Glossy 8: The first report
I won’t go into detail yet, but the first ever Glossy 8 went well. The crowd that gathered at Neiman Marcus tonight was smart and fun. After mingling in the NM men’s department, they turned their attention to the stage, where Statesman reps introduced the Austin Style Maker Award winners and the models who wore threads inspired by the honorees’ fashion sense.
Yes, I mispronounced some designers’ names. Yes, the show didn’t clip along the way we would have liked. But I was proud that the team put together a stylish show that celebrated Austin’s varied fashion leaders. We’ll reveal the winners tomorrow morning and we’ll talk about how to nominate Style Makers 2009.

I thought you, Marques, Addie and the rest of the Glossy staff looked fabulous and produced an enjoyable event with delicious eye candy (I refer to both the male models and the clothes), a yummy signature drink and heaven exploding in your mouth scrumptious food from Graze Catering (Who could resist those shrimp treats? Seriously. Who?)
And so what if you mispronounced a couple designer names - you looked GOOD while doing it!
