Photos: Habesha Fashion Show - 2009 Summer Collection

"Ethnic Blossom," a Habesha fashion show featuring designs by Sheilla Constance Sidney, took place at the Xiang Yang Elite Villa on Jianguo West Road Friday night. Sidney was born in Guyana, grew up in Paris, and named her fashion collection "Habesha" after an Ethiopian word meaning "to mix." Sidney's clothing line fuses traditional African and Chinese styles and patterns. Habesha will also be online (nothing there now, the website is still under construction).
