Fendi holds fashion show on Great Wall of China

Built over 200 years before Christ to protect Chinese borders, now a cat walk for the rich and famous...

Guess I'm a loser because I've never heard of them, but designer Karl Lagerfield put on the show for Fendi.

"Fifties-style promdresses and fur jackets were highlighted on the stage by the Italian luxury goods company famous for its shoes, bags and geometric logo."

QUESTION: What do you think of the wall being used as a cat walk?

In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
