The highlight of the day will be a maternity fashion show presented by A Pea in the Pod, hosted by Amy Tara Koch, best-selling author of "Bump it Up," and produced by Expecting Models. The show features fashions that will transport you to an exotic summer excursion. Featuring the same exuberant palette of the region's flora, this collection incorporates multi-color prints, rich embroideries, airy fabrics and looks for every occasion in order to create a fresh Marrakech vibe.
The one-of-a-kind finale piece, designed by A Pea in the Pod Collection™'s Elizabeth Shane Quinn, combines the vibrancy of the Moroccan culture with the eco-friendly conscience so important in today's world. Using 100% all natural fabrics and hand-dying techniques, this show-stopping convertible gown will undergo a dramatic transformation at the slip of a ribbon.
Quinn's tenure with A Pea in the Pod and A Pea in the Pod Collection includes designing dresses, woven tops, jackets, and skirts for the high-end maternity brands. She recently designed an evening gown for Laila Ali that was featured in New York Fashion Week's Annual Heart Truth runway show.
