Last call out for designers for our Spring Market!

Happy Friday everybody! It sure is nice to have the sun shine and busines pick back up and get back into the swing of things. We’ve recently remodeled Fashion Denver and opened up our boutique / showroom to reach to the back! What a difference movement makes. Last week was hectic getting everything back into place but the hard work payed off. New paint on the walls and new inspiration as we head into spring. If you are interested in being showcased in our showroom, contact me and let’s set up an appointment. Otherwise, stop by and see the fresh new space 🙂

Hello world! Hope to see you First Friday!

Wow! We have been busy busy bees over at Fashion Denver, painting, rearranging, and opening up our space to extend our showroom all the way to the very back. This week we’ve been unburying ourselves from under the fashions, putting it all back together but in a NEW AND IMPROVED way!  It’s amazing how rearranging creates such new energy!

We’re excited to open up our doors tomorrow (First Friday!) and invite you to come and see the new space! Our doors will be open during the First Friday Art Walk from 6pm-9pm. Drop by on your way to Santa Fe or Rhino or swing back around on your way back! We’ll have Chella Negro doing an instore performance with Sammy T djing.  We’ll also have a paper doll station.  Hope to see you then!

Planning for the week ahead…

It’s late night on Sunday night and I’m sitting with my notebook open, computer on, calendar in front of me, getting ready for the busy week we have ahead of us. The week brings me meetings with new designers, a new PR / web client, the launch of the CRAVE DENVER book, an interview with Tiffany Meese of the Centennial, and a fun party at the end of the week. I want to be organized and ready so I can keep up with what we’ve got on the calendar and make room for more.  It’s important to stay on top of everything but sometimes very hard.

We’ve got so many new fashions at Fashion Denver!  Designers have been putting in more spring styles. I’m sure we’ll have a few more snowstorms in between now and spring, but our mind is with warmer temperatures.

Happy Monday!… Read more!

Where does the time go?

We’ve had such a busy week here at Fashion Denver! The sunshine helped lift our spirits and through us into a work frenzy planning for spring. Currently we are working on:

– New designers for March

– First Friday March Event

– Closet makeover benefit and style event for The Gathering Place

– Our Spring Fashion Market on May 15th at the Grant-Humphreys Mansion

And! Transitioning into spring.  We know that we’ll still have some winter days of snow and chilliness, but we’d like to bring as much sunshine in as we can right now.

Tomorrow we’ll be attending Artopia and next week is the Crave Launch that we’re featured in. We’re very excited to be part of that event and the book!

Stay tuned for next weeks exciting adventures at Fashion Denver!… Read more!
