How do YOU rock your vogue?!

The OHM committee got together to show off how they rock their vogue. Sporting their OHM apparel and dancing to the beats we had lotssss of fun.

This photo shoot got us even more pumped for the upcoming show (if that’s evvven possible). The committee’s high energy will no doubt make this show go down in OHM history. Get excited to watch your fellow friends and students dance, model and show off their talents. This huge production is the event of the year, and you are guaranteed to see tons of familiar faces rockin the stage!

The show is less than a week away! It’s almost show time—remember to buy your tixs before they sell out! You can buy tickets at infosource THIS WEEK for $15, or email info@ohmfashionshow.ca to arrange ticket purchases. Come support OHM and raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society.

Oh Dina!


Remember that lovely bird/feather hair piece Sarah Jessica Parker wore to her wedding in the Sex and the City movie? Never will I be as chic as SJP, I thought, as I gleamed at her on screen.


But, I just might come close, if Oh Dina! has anything to do with it.


Oh Dina! is a hair piece collection designed by Nicole McInnis. She incorporates rustic metals, vintage birdcage veiling, and textured fabrics to create a unique line with a 1950’s vibe. Each piece is one of a kind! Her most recent collection will be showcased in OHM fashion show. She has gathered 4th year Ryerson design students to supply her with dresses that she has enhanced with her handcrafted fascinators.


If you’re interested in buying an Oh Dina! hair piece, you can purchase them at Centennial Hall after the show. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Canadian Cancer Society.

1.
Tom Ford Recruiting Womens wear Designers

Tom Ford has confirmed he'll launch a womens wear line. Tom Ford recently told WWD that he will, in fact, be launching a womenswear line “very soon.” Ford’s businesspartner, Domenico De Sole, is on the hunt for some financing, and once the monetary aspect is all squared away, we can expect a womenswear collection to hit the runways about 18 months after! Word is Ford has been quietly recruiting designers, including accessories specialists, for the collection.

2. Gareth Pugh taking over design at Alexander McQueen?


McQueen's fall 2010 collection, which he is said to have pretty much completed before his death, will be shown this week in Paris. However, instead of the scheduled runway show, the house has planned "a series of low-key, private, salon presentations," according to the Telegraph.

Just a week after Alexander McQueen's funeral, the company in charge of his fashion label is believed to have identified his successor. Gareth Pugh, 28 year-old British designer, is understood to be the designer that PPR wants as the new creative director of Alexander McQueen, of which it owns 51 per cent. After McQueen's suicide at the age of 40, Francois-Henri Pinault, the chairman of PPR, pledged to sustain his "genius".

3. Lindsay Lohan Fired As Ungaro Artistic Adviser? “She’s No Longer Involved…”

Lindsay Lohan, whose disastrous debut as artistic adviser for Emanuel Ungaro became the laughing stock of the fashion world last fall, has been unceremoniously booted from any further dealings with the French fashion house. The line’s Fall 2010 collection, which premiered sans Lohan during Paris Fall Fashion Week on Monday, features only the work of chief designer Estrella Archs. “She’s not involved in this…” a company spokesperson told Women's Wear Daily today. Lohan’s stint as Ungaro’s celebrity style consultant was slammed by Emanuel Ungaro himself.
