Welcome to #36: Indie Fashion, All the Time

What’s Going On

The craze of NYC Fashion Week has arrived, and with it a blanket of sparkling snow! Bloggers are in a tizzy, with good reason, out there covering shows to bring you details and images galore. Want to see a runway show? Well, it’s not too hard to catch a livestream this season. We love how fashion is becoming more accessible to you, wherever you are. Mostly we love how tech is making it easier for you to connect with designers everywhere making your clothes – THAT is fabulous.

Connect in Cali

We dedicate this newsletter to all of the Darling designers out there promoting their work all the time, and the communities supporting them. We can’t get everyone in one email, but you get the drift. Oakland based Darlings, FiftySeven-Thirty Three have a good thing going on. Buy up some of their sweet screenprinted goodies and show it off. Join their Flickr Beautiful People group, or better yet -click here- to show off your sexy and win in their latest contest. FInd them and be a fan on Facebook.

Chicago Darlings

With the Chicago Fashion Incubator supporting emerging designers in the windy city there is a steady stream of indie fashion happenings rolling in. Darlings Anna Hovet, Lara Miller, and Che Woo Designs,  immediately pop into our head. We are thrilled that these darlings have so much support in their community. If you are in the Chicago area, or headed there for a weekend, keep an eye on the Darling blog – there is sure to be an event supporting indie designers while you are there!
Follow what all of these Darlings are doing on Twitter:

Ohhhh Miami

The snow is falling here, sun is shining there. No matter the weather, Karelle Levy, designer of Krelwear, either has an event (or two or three) happening, is planning one, or is at her studio (or maybe at the Standard) knitting her heart out. If you get the chance to have her whip you up a piece of quickie-couture, ask her what it’s like to be an independent designer, and get ready to be inspired. If you are in Miami anytime soon, check out her installation: Oh The Tangled Webs We Weave.
