Innovative Mash Up Of Colorado Art And Apparel

DENVER, CO – Multiblazer, a Denver-based innovator of custom men’s and women’s blazers, today announces the launch of their Homegrown menswear line. Homegrown is the evolution of a popular theme found in local apparel, where elements of the Colorado state flag are incorporated in the design of the blazer.

Maintaining its tradition of creating custom looks for clients, a limited run of 100 Homegrown blazers will be available for purchase online and at various Denver based apparel stores.

homegrown-1“The Homegrown multiblazer is a project that started with a Facebook promotion, where we gave away a free Colorado themed multiblazer,” said Luc Cisna, Co-Owner at Multiblazer. “That promotion gained a lot of attention from our fans so we decided to develop another sample with the Fashion Design Center Denver which was finished just in time for for the 2015 Urban Night’s Fashion Show. When it was shown there, it got a huge round of applause and a ton of post show interest from everyone there, so we decided that the Homegrown will be our next line of multiblazers to produce.”

“Colorado nonprofit hosting fundraising party to raise money and support to open the first emergency shelter for underage girls rescued from sex trafficking.”

Sex trafficking in minors is an increasing problem that is beginning to come to light and community awareness is on the rise. Homeless Denver youth are at great risk of falling victim to traffickers. A child on the streets can be desperate to have even their most basic needs met. Many of these children are running away from abusive and broken homes. Within 24-48 hours of running away, 1 out of 3 teens will be approached by a trafficker.

It’s difficult to find these children and even when they are “rescued”, there are very few options for their treatment and housing. Currently, there is no emergency housing set up specifically for underage girls once they are rescued by law enforcement. Emergency housing that is open 24/7 is much needed, so that these victims don’t find themselves in detention centers, jail or homeless again.

Extended Hands of Hope began with the mission to fill in that gap in a small way. We realized the great … Read more!
