LADY GAIL  AND MICHEAL GILLINGS BIRTHDAY AND FASHION SHOW MILESTONE!

By: C. Harrison/April 20, 2016

It was advertised for weeks  by various people and it apparently had its roots. It was also not the first time that Lady Gail and Sir Michael Gillings, travel the road of being serenaded; but, this Journalist had the pleasure of witnessing the serene eloquence of their 50th sere nation and it was my very first time at this particular annual event.  I loved it.  The extravaganza took place April 17, 2015 at the Château Royal, on Francis Lewis Blvd, in Queens-Long Island, border.

The Theme ‘White on White’  a mosaic panoramic view in all direction. It was also standing room for some because it seemed like the entire community came out to show their love for this immaculate couple;  who show grace, poise, and strength.

At the very beginning before the dancers came out they told us that the feel of the show would be like the movie Coming to America,  and to my surprise it sure felt that way; only, in the movie, they had more of everything and a much bigger budget, but what was missing in budgeting, was made up for in ambience… great food and a spirit of you belonging surrounded by friends and well wishers, celebratory and of course pure and simple fun.  I enjoyed very moment.

Accordingly, Michael, thee designer, didn’t disappoint…..models stout their stuff on the red carpet to the delight of the crowd who cheered them on. Michael pondered to the crowd with his latest new elegance fashions.  Young models glided onto the red carpet with the signature cat-walk and some even dazzled the crowd with entertainment.  All told, they were fabulous. This crowd liked the fact that full figured models were mixed in with the regulars… which made the evening more interesting and everyone seemed pleased.

I must say,  it is not everyday we see black couples in this light. The only time we get to see anything close to this, is on TV.  Or taken to the First Couple,  Mr. and Mrs. Obama. Whom we all think have this kind of connect with each other and their family.

I’m  glad I got the chance to experience this in real life.  Has you will see, the pictures  which speak a thousand words.  Much much credence to the lovely couple.
