Paige Bluhdorn

I recently discovered Paige Bluhdorn. As I learn, she is a former dancer and a high fashion model who has recently become a textile print designer.

After a break from modeling and from the public eye to raise her beautiful twin girls, Paige is slowly emerging into the fashion arena with her textile designs inspired by pop-culture iconic images. Her work is contemporary and printed on a range of high-end fabrics that give it that uptown meets downtown flair. The prints feature repeated images of iconic figures such as Michael Jackson, Bill Gates, Andy Warhol and even Britney Spears. One wouldn’t be able to identify the actual imagery straightaway without closer inspection.

This 5 foot 11 statuesque beauty attends several galas and charitable events around New York City. Cleverly, Paige uses these printed fabrics to make beautiful dresses for herself and perplex audiences with these one-of-a-kind frocks at fabulous events such as the benefit for American School of Ballet.

I will be sure to follow this stunner to find out what she will be up to next …

This is Rio.

To me, one of the most beautiful, inspiring, alive and unique cities in the world. I have traveled a lot, but Rio de Janeiro is something else. If you haven't seen it, you must. If you have, then you know what I'm talking about.
