When was the last time there was a fashion show on B&B?

I know COVID restrictions probably meant that they couldn't film them for awhile.  However, there have been so many recent pop culture moments that came from fashion shows in NY, Milan, and now Paris, that it made me wonder when was the last time that Forrester Creations had a runway show?

LOL. I was guessing Thomas deliberately set it up with his friend Walter (the new Vinny lol?) but that could or work. I feel like it’s going to come completely out of left field about who called CPS.

I think the last one may have been whatever that crappy fashion show Xander Avant and Emma Barber put on in 2018 I think. At least that’s the last one I remember.

I'm disgusted by the CPS story.  Supposedly the Forresters got a recording of the call from one of their "informants" within the system.  It is so gross to portray the idea that CPS would leak an anonymous tip.  Soaps regularly treat the family court system as corrupt by suggesting that custody would be withheld due to the wealth and power of a family, or social workers are nosy villains out to rip children away from their parents.  But, I think it sends an irresponsible message to suggest that suspected child abuse reporting is not anonymous (as it usually occurs online). 

I also think it is as disheartening to portray the reporting of child abuse as retribution as it is to have the grandfather of the abused child be more concerned about the report than the trauma of the potential harm.

    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
