Danielle Everine - Fall 2010 Collection Lookbook Preview

Hairstylist Jen Hughes posted a couple of behind-the-scenes preview images of Danielle Everine's Fall 2010 Collection shoot. The collection debuted on the runway at Everine's joint show with Raul Osorio, "Pale Rider," last month. I'm excited to see the final images, especially with photographer Ingrid Werthmann (one of the best in town) behind the lens.

One of the keystone events during this fall's MNfashion Week is sure to be "Pale Rider," a fashion show produced by MNfashion featuring local designers (and Voltage 2010 alumni) Raul Osorio and Danielle Everine. The show has just been announced along with a handful of lovely images courtesy of photographer Ingrid Werthmann (without a doubt one of the best fashion photographers in town), Molly Roark and Gail Madden - which wouldn't be out of place in a national fashion publication.

About the show: "Danielle's collection embraces traditional wild-west styles while converging with biblical imagery of Revelations, the last book in the New Testament. Raul's collection explores the juxtaposition of hard lines, soft textures, masculine silhouettes and feminine lightness. While each designer drew inspiration from very different places, Pale Rider embraces both to create an extremely cohesive fall runway show."
