Orders???? and other updates!

Well, it's been two weeks since we dropped the samples off at Intermix and still no word. I hope we hear some great feedback, but you never know how these things work out. They have had them for two weeks, which is great, there was also Thanksgiving holiday within these two weeks, Oh well, sometimes its a waiting game. We hope for the best!


DAILY CANDY
So we are going to have a story done on JAUNT by DailyCandy!!! The Dallas edition. I'm really excited about it because it has the potential to create an awareness of our line. I was emailing back and forth all day yesterday with the editor sending pics and info for the story. They are super great for considering us as a story and we wish them all the thanks in the world!! Please check out their website, you can find a link on the right side of the page.

FortyFiveTen
We are still waiting to hear back from FortyFiveTen about an order....I sent an email yesterday just to follow up with the buyer. Everyone is always so busy in this industry!!! It's cool though....we are very excited that they have considered us at all. The boutique really is a testament to design driven fashion and luxury and is merchandised with the utmost attention to detail!

FALL
Through everything we have to get done for Spring and getting press we also have to begin working on the Fall collection! I am really excited about what we have planned for the Fall. We are still going to keep some of the same idea going, offering pieces that are "generous" in fit and still flattering. We are also adding a few pieces to the collection that will be more "tailored," they are not strictly tailored, but it is something with a little more structure. The quality of fabric is still going to a knit. It's an amazing knit that we have sourced and it has such a great hand to it! (feel to it) it will be exactly what we need to do some lightweight jackets, blazers, skirts and some bitchy pants!
It is always easier for me to work with moods and themes when designing. It keeps everything cohesive and really helps to create the look of a collection. We have chosen some nice details for the collection this season concerning finishing and construction. The whole theme is inspired by moths. These are extremely interesting to both Diego and I and is turning out to be an extraordinary resource of inspiration for everything from finishing to color palette.
Also, for Fall we are going to do a few accessories in the collection that will be really fashion forward! They will be accessories like scarves, etc. things to wear and accent with clothing. We have a pic of the trend board we are using for Fall!



Fall is sizing up to be a very interesting season for us!

BTW we are still waiting to hear about when the meeting for Neiman's is.....I know things do not happen over night, but sometimes it is so hard to be patient!!!
