Product Runway Volume 2 will Rock Seattle: August 28th, 2009

In its second year, Product Runway (www.productrunway.com) again promises to be the event of the year and a showcase for the Puget Sound design community.  The event sold out in 2008, and is set for an even more exciting and entertaining encore!

peopleschoiceawards118 leading interior designers, architects, and students will flaunt their creativity by sending couture garments crafted from a diverse range of interior materials and finishes down the runway. Innovative teams from regional firms will design and construct their creations using everything from carpet to lighting – as they compete for prizes and bragging rights!

Serious Black

We don’t see many suspenders and tophats around here on the Eastside. If anything Capital Hill is all about this Broadway actor look, but do you think you can handle this?

Something about this look says that you care about your looks and has this artsi-ness. You love drama and you appreciate creativity.

An outfit like this is very complete. Would a techy Expedia or Microsoft employee rock it? Probably not. It’s not for everyone. To pull off this outfit, there must be a bit of confidence in that man and possibly some bravery.

Tory Burch in the House!

We are all excited that Tory Burch will open in The Shops at The Bravern September 12th in Bellevue. This past weekend they took over Seattle from Pike Place Market to all corners of the city to promote their new retail store here in Bellevue! Tap your TB flats…

Celebrated fashion designer Tory Burch will open her first Pacific Northwest boutique September 2009 at The Shops at The Bravern in downtown Bellevue, WA. The designer, beloved by women of all ages for a style that is both classic and modern, will offer ready-to-wear, handbags, shoes and jewelry in her 1,400 square foot boutique.

Day 29: Real Green

Emerald Green Fashion. Perfect for the Evergreen State of Washington. It’s rich color goes great with black.

Man up and Tie it

Have you gotten in the habit of wearing ties? Maybe this season it might be a good idea to do so.

What? It’s uncomfortable? It gets in your food? It’s high maintenance?

Ey Now!! Cut the complaining and toughen up. Trust me, it’ll put more confidence in  you.

You can thank me later.

Day 28: Jil Sander is unique

Great response from fashion critics. How can you not mention Jil Sander when the concept was so different from the rest of the shows? If someone can understand form of fabric on the human body it is Jil Sanders. “Scultures in fabrics, where is the auctioneer?”

Move Over Project Runway

…we have Product Runway here. Since it is an Eastside blog, of course I have to choose the Eastside group to represent, JPC Architects + Statements Tile whom formed a design partnership to participate in the industry’s most fashionable event, Product Runway.

The group is complete with the following professionals, the best in the industry:

  • Rebecca Durr –Interior Designer, NCIDQ
  • Jill Reid –Statements Tile Rep, LEED AP
  • Becky Dail –Interior Designer, strong sewing background – grew up sewing with her grandmother

Day 27: Show your legs

Thigh high boots to cover them legs and now we want to flaunt your legs with thigh-high slits.

And if you haven’t picked up the fact that Megan Fox is a huge fan of this trend, especially when it’s time for the red carpet.

Day 26: Hoodies from High Fashion

Who doesn’t know that the Pacific Northwest is all about sweatshirts, right? Well, as much as I am opposed to hoodies here, it is being accepted as a trend this season so take full advantage of it.
