Gwyneth, darling, your Prada doesn't fit! That's really inappropriate... seriously. I'm all for sexy but this isn't it.

MY favorite look of the evening was on Victoria Secret model Karolina Kurkova. She was a gilded vision. Exquisite, chic and stunning in Rachel Zoe... a definite show stopper!

20 years of JEFFREY FASHION CARES!

jeffrey-fashion-cares-20th-anniversary-atlanta-vincent-martinez-fashionadoIt was a gathering of the fashion-minded last night as the planning committee for the 20th Annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares stylishly convened in the home of co-chair Lila Hertz.

Joined with fellow co-chairs Louise Sams and Jeffrey McQuithy by her side, the power trio set the tone for what will absolutely be the hottest ticket in town. You can bet your Loubs on it baby! So set Monday, August 27th aside as the most anticipated event of the season celebrates 20 years!

Of course, if you can't wait til August, consider joining the Host Committee and be a guest at the super-swanky Patron Party in June! Your $1,500 tax-deductible donation to the JFC's Host Committee also grants you VIP status to the event and seating... for two! Holy Blahniks!

After-party planning Goddess Cathleen Smith returns to throw a bash worth taking Tuesday off... JFC general manager Don Purcell revealed the theme was fashion specific and grandiose but wouldn't elaboarte, keeping us in suspense!

One of the most exciting announcements of the night: Vogue Magazine will be featuring a full page ad for Jeffrey Fashion Cares Atlanta! Anna Wintour praise the Lord... that's incredible! BUT it gets better... potentially, via Vogue, there may be a NY Fashion Week auction package! BIG! Stay tuned!

Prada Uomo Fall 2012

adrien-brody-prada-fashionado

Miuccia Prada

gave us an intellectually, tongue-in-cheek

y

power play of drama, parody and textile.

Prada set the stage, literally, for a number of prominent big screen actors to include,

Adrien Brody

,

Willem Dafoe

,

Gary Oldman

,

Jamie Bell

and

Tim Roth.

Parody took the leading role as Prada toyed with the idea of a "parody of power." Using the actors as models was a genius move, of course, I wouldn't turn down Prada either.

From a distance, sartorial elegance reigned. The Edwardian-esque looks were handsome and rich. The models appeared substantial and important.

Up close, however, a different story unfolded. Interesting details are revealed with a touch of humor. For example, Prada used denim and cotton throughout the collection where from afar one would think she used fine wools. (Powerful men of this stature don't dress in denim.) Also, much of the ornate patterning, not what you'd expect; up close: repeated images of football helmets and Native American headdresses. Parody of power, indeed. Photos:

Countdown to Jeffrey Fashion Cares 2011

jeffrey-fashion-cares-vincent-martinez-atlanta-fashionado

The

19th Annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares

is just twenty four hours away! Everyone involved is busy making last minute preparations for the biggest fashion event in Atlanta.

Fashion designer

Jason Wu

returns as the special guest designer. The fashion show will will feature many looks from his last collection [in addition to the other amazing designers carried at Jeffrey Atlanta] and Wu will be at the after party too.

Jeffrey Fashion Cares is a double whammy event as I see it since your ticket also gets you into the after party which is an amazing, kick-ass event in itself! [Let's just say I took Tuesday off!] 

B52's

frontman

Fred Schneider

and celebrity DJ

Vicki Powell

- and an open bar- will keep you dancing at

Opera

through the night.

After party chair,

Cathy Smith

, hosted a dinner for Fred last night, and no, rock lobster was not on the menu, if you're wondering. Vicki Powell, Jeffrey Atlanta's

Don Purcell

and former Ga Music Hall of Fame Director,

Lisa Love

were a few of the guests. The conversations were plentiful and all over the place, but in reference to Jeffrey Fashion Cares, the number one topic was what everyone is wearing! [I'm going to whore prada, gucci & ysl...

just saying

]

I do have

breaking news

via JFC co-chair, Vis a Vis owner,

Jeffrey McQuithy

. In a message sent just a few hours ago, McQuithy informs:

"We have added 15 seats to our already sold out 

MAIN

event. These tickets are available for $500 each. We do have 

After Party only

tickets still available for $150 each."

Alrighty! So 15 ticket-less fashionistas have a lucky chance to attend the 19th Annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares benefit. Get your Loubs on ladies...  ready, set go!

Hurry, these seats will go fast!

Get YOUR lucky ticket

HERE

.

See

you

tomorrow!
