Article Summary: Betsey Johnson's PRENUP collection brings back 80s pizzazz and introduces some unlikely models in one of New York Fashion Week's most joyfully






The always vivacious Betsey Johnson brought humor, flair, drag, and even some housewives to the runway for New York City Fashion Week. She debuted her PRENUP wedding-themed collection for S/S 2015 with a mix of gowns, lingerie, and ‘80s prom ensembles. Like Betsey and her clothing, the show was playful. She chose to ditch traditional models and used a few “Real Housewives”: Camille Grammer, Cynthia Bailey, and Kristen Taekman. Betsey also incorporated same sex couples and a transgendered bride into her runway along with her Dancing With The Stars partner, Tony Dovolani. Somehow Betsey incorporates frill, lace, and metallic colors into a bold, fearless line that we can’t help but adore. See some highlights from Betsey Johnson’s flamboyant show below.
