Silver Needle Fashion Show : Grace Buckley

Grace's collection for the Silver Needle Fashion Show was based off of her inspiration and design portfolio, Motorcycle Chanel.  Grace's three looks consist of classic pieces mixed with a bit of grunge attitude.  



Her first look, worn by model Alyssa DeMarco, featured a leather jacket, a loose fitting sheer black and white patterned top, and cropped black pants.  The shoes worn by the model bring out the edginess in her first design.  


Grace's second design fit perfectly to her model.  She created a cut out leather bustier-like top that features an exposed zipper in the back.  The pants are classic tweed, but Grace changed the whole aesthetic of the look by adding a leather and chain accent to the waist of the pants.


Her final look was a traditional LBD with a twist.  Grace covered the dress in loose threading that accentuates the model's figure as well as bringing movement and something unique to the look she's created.  


Last, but certainly not least, Grace was honored at the evening show for the work she did with Marykate and Ashley Olsen at a previous internship.  She also received an award for her work in design! Grace, always being humble, doesn't say too much about her experiences with the Olsens, other than, "It was definitely an eye-opening experience."
