Trinidadian designer Simon Duncan is at it again! I attended the show last year when Simon Duncan partnered with Praxis Housing Initiative where stylist Mykel Smith delivered emotional life lessons in the big apple,  his come up through Praxis and making it as a designer in New York City. It was held in theis incredible ballroom in the city and this year has moved to Brooklyn.

Brooklyn’s own Mel Simon will be presenting his latest and most vibrant collection entitled “Born in Brooklyn” from his Simon Duncan fashion label’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection on Saturday October 31st 2009 at Kai Studios 1011 Dean Street, Brooklyn NY, doors open at 7pm. This show promises to be a festive and memorable event.

Fashion designer, entrepreneur and former Wall Street veteran, Mel Simon pursued his fashion career as a pattern maker for Christian Francis Roth, and has spent several years at Carmen Marc Valvo. You may have caught one of the many designs Mel has worked on the red carpet being worn by the likes of celebrities such as Hollywood actress Lucy Liu, Sex In the City’s Kim Cattrall, singer and actress Vanessa Williams, Chandra Wilson of Grey’s Anatomy, Joan Rivers and Queen Latifah just to name a few.

Mel’s prestigious label, Simon Duncan Collection, has participated in numerous fashion events including the New York Fashion Week in Bryant Park. However, “Born in Brooklyn” will bring fashion back to Mel’s birthplace of fashion.
