Summer fashion hits the runway


Lafayette retailers showed off their goods Wednesday night during KSMB's Fashion Show at Acadiana Center for the Arts.

Artesia showed off summer gear including luggage you'd want to show off here and abroad. Brother's on the Boulevard rocked the runway sans shoes with great jeans. Lemon Drop's girls looked tasty in fun hues and shapes. Jo Ann Delhomme's Get Wet Shop reminded me that a fabulous floppy hat puts an instant polish on swimwear. Belle Amie sparkled with classic and dynamic dresses in shades from soft to electric.

In addition to local retailers, UL School of Fashion Design students showcased their work that varied from the conservative to flamboyant.

The Acadiana Center for the Arts offers a sleek venue for a temporary catwalk and the fashion on display Wednesday offered a variety of looks for men and women.
