1. EXPO Show

    April 22, 2010 by Althea

    This is a video from EXPO, which is a charity event to raise money for Room to Read’s Reading Room Program.  I like this video because the women wearing my clothes are not models and it shows how curvier women of all shapes- not just the stick thin models- look and feel in my clothing.  I hope you enjoy!

  2. LA Market Fall 2010

    April 12, 2010 by Althea

    My sales rep had a large space in the Copper Building for LA market.  My collection was in a part of the room with a lot of other designer’s collection and buyers come and look at all the different lines to decide what they want in their stores.
    I went directly from school to Project Runway to starting my own line so it has definitely been a lot of learning and hard work in the past couple years!! Therefore, I have to admit that I felt proud seeing my Fall and Spring 2010 collections together, showing in a room with a lot of other great designers within a year of starting my company.  I can’t wait to continue the success!!xx

  3. Photos from LA

    April 11, 2010 by Althea

    I wanted to share some photos from my trip to LA.  I came to LA for a couple weeks for the Chino Hills event and LA market, which happens to take place during LA Fashion week, so there were a lot of events and I used this opportunity to showcase my Fall 2010 line!  I dressed the talented and beautiful Tanisha Harper for a few events.  I also had a great time at the Designer and Muse event where I ran into Nick Verreos his muse Lisa (Tanisha was my muse!), some of my favorite fellow Project Runway alumni!xx

  5. My Oscar Gown Picks

    March 8, 2010 by Althea

    Hey everyone! Earlier today I was honored to join Vanessa Rae and Sarah Evans on Watchitoo.com for MyShape’s Oscar event. We picked out dresses for the ladies in attendance, as well as for ourselves! Here’s what I picked.

    The Leading Ladies

    Sandra Bullock

    SandraBullock

    Dress by Althea Harper

    I think that this dress would look amazing on Sandra because she has the amazing figure to really stand out and her dark coloring would be able to carry the dress as well. She has broad shoulders as well as having hips to carry this dress so that she will look like an hourglass goddess, without the dress hanging on her.

    Helen Mirren

    Dress by Marchesa

    This dress would be stunning on Helen because on the bold dramatic color and the silhouette. Helen has an amazing figure and is still a vixen as an older woman. She has a full bust and hips with a little waist and this dress drapes across the waist to really show off her hourglass figure. (more…)
