I never thought Route 66 News would have something about new fashion, but here it is.
Richie Rich and Traver Rains of Heatherette put together a show called “Route 66: California or Bust” during L.A. Fashion Week.
Here’s how Associated Press entertainment writer Sandy Cohen described the collection:
… a whimsical collection of bedazzled Speedo-style swim trunks, dresses dripping with lace, sequins and fringe and swingy skirts in bold graphic prints.
The report contains eight photos from the show.
By my eye, the styles remind me of what was coming out of 1970s punk and 1980s synth-pop music.
Here’s a video of the designers preparing for the upcoming show:
Some of those models could have hit the buffet table a little harder, though. đ
