Last night I had the amazing opportunity to return to my old college campus for a presentation given by fashion designer and Project Runway Season 2 contestant Nick Verreos. I was a part of my school’s Fashion Society for three years, and we have brought a number of famous fashion names to campus: Whitney Thompson, winner of America’s Next Top Model Season 10, Leanne Marshall, winner of Project Runway Season 5, and runner up of that season, Korto Momolu. While these three women were all wonderful, amazingly inspirational speakers, I have got to admit that Nick topped them. He is such a funny, genuinely nice person and such a talented designer with a great story and outlook on life.
Nick’s designs are very flashy, award show glam– not the style I usually pay much attention to due to the lack of opportunity I have to wear such designs. But I can’t get over this beautiful number from his Spring 2011 collection:
So elegant and light, this is exactly the look I would want if I were to ever grace the Red Carpet! Click here for NIKOLAKI (Little Nick!), his high-end line.
I wish him the best of luck with his endeavors in the fashion world- not that he needs it- and would like to thank him again for sharing his story with us!
