The finale of Fashion Focus Chicago was StyleChicago.com’s The Art of Fashion. I usually try not to be negative about any of the shows, but truthfully, I just wasn’t that impressed. There were about 2 or 3 looks that were noteworthy, but overall, there wasn’t really anything new or showstopping to me. Here’s the video I made from the runway show. See if you can pick out 3 dresses/outfits that really impress you…I’d love to hear your opinions!

What’d you think? Am I just jaded and off-base? It is possible that I was experiencing fashion burn-out.

Here are the three dresses that DID impress me…

How adorable is this Borris Powell outfit? The 2 tones of yellow, the bright ruffles, the adorable blue pinstripe jacket with yellow button and  matching belt detail….this look is so bright and fun and spring-ish. LOVE IT.

Two other stunning Borris Powell yellow dresses.

This Nora del Busto dress was the one that blew me away. When the model walked, the ruffles kicked up and showed their white insides. It was flirty and stunning…and totally unique.

What do you think? Overall, it was a nice event, and the fashions were pretty…just a little uninspired, in my humble opinion.
