On the Frontlines…Rules for the Runway:


As GsoFABweek is quickly approaching, I’m sure many of you are asking the same question…What on earth do I wear?? Have no fear dolls, your GSO FABweek gal is here to give you the low down of what to wear to a fashion show. Here are some simple rules to follow…

1) Pay Tribute: Usually, you honor the designer by wearing one of their pieces. Fortunately, GSO FABweek will be featuring multiple designers per show, so you gals have a wide spectrum to choose from.

2) Shoe Stopper: This is not the time to bring out the ballet flats! Truth is, when you are not mingling you will be sitting watching the show, which gives your tootsies ample time to rest! Tonight’s the night to bring out those babies you paid way too much for and feel guilty wearing! No need to give your feet a rest tonight let them steal the show!

3) A Pop of Color: I’m always a HUGE fan of the LBD, but tonight, give her a rest. All the fashionistas around you will see right through your little “conservative” act.  Why not play it up with a little pop of color and show your fellow chic pals that you are on cue with the trends of the season? (You do know this is the season of bright colors right??) Hello, take a look at the spring palate…coral, turquoise, hot pink…don’t short yourself by being bland in the back wearing BLACK!

4) Keep it Classy: No one at a fashion show wants to see your “goodies.” That’s right, strap the girls in and no hiking of the skirts please. At fashion shows you will be surrounded by the elite, which leave no time to be slutty. (Yes, I said it!) If you would wear it to a frat party, put it back in the closet! 

5) Throw it in the bag: You don’t have to go overboard and spend thousands of dollars on a dress you will only wear once, but different rules apply to the bag.  If it’s a fake or a replica, leave it at home. Anyone with a good eye will see right though your Flouie Vuitton. If you can’t afford the real thing, borrow, or opt for a sleek bag that has no label. You will thank yourself later!

6) Who’s that girl?: Unless you are a total celebrity (not in your own mind) please remove the shades. Besides, the show will be totally dark and believe me, you DON’T want to miss a thing!  Those who try to stay incognito are only cheating themselves; they totally can’t see and miss the entire event! So, throw those sunnies on while you are en route to the show, but remember to throw them in your glam bag once you walk the red carpet! We wanna see those gorgeous lashes dolls!

That’s the low down gal pals…We can’t wait to see what you choose!! If you have any other dire questions, let us know!

Until April 28th….
Xoxo,

GSO FABweek Girl
