PARADISE TOWNSHIP, MONROE COUNTY - Bravo and Mun2 were in the Poconos Thursday. They were filming a fashion shoot at the Mount Airy Casino Resort. Fashion Designer Stacy Igel said, "This place is beautiful. It's amazing. The accommodations are incredible."
Stacy is the founder and creative director of the Boy Meets Girl clothing line. She designs clothes for what she calls "the female hustler." She explained, "She's a designer, she's an actress, she's a singer and she's gambling and she's also typing on her computer - on her cell phone." She added that the casino captured that vibe. She chose Mount Airy over Harrah's and Trump Casinos in Atlantic City. She explained, "I knew that they had redone it two years ago and I was really fascinated by what had changed."
Dominca Denaples introduced her to the place. Dominca's family owns the casino. Dominica owns a boutique that sells Boy Meets Girl clothes. It's called Denim Diner in Clarks Summit. Stacy said, "It's one of my best stores that I work with."
Stacy also works with celebrity stylists and make up artists like Lauren Manzo. Lauren is on Real Housewives of New Jersey. She loved her trip to Mount Airy. She laughed, "I'm like Oh My God this is amazing."
Celebrity Hair Stylist Tara Smith was also there. She was voted Celebrity Hair Dresser of the Year in England. She smiled, "I'm really happy to be here."
Dominca summed it up, "We have fashion designers, make up artists, hair stylist - you don't get that every day in Mount Pocono Pennsylvania so it's fun for everybody."
Photographers shot in ten different locations on the casino property. They include the entertainment lounge, casino floor and kitchen. | |
