ahhh, runway

The zipper from the Heaven Gallery Show. Why yes, Tony's red cords coordinate with the red turtleneck on AJ behind him. Accident? I think not.

Well folks, another day, another show. And this one was *such* a good one! I couldn't be more thrilled with how everything turned out! I'd like to thank Christina Elizabeth for coming to shoot the lookbook, and to Sean Stevenson for the amazing makeup. To my boys, Erik, Brian, Benjamin, Jake, Tony, Joseph, Matt, and AJ, you are my heartsong. I make the clothes, you make them magic, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Once again I was completely blown away and humbled by the tremendous amount of support I received from my family and friends. To see your faces in the crowd, to know that your weekend included a night for me, there are no words that can express my gratitude. Thank you all so very much!
Now I'm looking forward to the Spring/Summer collection! I hope you all are ready for some color!

Fashion Show

Erin Gotwals and I just went to Wicker Park to reserve a spot at Rodan for an after party. Any and all people in or around Chicago on JANUARY 16 should probably come to Heaven Gallery 1550 N. Milwaukee Ave. at 8pm for our fashion show!
In addition to our Winter collections you'll get the first peek at the new Spring lines from both our houses! (okay, so our "fashion houses" are still our actual apartments, but you KNOW it's only a matter of time before we have our own fashion houses out in the real world, and that doesn't negate the fact that we're making some pretty amazing new designs!)
I hope to see all of you there!

January 16
