Live Mechanics

It is fashion week in New York City and Bryant Park has been transformed into a giant tent city. Fashionistas designers and press abound.

Although the bulk of the action is occurring in mid-town, New York City Fashion Week is not limited to the events in Bryant Park. The Live Mechanics crew held their fashion week kick-off event at the Hotel on Rivington, located in the lower east side of Manhattan on Wednesday February 10th. The top couple of floor of this swanky venue holds an event space that was transformed into a Live Mechanics runway show.

After introductions and red carpet, DJ Peter Paul started spinning, and the runway show was underway.

As usual, the designers at Live Mechanics brought their A-game. The runway show featured a great mix of casual, and slightly dressier looks for their fall 2010 collection. Browse the gallery below to view the featured looks (all photos by: Jacob Breinholt)

No matter what the critics say, I feel like this was a beautiful effort for the support of a worthy cause. We at Live Mechanics continue to lift of the people up Haiti in our daily prayers.

Props to Greg and Mo for the DC/Naija plug.

Gucci Mane was caught rocking that LM "New Jack Throwback". He obviously was not at the video shoot because he's doing a bid, but I wanted to throw the pic in because I can. FREE GUCCI!!!
