Focus on Fashion.
Amanda Hunt, NBC5 Street TeamFashionistas your week has arrived!! 2007 Fashion Focus Chicago is this week, October 9th-14th and it's The Windy City's response to our clothing cravings. As many critics have shamelessly exhorted, when you look for fashion you look in New York or Milan. But like many surprise championships, the underdog is underestimated and that is why Chicago is poised to grow as a premiere location for cutting-edge couture and delicious designers.
Here is the low down-
October 9-14th - Shopping Tours. Grab the best fall looks and neighborhood deals with Urban Shop Guide. Locations vary so phone first- 312.744. 2400.
October 11-30th - 4 Lines: A Fashion Exhibition and Installation. Edgy fashion, visual art and featured designers such as Shane Gabier and Anke Loh!! 312. 744.2400.
- Apparel Industry. Red hot runway fashion, cocktails, producer Susan Glick, and legendary photographer, Victor Skrebneski sit as Creative Chair. 312.836.1041.
October 12th - Macy's on State Street. Chicago-based designers showcase their Fall 2007 and Spring 2008 collections, 312.781.5454.
October 13th - Gen Art's Shop Chicago. Spa treatments, gift bags, and emerging designers and boutiques from across the country, 312.229.1701.
October 14th - The Allure of Couture: Fashion Week Finale. Ground-breaking producer Barbara Samuels and Markus Ford seal the deal with fashion forward designers such as: Barbara Bates, Double Stitch, James De Colon, and Nick Cave. 312.744.2400.
Now if you missed Sven Asmus's Bentley Gold Coast preview for The Allure of Couture or Macy's Distinction and Gen Art's Fresh Faces on October 9th, you are behind the eight ball and in serious violation. Do not loose your fashion card..... regain credibility by viewing fashionfocuschicago.com and then hit the streets (fashion tip- wear flats).
