Atsuko Kudo debut runway show in New York

Atsuko Kudo is very pleased to announce her debut runway show in New York this autumn. The show will take place as part of ‘Lingerie New York’ at Cipriani’s fabulous 42nd St venue.

Atsuko Kudo is the headline show and the event will also feature the beautiful couture lingerie of Belgian designer Carine Gilson as well as an aerial show by Cirque du Soliel.

Lingerie New York is a philanthropic event created by the 7 Bar Foundation – an organisation founded by Renata Mutis Black and closely supported by legendary guru to the stars, Deepak Chopra and which aims to provide a direct link between the glamour and female empowerment of cutting edge lingerie design and the micro financing of projects which assist women in the US (and other countries) to empower themselves out of poverty by setting up their own small businesses.

The previous event in the series was 2009’s Lingerie Miami and featured Agent Provocateur hosted by Eva Longoria Parker. For New York in 2010 the wish is to raise the bar further.

Atsuko Kudo is very happy to have been asked to do the show as of course femininity and latex power are definitely at the centre of the Atsuko Kudo world!

Atsuko will be presenting an entirely new collection for the New York show and this will represent (as far as we know) the first entirely latex full scale runway show anywhere in the world.

We’ll be sure to keep you posted on news about this unique occasion. In the meantime you can see more about the work of the 7 Bar Foundation here:-
