 Countdown: ONE WEEK TO http://www.mbfashionweek.com/home

And refresher: the spring fashion shows are always one season behind (one of the first things you learn in fashion school:)


Heres some more speed for you:

 America's Next Top Model launch premiere happened on

May 20, 2003

and the show quickly became one of the network's highest-rated shows. And then-,...

Project Runway made its inaugral debut

 December 1, 2004.

receiving wide critical acclaim, including an Emmy nomination for outstanding competitive reality series.

Anyway, it would not be too long for Germany's Next Topmodel to come along in 2006.

Heidi Klum original 'Project Runway' judge was breifly attached to it a few weeks ago as they were filming in LA....(wolf whistles!)

But this is where GnTM was in LA again this week . filming about 10 blocks from the

Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising Los Angeles. (FIDM-LA)

And just btw, some of these fashion people have SUCH interesting backgrounds.

For instance,

 Nick Verreos, fashion designer, and“Project Runway” alums

 FIDM-LA alumni

father was a U.S. State Department diplomat in Panama, who had met his wife (Nicks mother), whose great uncle was the president of Venuezuela.

But go ahead and see here what Nick Verreos, fashion designer, and“Project Runway” alum has to say about "style icon" Michelle Obamas fashion sense

1st Lady of Fashion

And just case you actually like to follow fashion and trends ..

Quick marginal note: 2009: Michelle Obama’s one-shoulder, white chiffon gown received mixed reviews from style watchers but propelled young American designer, Jason Wu, to sartorial stardom .

 But if this no longer excites you, or , as long as youre here, do check out these guys and the grey overcoat fashion sense for the new

J U L I AN A S S A N G E movie being filmed. In Berlin. (You have to say that out loud with the most unusual sense of aplomb: "In Berlin!?" (.....!)

And finally as if all this patterning and sew stitching of various news snippets showcasing Presidential Lady fashion trends and Presidents great nephews were not enough, I will leave you with this:

And the thought that one of the coolest places you can watch Project Runway now is in the Arab world. (Now, over to you, Jim!:)
