MNfashion Weekend events have just been announced. Mark your calendars for September 19 – 23, and be sure to check the trunk shows, happy hours, and workshops by Minnesota designers (and those who love them). This is the closest thing we’ve got to our own Fashion Week, my friends. And as the local fashion community continues to grow, evolve, and exponentially improve, let’s just hope this weekend becomes an annual rite of fall. My picks from the 2007 lineup: the Minnesota Historical Society Collections tour (I got to troll through their archives a while back and it was fun, fun, fun!), the Red Shoe Clothing Company Fall Line and Website Launch (hello hip), and the Sunday afternoon fashion illustration workshop (everyone’s a poseur).
If you’re really anxious for these affairs, then you might care to know that the Design Collective, Minnesota’s only Minnesota-only boutique, is having a sale this very weekend. Stop by to sample Minnesota-made clothing, carry-alls, and duct-tape accessories.
