The Metropolitan Pavilion buzzed with excitement on Tuesday morning as press and VIP guests awaited Khloe Kardashian’s curated Dash & Smooch collection and Spice Girl Mel B.’s Ultimo lingerie collaboration. The crowd waited with anticipation not just for the clothes, but also for special guest models Olympic swimmer Amanda Beard and Danity Kane favorite Aubry O'Day.
Dash & Smooch began with models walking barefoot in cotton jersey and fleece loungewear by Scanty and Lauren Moshi, Oral-B toothbrushes in hand. The collection then moved to cocktail dresses in both demure and bright colors. We liked Foley & Corinna’s black dress with plunging V and gray fringe and Black Halo’s pleated dress and thin green belt. The audience also enjoyed Aubry O’Day’s walk in a yellow tee and embellished black denim, accompanied by her dog in her arms.
Recording artist Kreesha Turner followed Kardashian’s bow with samplings of her strong vocals from her debut album “Passion.” Then it was straight onto a blaring “Sexy Back” remix as the first model walked down the runway in mile-high studded sandals and printed, lace-frill bra and bikini bottom. A series of girly printed sets reminiscent of Victoria Secret’s Pink followed – and then came the satin. Polka dots were a recurring theme, along with bustiers with plenty of lace and pleated mesh detailing. The show ended with Ultimo knit skirts in tartan and leopard prints paired with bright satin bras. Our favorite look was the cute Tartan lingerie in Scottish plaid.
But the best moment had to be Amanda Beard’s strut in black satin lingerie, which showed off her amazing swimmer abs and toned legs. She didn’t hesitate to smile, and the audience cheered her on throughout the shows.
