Fashion's Night Out 2012

Last night I attended Fashion’s Night Out at The Bellevue Collection. What a wonderful evening they planned.

Last year was fun, but this year they decided to add so much more to the event. 

Center Court was the place to be. Not only did they have great food and entertainment, but as an added surprise, they were showing fashions from our independent Seattle designers.

 Both Lizzie Parker and Lisa Vian Hunter from NBC's Fashion Star were present, and I got to chat with both of them about their upcoming show and creations. 

 I also got to meet with Carole McClellan, who created an amazing menswear look. 

On second glance, she told me a little bit about her inspiration for her design.

 Look at the detail on this jacket!  What I didn't know is that it was made out of denim! The buttons, she informed me, were found at a flee market in Paris.

 Carole has personally dressed alot of rockers, and loves working with unique fabrics, using leather, fur, and stretch velvet.

 Like me, she also loves to add creative touches of jewelry and vintage pieces. I am looking forward to seeing more from this designer. 

I loved the details in the fashions that I saw there. Fabrics were rich, everything from brocade to black satin,to silk with hand stitched flowers and touches of pearl. 

The flow of soft knits and hand crochet dresses were also present.  The overall feeling was one of elegance and a sense of true femininity.

I'm excited for the seasons ahead.  I love the combination of edgy mixed with soft, black teamed with cool metallic accessories, and boho chic.
