Mary Wilson Struts Stuff as HSBC Sets Up Catwalk for b. Michael

Sept. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Fashion designer b. Michael walked down the runway an hour before his show last night, instructing his models on how to strut and where to stop for poses.

He wasn't in the tents at Bryant Park across the street, where many designers have shown their spring 2008 collections during New York's Fashion Week. He was in the lobby of the U.S. headquarters of HSBC Holdings Plc, a Beaux-Arts building on Fifth Avenue.

At the end of its business day, the bank transformed the space for the 50-year-old designer's 30-minute show. More than 200 white folding chairs appeared on either side of the catwalk. The balcony took on sound and lighting systems. A zone near office cubicles and teller windows morphed into the hair and makeup station.

By 6 p.m., that area was bustling as specialists gussied up 20 models.
