First Ever Jaya Designs Fashion Show!!








On a Sunday afternoon infused with the promise of a season of warmth and joy, I joined my dear friend Terry Barnes at her spacious, gorgeous home in Brookeville, Maryland for the inaugural Jaya Designs Fashion Show and Tea! An expansion of the private selling events I did last year, the April 11, 2010 event featured my beautiful friends and relatives as they modeled my Maharajah Collection's dresses, handbags, tops, girls' dresses and men's neckties. An appreciative audience applauded the show and supported the designs and my charitable cause (Community Uplift Projects, International) with their purchases of the authentic and beautiful products.

My heartfelt and lifelong thanks to everyone who made the event successful:
-My stunning models - Dana Joseph, Seema Khandagle, Michelle Koilpillai and Alisha Ladenburg for bringing Jaya Designs pieces to life in a beautiful way;
-Makeup and hair artist Nina Joseph for making us all beautiful;
-Greg David and Ross Patterson for photography and videography;
- the amazing Amol Pandit, for coordinating all the participants and his planning skills as well as wonderful fashion sense;
-My dear friends and supporters Terry and Danny Barnes who offered their hospitality and wonderful home for the event; and who constantly encourage me in this design endeavor;
-Most of all - my creative and handsome husband John and sweet budding model daughter Adriana for modeling the newest items in the Jaya Designs family and for supporting my creativity in all its forms, and for offering me the love it takes to be inspired every day.

Watch for more!!

All the best,
Jaya
