Culte femme 09.09.09 Members Only Fashion Prive Series

For her Holiday 2009 collection, designer Hindy Weber-Tantoco took inspiration from the inner ferociousness of every woman. Covetous peek-a-boo bondage dresses, frocks adorned with leatherette, lace tights and studded jersey pieces are inarguably sexy and forthcoming, but Hindy managed to transform them into chic and elegant pieces.  The sartorial creations perfectly compliment the ethereal form of a woman, hugging every curve, and sensually showcasing parts that utter come-hither.

A film by up & coming filmmaker, Christian Acuna, also gave guests an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the glamorous shoot that took place days earlier.  It mirrored the tone of the night – sultry and mysteriously provocative.

The scene was set for a stellar night as the A-list crowd filled with fashionistas and insiders drank their Grey Goose martinis and mingled around.  Light boxes spread about Members Only showcased Hindy’s favorite styles of the cult favorite Melissa shoes, featuring styles by iconic designers Vivienne Westwood, Alexandre Herchovitch and famed architect Zaha Hadid.  The label has established itself as a brand that breaks fashion grounds with comfort and style in mind, perfect for every fierce femme.  As the mood of the night settled in, pole dancers decked out in gold mesh leotards with full head masks left guests speechless and in awe.  As they spun around and did their tricks, they oozed with eroticism straight out of the beginning of a James Bond film. Adding drama to the night was a female impersonator, Jasmine Pringles, who lit up the stage as she portrayed Lady Gaga.
