For New York\u2019s Fashion Week, Scotch and Soda presented their Fall-Winter collection in front of jaw-dropping production effects and musical talent to create not only a fashion show, but an experience. Mountain Productions built the scaffold structure that supported the show, and the original challenge for this event was the need for completely open bays.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4517\" style=\"width: 1018px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ss-blog.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4517\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4517\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ss-blog.jpg\" alt=\"Photo sourced from Scotch &amp; Soda\u2019s Pinterest \" width=\"1008\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ss-blog.jpg 1008w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ss-blog-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ss-blog-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4517\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo sourced from Scotch &amp; Soda\u2019s Pinterest<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Scotch and Soda job called for multiple scaffold towers assembled together with open bays to showcase the fashion models.

For Calvin Klein\u2019s 40<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary event, Mountain Productions was tasked with constructing an entire building in an empty parking lot for the show.

Mountain\u2019s crew also built a custom bridge to allow access to the high line and catwalk. The main component used was our Supermega Truss (SMT) roof structure which provided the strength needed to support the building. Scaffold bays surrounded the SMT roof grid, and the scaffold substructure was used for the sheetrock framing. Mountain\u2019s welding shop custom fabricated brackets for all of the lumber, both inside and outside of the structure, to attach to the scaffolding. Altogether, Mountain\u2019s entire range of fabrication shops came together to build a completely unique structure for the Calvin Klein 40<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary event.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build1-blog.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4520\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build1-blog.jpg\" alt=\"ck-build1-blog\" width=\"1008\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build1-blog.jpg 1008w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build1-blog-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build1-blog-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build2-blog.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4521\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build2-blog.jpg\" alt=\"ck-build2-blog\" width=\"1008\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build2-blog.jpg 1008w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build2-blog-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainproductions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ck-build2-blog-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Moncler Grenoble Fashion Show on Chelsea Piers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Famously known for their high-end down jackets and premium ski enthusiast apparel, Moncler launched their Grenoble line in the beginning of the fall in 2010.
