We’re excited to announce another designer that will be featured in the Spring Fashion Market, Megan Kaltenbach with MKaltenbach!

Megan started designing jewelry during her free time while she was a full-time model living in the Financial District in Lower Manhattan. While working in front of the camera and at many showrooms in MYC, she became very interested in the fashion scene and started following and keeping up with the new trends. In May of 2010, she started making necklaces to fulfill her love for fashion.

She soon started wearing her designs around NYC and on fashion shoots, getting feedback from the rest of the New York fashion scene. After receiving requests for more of her necklaces, and fulfilling a few custom requests, Meg realized the passion she had for designing and creating jewelry.

Megan’s pieces are 100% original, providing the highest level of craftsmanship and fashion to her customers. She hand picks each stone and chain used to ensure every product sold is up to her standards. Each agate stone is examine for layers of colors, rings and/or crystals to ensure the highest quality.

We are excited to announce another designer apart of the Spring Market, LoHi Bags! LoHi bags are handmade for the modern girl. They are designed and are made locally in Denver, CO.

LoHi Bags was established in 2009 in the Lower Highlands neighborhood of Denver, a diverse urban community, right near downtown. Products are made with as much up-cycled or repurposed material as possible. This includes leather jackets, belts, upholstery scraps, vintage zippers, belt buckles, etc. We’re a big fan of sourcing materials from local thrift shops that support social good, such as Arc and Goodwill. Ralph’s Power Sewing in Jefferson Park is our favorite neighborhood supply shop. The leather we use is stylish and weathered, but that is the beauty of it. Each bag has a history.

The aesthetic is very simple and functional design, mixing neutral fabric with little pops of color, like a bright green zipper, colorful lining or hot pink stripe. The bags are made one-by-one without the use of patterns, so the design and construction process is pretty organic. They have an urban/bohemian vibe that fit the neighborhood, and they are one of a kind.

We are excited to announce the first designer, Sinath Jerome part of Regal Rowe.

Throughout Sinath’s life, she has been immersed in the design and construction of fashion apparel and accessories. From her earliest childhood memories of growing up in Cambodia, she has been intoxicated with the possibilities of molding color, texture and structure into the real-life product of her imagination. Now, under her brand, Regal Rowe, her passion is now vocation.

For Sinath, fashion design is the pinnacle of artistic expression, improved only by the close personal connection to the person wearing the finished creation. She is enamored with the design process as it is born through a vision through her mind’s eye, which she brings to life through her sketch process. This begins the steps of refinement of the garment as she tests the flow and styling on a drawn canvas. Once she has created a range … Read more!
