Over the past 7 years Seattle Fashion Week has come to be known as one of the hottest events in the Pacific Northwest and has been recognized in the top twenty fashion shows in the United States. This year Seattle Fashion Week is back with an electrifying event themed Seattle Fashion Week (R)Evolution 2010.
Seattle Fashion Week has grown into a large scale event this year. The brand new location for the 2010 event is the Qwest Field, which has given us a chance to expand our events and showcase many more designers and retailers. We welcome our newest sponsor the Hard Rock Café, Seattle into our city and into our communities. Other major sponsors include Comcast, Gene Juarez Salon, Interior Design Coalition of Washington (IDCW), Susan G Komen and Nolcha - New York Fashion Week.
To encourage and provide spotlight to homegrown musical talent, the Seattle Fashion Week event will incorporate music along with fashion. We are giving 3 local upcoming artists a chance to entertain the Seattle community during the Seattle Fashion Week on the same platform as the runway show during May 13-15th 2010. This is our reminiscing of the Seattle music scene.
6 artists will be selected from 15 pre-selected artists this Thursday, March 25th 2010 at the Trinity Night Club. We have lined up three brilliant judges who will be auditioning the pre-selected artists to select the top 6. They are Allie Shaw, the Label Manager from Listen Records/Sony, Jubile Flagg, an on air personality from Seattle’s 106.1 Kiss FM and Amy Bauer, a Talent Buyer from Hard Rock Café. The 15 artists performing are Jennifer Newberry, Adrian Sims, Rocky, J Dot, Melissa Roork, L-Jay, Remedy, La Swagga, Fahren, Black Stax, Portia Monique, TAP TAP, Dennis Zender and ELOH.
