Designer Samantha Samuel emerged as a designer to watch, her collection should be on its way to the Ovation TV’s “The Fashion Fund”. Samantha, a new and magnetic rising star in the tri-state fashion world, stole the night, with her football helmeted models, absolutely true to the theme of the night.
Jersey City Fashion Week Spokesperson Marc John Jefferies excited the entire crowd with a surprise appearance after finishing” Brotherly Love” an upcoming Queen Latifah Production, Big Moma’s House: Like Father, Like Son and producing his own short film “Happy Baby”. This show was the most inspiring Super Bowl XLVII Fashion Show in the Tri-State area with Super Bowl XXI and XXV Champion Carl Banks G-III Sports Apparel Group, LaRae Wilson signature line LaRae Mychel featuring an exclusive one of a kind Cocktail Dress made of White Castle® Slider packaging and Tommy Hilfiger contributing his exceptional collection. This event was the Highlight of Jersey City Fashion Week’s Production of the 2014 Football Fashion Week “Where Fashion Touches Down” A Pre-Super Bowl XLVIII Fashion Event.
This event was listed on the NY/NJ Super Bowl Host Committee website as a public event to attend. In addition to Odessa Turner (New York Giants Super Bowl XXV Champion) and Darryl Reid (Indianapolis Colts Super Bowl XLI Champion) celebrity models also included, Marsha Thompson (Miss Tropical Paradise 2013) and Dante S. Briggins of Wilhelmina Models. All blitzed the runway in GIII Sports gear by Carl Banks. Amazing swimwear and spring designs illuminated the runway creating sheer havoc in the audience as they tried to encompass the extraordinary collection of designs presented. Karlene Lindsey of KL Designs, Chris Nonn of Daring USA kept the sparkle on the runway with exceptional styling. This being said, it is not hard to imagine the buzz created by Tori Carters “Strike A Pose” children models as they strutted on the runway in NFL licensed gear. The children’s model’s clothing had its own special artistic touch and they held their own quite extraordinarily on the runway. The children’s model’s struck deliberate poses to cheers until intermission finally calmed the exuberant audience. Intermission included Jeff Foxx of WBLS and Sirius XM Radio broadcasting on Internet
