Last week I had the EXTREMELY FABULOUS opportunity to visit Pasadena's Peek-A-Boo Gallery for their "The Friendly Skies: The Art of High Altitude Travel" Exhibition. Not only did I visit, but I also filmed various LIVE TV segments for KTLA's Gayle Anderson discussing the chic Airline Couture on display as the FIDM Fashion Design Co-Chair--as well as an avid airline aficionado!
