Halloween at Fashion Denver

It’s no secret that we LOVE to celebrate Halloween pretty much the entire month of October and we’re gearing up for the fun season with a few items at Fashion Denver that will get you ready!

Designer Katie Wells of GiddyUp, just dropped off about a dozen costumes for adults and children.  Her whimsical designs are sure to make your costume stick out from the rest! Be a Killer Bee, or The Girl that got Shot Out of a Cannon, or a pirate princess! Stop in and see the rest of the costumes before they sell out.

Not quite into the costume thing but don’t want to go out completely normal? Try a WINGBANDIT! These cute headbands with wings come in a variety of colors and if you want, you can even get your logo or your name on them!

Artwork by Max Kauffman

Last night I went to an art show curated by my friend Melissa and I was so excited to run into an old acquaintance and artist Max Kauffman. Something about his artwork is so delicate and meaningful. I love the recurring theme of the cassette tape in most of his pieces and love the color schemes that he uses. We’re hoping to have an artshow featuring Max’s work in November! I would also love to see his designs on tees and tote bags! We’re new fans here at Fashion Denver!

To see Max’s artwork along with some other fantastic artists, check out Black Book Gallery for the show Art Capsule! 555 Santa Fe Dr.… Read more!
