Who needs a structured LA Fashion Week? Certainly not couture designer Kevan Hall, a man who knows just how to make women look good, no matter what the setting. In a time when the Spring 2010 shows are haphazardly scattered all over town, Hall chose to show his striking new line entitled "The Getaway" at Spartacus Square on the Universal Studios Hollywood backlot, the culmination of an outdoor "Night of Luxury" presented by Rusnak Auto Group.

The party started with Rusnak reveals of the latest models of top-tier automobiles, from Jaguar, Rolls-Royce, and Porsche - who presented

the Panamera, the company's first four-door sports car. We'll take the sleek 500hp Turbo ($132,000 sticker price), but there's no way we're sitting in the back seat.

Deep-pocketed car enthusiasts wandered the cobblestone streets of the back lot, sipping Courvoisier cocktails and Maddalena wines, puffing on complimentary cigars, and sliding in and out of the cockpits of those luxury rides, but when the Kevan Hall show was about to begin, the well-heeled crowd raced for prime seats to witness his "Getaway" collection.

Gorgeous Natasha Henstridge graced the front row, along with Miss California Tami Farrell (crown, sash, and all, which is a weird way to travel, even for a beauty queen), ex-NBA star John Salley, current "90210" stud Trevor Donovan, "Cougar Town" breakout hottie Nick Zano, Hall's famous actor-director bro Vondie Curtis-Hall, and even 12-year-old Isabelle Fuhrman, who looked much prettier than she did as the demon seed in this year's creepiest horror flick "Orphan."

Once everyone jostled into their seats, and amid gasps of delight, cheers, and appreciative applause, Hall's models zoomed down the steep faux Roman steps and onto the runway. Beginning with a striking crimson red short silk "roadster" dress, Hall changed gears from his multi-colored looks of past seasons and went with all solid colors, tones ranging from lavender to slate, indigo to marigold, mauve to onyx.

But as always, Hall's day- and eveningwear designs featured breathtakingly beautiful tailoring and extremely wearable looks. From the 1950's-influenced tuxedo dress to the cutting-edge modernity of a brilliantly hued coral satin "origami" gown, Hall offered up swooningly lovely, figure-flattering designs.

As actress Haylie Duff exclaimed after seeing the two incredible mauve gowns (one made of luminous patterned matelasse, the other of crystal encrusted silk satin) that wrapped the show, "I can't wait for the next red-carpet gala! I want to wear every one of the gowns I saw tonight." Amen, sister, we feel exactly the same way.
