"String Theory"

2014 Fall/Winter Women's and Men's Capsule Collection

Live Cello Performance by Broadway's Peter Sachon

and Recording Artist Serena Tideman

New York City native Mischka Velasco will feature "String Theory" for her fourth Manhattan runway show.

"It is my life of being. Drape it, the way I intend it, it intends me to do it... gives me peace. Making a dress is something I will do in my final days with my dress form and fabric and I will stay draping," says Velasco.

Among fashions freshest and brightest, Velasco's fashion design talent delivers cutting edge modernity and raw creativity. "My fashion skills were not shaped just by design school but also by teaching myself." A fiery talent to watch, Velasco will present her Women's and Men's Fashion Ready-to-Wear Collections on February 10th at 5:00pm during New York Fashion Week Fall 2014.. Fortified by meditation and prayer, this collection highlights the spiritual inspirations of upscale, understated beauty.

Through one-of-a-kind vision and craftsmanship, Mischka Velasco uses textile combinations such as cashmere and silk dupioni to create a collection that is raw elegant draping, sometimes linear, yet soft and feminine for the women's collection but also includes cool hidden pockets from bold plaid colorized prints for menswear. The enthusiastic response to this brand new collection will bring out Celebrities as well as other surprise guests.

Mischka Velasco commissioned Fashion Show Producer & Event Consultant Deshawn D. Colbert of deshawnd Management (www.deshawnd.com); Lead Makeup Artist Londone Trebor with Sponsor Lamik Beauty (www.lamik-beauty.com), the first eco-chic makeup brand; Hair by Talibah Stewart and team; Live Music by Broadway Cellist Peter Sachon (www.petersachon.com), Recording Artist Serena Tideman (www.serendipitymusik.bandcamp.com) and DJ Hauke Couture.

About Mischka Velasco: In 2011, Mischka Velasco created the final version of the company that now exists, a locally sourced, designed, marketed and produced contemporary womenswear and menswear company. Her tagline proudly proclaims "Handsewn with love in a magical studio in Soho." Velasco has thrown herself into every aspect of the business from fabric and sourcing to design and pattern making to fashion show production and sales. It has only been in the past year that she has started to employ other people, so she can make the design process her main focus. Mischka feels that one of the most important things an entrepreneur can do is to ensure that they understand all aspects of a new business from start to finish.
