Couture fashion
designer Michael
Mione` showcased his
Spring 2009 women’s
line for Mione`
designs at Country
Club in NYC on
September 4th.
Friends and fashion
enthusiasts
including Devorah
Rose, William DeMeo,
Colette, Kathleen
Giordano, Tia
Walker, Anna Khayot,
Lydia Lee, Matthew
Lipman, Evan Pazol,
Hannah Gershenson,
Justin Lee,
celebrity
hairstylist Alma
G., Jamie Chang,
and Angela
Severiano were
on hand to support
the designer. The
14-piece collection,
which was inspired
by the hues and
textures of the sea,
showcased Mione`’s
classic style and
introduced his line
of ultra luxe trench
dresses.
Mione`
believes that all
women are sexy, no
matter their size,
shape or ethnicity,
and designs all his
pieces with this in
mind. The Spring
‘09 collection was
no exception; the
line includes pieces
meant to flatter
women of any size
and age. The
collection is
versatile and
accessible and
exhibits structured
silhouettes with
exquisite
workmanship.
Mione` began his
fashion career after
graduating from the
Fashion Institute of
Technology in 1992.
After completion at
F.I.T., Michael
interned with Emmy Award winning designer Bob Mackie where he learned his
most valuable
lesson—that clothing
must reflect the
beauty
of a woman, both
inside and out.
Mione` later held
positions at
Victoria Secret and
Neiman Marcus.
Through these
positions he was
able to
study the buying
patterns of women
and learn what is
most important
to female consumers.
Michael soon began
to translate this
knowledge
into his own
designs.
After the successful
showing of his
premiere collection
at Harry’s Loft, in
2005, he decided to
move on to his
second passion,
bridal wear,
creating a May 2006
line for the Wedding
Channel Couture
Fashion Show. In
February of last
year, Michael joined
the USA Fashion
Shows Couture week
at the W hotel.
