We don’t always get a chance to read blog posts, but one blog we LOVE to check out is Creators Vancouver, which spotlights some of the many talents this city has to offer.

We’ve set our focus on Modern Classics this week, and as we lead up to the show, we’re thinking more and more about what exactly makes something classic… Is it a style? An attitude?

We’re into the home stretch, and after so many months of thinking about our show, it feels so good to have it within sight… So this week, our final Spring 2018 focus is on the Modern Classic.

It’s Wednesday so that means we are halfway through our Eco Chic Week, but today also gets us to the 10 Days To Go mark for our First Pick Handmade Spring Show. We have been working on this show pretty much since our Fall show ended 6 months ago, and with every designer that has...Read More
