Saint Louis Fashion Week, Fall 2008
Fashion Week was great to film this time. We filmed fewer shows so we were less exhausted than after we filmed in May, but we still came out with 15 videos. We've got some interesting behind the scenes interviews & were able to film a good variety of runway shows. You'll see St. Louis designer, Skif, who made the sweaters worn in "The Matrix," as well as some very cool fashions from designers in LA (Meghan Fabulous & Silver Dagger). We've also got some urban/street fashion by hip hop artist Nelly (St. Louis native, grew up right near me in U. City, but he's just a bit younger than me) and another line by another rap artist out of U. City, Murphy Lee. We'll be uploading the Fall Fashion videos through December.

Did you ever put up the translation I sent you? Or was it wrong?

No, I did get it & need to post it (spending little time on Opera because I am doing so much work). It was a bit messed up but I can still use it. And thank you, that was very sweet of you. flirt
