A Chelsea Parking Garage Was Siki Im's Choice Runway
Amelia Roblin — September 10, 2010 — Pop Culture
Seeing designer fashion in an everyday light can be difficult when it's featured on a runway, but guests got to witness this Siki Im couture catwalk in a West Chelsea parking garage.
Draped in the grungy and androgynous collection, the male models suited the venue to the hilt. Dim lighting and tire treads added to the derelict atmosphere of Siki Im's dark clothing line, giving the collection plenty of attitude and edge.
