Supermodel - IT Convention Gala Dinner!

Sorry this took so long to write up.  I had to work early Sunday so couldn't stay up and wait for the email, and then Sunday and today, I felt like my brain was made of diarrhea.  But here we go with the finale of the Supermodel convention.

First up was a centerpiece - Tweed Couture Dania!  I was pretty surprised, but pleasantly.

Her necklace is astounding.  It's based off a 1997 Dior look.

Next up they had the design winner annoucements, and Salvador Lopez Arriaga won with this cool design.  She'll be produced next year:

I hope the doll herself looks like this, too!

After dinner, Jason Wu went up and did an interview with Carol, and revealed that he'll be doing a new line next year that will debut the Velvet Touch skin.  I don't know much else about it, so we'll have to wait and see.  However, convention-goers were given the chance to pre-order this lovely Elyse - La Vie en Bleu.  She's only available for the convention peeps, so I'm sure she'll be a pretty penny on the secondary market.

The convention doll this year was also a surprise.  Most people, including me, were expecting Elyse or Agnes, but it was Diva Dasha!  This year is the year of Dasha.

She's stunning!  I kind of really want her, but at the same time, she's somewhat like Modern Sensibility and Always Polished, so I dunno.... I'll probably cave and want her too, though.

Lastly, they announced that next year's convention theme will be Fairytale Fashion, and will be in Orlando.  I was hoping for something in the Northeast, to be honest, but I'm hoping to make it to Orlando next year.  I say that every year about convention, though.
