Another sold out event! Brooklyn native Bobby Stone (@bobbystonemusic) of The New Old School brand (@thenewoldschoolbrand) did it again with the production of it’s annual Earth Day Fashion Show (@tnosfashionshow) in honor of Mother Earth. The Invisible Bully in Brooklyn was filled with people who came out in support of the brand.
With each event Bobby opens the show the same way; fists in the air to pay homage to Mother Earth herself. There is also a different Goddess selected each year to serve as the face of the brand. This year was the beautiful Sasha-Ann (@modelsashaann), who stunned the crowd when she came out wearing a beautiful mother earth inspired dress created by House of Vaughn (@thehouseofvaughn).
Bobby Stone got the night started showcasing his own clothing brand, IVIT (@ivit_ivit). The brand prides itself on providing superb customer service that provides a platform that highlights models of all sizes. The brand has a little something for everyone. What the brand showed was pretty much indicative of what you were going to see from the rest of the Indie Designers that followed that evening; a little something for everyone
Naked Escape LLC gave us some swimwear that inspired a much needed vacation. Love is Wealth, SMS Style and Smiley Face showcased their everyday wear collections. Another brand, if you’ve attended any Earth Day Fashion show in the past, you are pretty familiar with. Neighborhood Kool Kat is another everyday wear brand that I have come to know and love. Closing out the show was a QSM favorite, REK Designs by Robert E. Knight. Robert is known for his elegant evening wear, and he didn’t disappoint.
“Give people their flowers while they are still here” says Bobby Stone. Bobby recognized three fashion industry gamechangers during the show. CEO & Editor in Chief of Queen Size Magazine (@queensizemagazine), Tawana Blassingame (@tawanablassingame) was one of the honorees that evening. She received a certificate of achievement for her contributions to the fashion industry. Also recognized that evening were Big and Tall model Christian Noel (aka Chris Perez @beardedchrisnoel) and Brand Strategist/Stylist/Influencer Tamara Ivey (@iamtamaraivey) for their contributions and accomplishments in the fashion industry.
“A single flower given to a living person is worth more than a thousand flowers placed at a grave”
I would be remiss if I don’t acknowledge the dope comedian, Dave Lester (@mrmorethanfunny) who kept us laughing throughout the night.
Make sure you are in the building next year. We look forward to seeing you there.
Check out some of our favorite pieces to hit the runway.
