Best of CC Launch 2024
‘Twas the night of Concrete Catwalk’s Circus launch party, when all through the house, harlequins strutted around the house of mystique, showcasing their best corsets and ruff collared blouse.
Upon arrival, guests ascended to a room dressed with rays of violet and blue. As I stood at the door and handed off glasses of Prosecco, I also wielded the digital camera, finding that the guests did not fail to embody the bazaar spirit of the event. Once inside, the pantomime models were impossible to miss, with their curious tights and glossy leather pants. A room filled with mingling made way for the show when the lights dimmed down and the groovy music turned on. Models in eccentric outfits of black lace tights, a floral mini dress and a blue corset and garter belt set hypnotized the audience.
To speak on the boys, they truly showed up with one sporting white denim overalls paired with a floral bandana for a pop of color. Alongside him, dressed to impress was an outfit of flared leather pants, a corset vest, and a flouncy white blouse with a matching ruff collar. Before beginning the after-party, one last model closed out the show with fantastical red and black lace tights under a blue blouse, overlayed by a black bodice. One by one, their struts up and down the runway embodied a mysterious carnival.
As guests entered the venue, metallics and shine were the stars of the night. One wore a white shirt paired with metallic gold jeans, turning a classic t-shirt into a top-10 outfit of the night. Following the theme, another guest altered a classic closet staple by pairing it with a blue metallic mini skirt. Others went in a different direction, dressing themselves in slacks and corset tops, taking a modern twist on the carnival-style. Guests clearly took this as an opportunity to pull out all the stops.
As the night went on with bumping music from DJ Askeeew and lots of dancing, the atmosphere became electric, a perfect blend of fashion and festivity. Thank you all for attending, we had a wonderful night and hope you did too. Here’s to a successful launch party, and more Concrete Catwalk parties soon.
