Just wanted everyone to know that Portland Fashion Week is in full blown GREEN swing. This year they are priding themselves on being greener than ever. For the first time since the shows debut in 2003, they will not only showcase independent designers using sustainable fabrics and practices, they will produce the show with the same commitment to sustainability. The Runways are being built with eco-friendly materials, the models will be styled with environmentally sound products and the guests will stay at sustainable certified hotels. The event kicked off on Friday, OCT.19. It runs through Wednesday, Oct. 24. Our very own smashing darling Lara Miller will be showing on the last night, wrapping the show up with a bang.
If anyone has a fashion event they would like to submit for consideration in the blog, go to the Smashing Darling homepage and use the contact link at the bottom of the page. Please feel free to join the forum and list your fashion event there too.
