Couture Readers,

Twenty-Ten… here we come!  There is an air of excitement in Couture’s office as we prepare for the New Year.

What will the unpredicted trend be this year?  Which designers will make a name for themselves among the highly esteemed?  Most importantly what will you as readers do?  I encourage you to take everything you have learned from 2000-2009 and apply it 2010.  Don’t be afraid to wear a feather in you hair, make your eyes smoky and wear boots that make a statement.

January is the season of inspiration, taking chances and believing in the possibilities.  We hope you have a fun party frock to ring in the New Year and that the month of January launches you in the fashion freedom that 2010 holds for you!

In this issue we encourage you to take a sneak peek at London Fashion Week.  The designers showcasing in this regal event are the crème de la crème.   Within the States, we are looking forward to New York Fashion Week in February.  We can’t wait to see the looks that will hit the runways.  With February also comes Mardi Gras!  We have quite a fun take on what party fashionistas should parade around in the Big Easy.

We wish you the happiest New Year and can’t wait to see what 2010 brings to the runways around the world and onto the pages of Couture!

Warmest wishes to you,


Polly Bibb
