Runway Recap: Black V 2011

A crowd and runway decked in dramatically dark apparel made for an evening of edgy, mysterious fashion at the recent Black V fashion show. A fundraiser for the City College Fashion Department, the annual event produced by Owen Buenaventura and Del Geronimo took over Madrone Studios this year to feature apparel by designers Jay Nicolas Sario, Dahae Kim, GB Shrive, LHC Couture, Menk, Ken Chen SF, Phuong My and Cari Borja and accessories by Kaatje Design, Guzel Design and Eugene Huang.

Below, a few looks from party-goers and the runway.
