt that the model could hear it because the music was so loud.  But Allyson, if you see this your mother is VERY proud of you!

Allyson was the lead Model for this collection!
There was a very young boy beside me.  I wanted to see what his viewpoint was at so I put my cell phone down by his eye level. I found out that he had the best vantage point.  It was challenging to take photos at that angle, but they turned out pretty good. :^)

Great Job Allyson!
A perfectly placed large screen showed the entire runway.  It was in a cross shape and the models were designed to criss-cross each other as they walked the runway to add interest to the show.

The Big Screen
It was a challenge to get perfectly focused photos because of where I was standing and the lighting designed to make the show the most spectacular for the people in the seats below.  I love the shot below because it gives you a feel for the motion along with a feel for the ambiance of the evening.

Good movement
The screen (at the beginning/end) of the runway was running a continuous movie or background.  It was too much for me.  There were times that it distracted from the outfits.  But the one thing that they did do was to have the movie freeze and the last model of the group would stand in front of the screen adding a dramatic moment.

Strong Finish
Allyson's mom and brother it was nice to meet you! Thanks for letting me share Allyson's performance at the Cadillac Fashion Show at Houston's The Gallery.  She really did do a great job!
