The second Fashion Show was Krystalos, it is the high-fashion jewelry line by designers Joan Laureano and Arturo Fradas, their Jewelry combine the most wonderful metals, semi-precious and precious stones, organic materials and fine crystals to make fantasy become reality, I was at awe with the collection just beautiful.

One thing that caught my eye was his beautiful model Ilka Tamar dressed in black, she was the image of his Fashion Show, they told me that they were inspired by the 30’s and 40’s look, Old Hollywood if you will and the model was an evolution to 2014, this was genius to me.
