Photos From Runway to Heaven

If there was a memo about sporting black-tie attire to the Runway to Heaven fashion show, we didn't get it. We dressed way down (think just-got-out-of-the-pool-and-threw-on-some-jeans) compared to the high-heeled and coiffed attendees—so we jokingly told the charming and stylish gawkers sitting next to us in the "media" seats that we were with Vice Magazine.

Friday's event at the UT Alumni Center showcased creations from emerging local designers and raised money for charity at the same time. Proceeds went to Heart House, a free after-school program that provides academic and social support for low-income children.

We snapped some looks by Vluxe (men's shirts by Lucky Nahum) and Linda Asaf. We also caught two local celebrities: The Austin Chronicle's sassy "Style Avatar," Stephen MacMillan Moser, sashaying down the catwalk as the evening's emcee, and the Statesman's style reporter, Marques Harper, nervously modeling for Vluxe.

Take a look!

Sr. Moser's column in the Chron is less about style/fashion and more about his personal life (does anyone care but Sr. Moser himself?)

I'm thankful when I actually get to see something about Austin's *fashion* scene...thanks austinist.

I hate that ugly fucking queen.

And Austin's fashion "scene" is a joke.

 

With the repulsive pictures of the very repulsive Stephen Moser (and a lousy MC he was, I was there), makes me wonder of runway_to_heave was purposeful...
