chef de cuisine Nathan Volz and assistant director of food & beverage Miguel Hernandez. Since the departure of Eric Ripert, Eric Ripert’s 10 Arts has been re-branded as just 10 Arts. Check it out it’s a whole new menu, and a whole new relaxed atmosphere. The Ritz Hotel is ranked #4 in Philadelphia, #6 in Pennsylvania. Not too shabby.

If you’ve been reading PhillYChitChat for awhile now, then you’re familiar with my friend, artist Denise Fike,
who has a very distinct style. When she’s not working in her studio, she’s doing “On the Spot Fashion Skitches” at parties, wedding showers or events. ian michael crumm above

The very stylish Brandon Bermudez manning the 611 Lifestyle Booth. He says his style runs differently,
I really stand out towards others.
More of a Boy London Punk in the 80’s is what I pretty much go for.

The show started off with a wonderful performance from a dance troupe

Let the fashion show begin: first up Carmelita Greco

Stylist Marcos Matos and Joel Garcia did the hair for the show.

It was cool to see how the Ritz could be transformed from a swanky lounge, into a swanky showcase of clothing, services and, jewelery. Marcos Matos, a highly skilled Latin

styling, updo, photo shoots will be styling hair. One of the east coast’s

Looking forward to Gorgeous V and maybe The Roaring 20’s TWO Party. That was a fun time.

Beating back the title of least attractive people in the US that readers of a Travel & Leisure magazine bestowed on our City, NSquared Productions and the Park Hyatt rolled out the red carpet for Gorgeous, a spectacular showcase of art and fashion paired with a high-energy dance party. There were beautiful people on the runway, in the audience and working the crowd Friday night in the beautiful city of Philly.
Acting as host for the evening’s festivities was the fabulous Jay McCarroll, winner of Project Runway’s first season and Bump’s Fabulous Cyoni
The Gorgeous runway show will featured fresh fashion, hair and makeup from the hottest local boutiques, designers, salons and makeup artists, including Eleganza presenting Versace and Roberto Cavalli, Dennis Basso, Nicole Miller, Joan Shepp, Matthew Izzo, Ettore, Pierre & Carlo, and many others. One of my favorite places to hang out was the hallway leading to the runway, it was here the models would wait for their cue to sashy down the runway

sometimes there were obstacles on the way to the runway as waiters used this hallway tooThe runway, Jay Carrolls back, the man in the red would time the girls and then send them down the runway
