Yesterday VIP Talent Connect CEO Alycia Kaback met with acclaimed costume designer Patricia Fields who is most known for her work as the costume designer for Sex and the City, a show famous for its characters’ fashions. Her designs for the Sex and the City led to her nomination for five Emmy Awards, with one win, and six nominations for Costume Designers Guild Awards, with four wins. In addition to Sex and the City, Field’s television credits include Hope & Faith and Ugly Betty, as well as being the first guest judge on the Bravo’s Project Runway. Field also designed costumes that graced the silver screen for both Sex and the City movies and the The Devil Wears Prada, for which she was nominated for an Oscar for Best Costume Design. Field is one of the most successful costume designers and has been in constant demand by high society clientele. Everyone at VIP Talent is excited to be connected to such eminent designer.

"Jersey becoming the state of reality TV" VIP Talent Connect quoted in Star Ledger

In the opening scene of the new reality show “Jerseylicious,” Olivia Blois-Sharpe races to a job interview after a sleepless night of clubbing, her white Hummer swerving treacherously as she throws her head forward and douses it with hairspray.
“I can’t figure it out — I don’t know why I’m so late all the time,” says the Montville makeup artist, 22, still clad in a sequined leopard-print outfit from the night before. “Thank God I have a personal closet on wheels.”

Gayle Giacomo, owner of Gatsby Salon in Green Brook, stars in a new reality TV show called “Jerseylicious.”
“Experts warn the trend is self-perpetuating.”
“At his New York talent networking company, VIP Talent Connect, CEO Michael James said he’s noticed a surge in New Jersey reality star hopefuls at his events who appear to be imitating what they see on TV. The men arrive with open shirts, shaved chests and gelled hair. The women wear skintight outfits, stilettos, long nails and loud jewelry.”
“You’re starting to see reality mimic ‘reality,’ ” he said. “What people don’t realize is most of these kids will have a hard time getting a job in the industry after. Just as fast as those fans put you up on that pedestal, they’ll take you off of it.”
Already, there are signs that New Jersey’s 15 minutes of fame are almost up, he said. He pointed to a recent pitch for a reality show called “Brighton Beach,” about a group of young, vodka-chugging Russians in Brooklyn.
“We’ll move on to the next big thing,” he said.”
