Breton’s chapters stay true to his aesthetics elegance. The men’s silhouettes are very on point. This collection Breton styled and designed himself. His stylist for several seasons, Montgomery Frazier The Image Guru, said, “we do not put anyone in anything that is ill-fitting. If it is ill-fitted they do not wear it. The textures and fabrics fit Breton’s catch line ‘wherever you go shine.’ The fabrics are rich, opulent, exquisite tailoring, and he is about the fashion. Being here with Breton is so glamorous at Style Fashion Week with the beautiful outdoor setting and jazz music.”
Breton develops his menswear after his own experience. He states, “when I was a ballet dancer in London and on Broadway every time I lifted my arm up when wearing a suit I would lose part of my sleeve. I knew I had to figure out how to cut a suit so I do not lose part of my sleeve. I trained at Turnbull And Asser, the suit makers for the Prince of Wales. He says, “I incorporate the English tradition I learned there with my development for the men’s suits.”
The fashion show stayed true to the designers’ aesthetic while completing the story started in New York. The beauty, tailoring, and signature detailing tell the story of hope, equality, and empowerment. Concluding with the image of renewing and shining wherever you are.

She recently became the forefront of the presidential campaign. When Hillary Clinton’s campaign released the details of being Miss Universe 1996. She took a lot slack at that time from Donald Trump. The difficult days were not as easy as she faced much criticism. The woman she is today brought forward her strength as one who stands tall and one has learned a lot about the beautiful woman she is inside and out.
Alicia stands with great strength and courage as she addresses the press on the blue carpet. She takes a moment to thank all those who support her throughout this time. She said, “I love you all, I love you all and thank you very much for all the people who are supporting me right now.”
Alicia’s daughter, Dinorah Valentina Hernandez, walks the red carpet for designer Ricardo Soltero. This dress is a soft pink with gold trim on the bottom. Her styling is soft with pink roses adorning her head. She enjoyed her moment on the runway.
Her mother, Alicia, did not let the controversy stop her daughter from walking the runway for the day. She faces the controversy with firmness and a bright smile. The lesson for her daughter and many at the event is to keep moving one foot in front of the other. Demonstrating that life continues and we move forward.
