Join Fashion Denver and the Denver Art Museum at Untitled as we present Habitat, a designer challenge! Inspired by the The Art of Bark Cloth  exhibit at the DAM, designers have been asked to design what “habitat” means to them and with full creative freedom, each designer will express this on canvas. With this artwork on canvas, designers will then make a handbag with the canvas. Friday night, all of the designers will be at the barkcloth exhibit with their bags on display and a designer discussion will take place at 7:30 where guests can learn about what inspired the design of each bag, designer’s habitat, and more!

Featured designers:
Deb Henriksen | Equilibrium
Olivia McLean | ViVi
Sunrose Ironshell | Warrior Status
Sarah Secrist | LoHi Bags
Brandi Shigley | b.shigley designs

Also! We’ll be holding a #DamWhat’sInMyBag contest where guests can instagram the contents of their bag along with the hashtag. We’ll pick a winner at 9:30 in the main atrium of the DAM … Read more!

Dress Drive a Success!

Leave a comment

We had an amazing Sunday this past Sunday as we raised money and shared our Colorado talent at our Sunshine Daydream Dress Drive.

Over 150+ dresses were made and will be shipped out to Haiti (through the non-profit organization Love A Child)  and the Philippines (my orphanage that I stayed at as a baby, the RSCC in Quezon City). We were also able to raise over $1500 for Love A Child! $1500 will go so far in Haiti!

Thank you designers, Studio Salon, the Urban Angels for partnering up on this event with us! 20150614_090043

After visiting my orphanage in the Philippines last month, my heart has a new purpose and it is to share with those in need as much as I possibly can! I met a wonderful bunch of children at my orphanage and was overjoyed by the wonderful staff and their kindness.

As I incorporate this life changing trip into my life here in Denver, I couldn’t think of a more perfect way to give back to my roots AND incorporate Fashion Denver than to partner up with the Urban Angels and Studio Salon for a dress drive! I am so grateful to the Urban Angels for letting me team up with them on this project to give back to the orphanage in which I came from! THANK YOU!

Here’s how it works!
