I attended the Global Runway's Night Out  and it was a great and wonderful experience of wonderful people and great culture and couture all put together. The models dazzled the ballroom with the most beautiful designed outfits and jewelry that complemented them in the most wonderful way. It was a long show but it was well worth seeing the vision of each designer presented to you one at a time. Couple of things really stood out to me from the rest was the model wearing a beautiful bridal like gown that captivated everyone's attention, also there was an amazing piece that was a made up of 3 pieces that included a small shirt, Capri pants and a long Robe to complete the outfit. Also who can ever forget the last piece of the show - a show stopper a black dress with peacock feathers in the back. It was incredible: strapless with a bustier tight top and full and heavily layered tulle bottom.
