The Fashion Hub
Yesterday Jadapa and I had the privilege of touring the brain trust behind Phoenix Fashion Week. We met Brian Hill, Executive Director of Phoenix Fashion Week at the Emerging Designers Challenge back in June. Mr. Hill was gracious enough to invite us to take a tour of the Fashion Week Headquarters, which the Fashion Week team refers to as “The Fashion Hub”, and learn more about the show this year.
I was elated when we arrived his afternoon and A Fashion Fiend was across the board in their conference room! Miss Abbei Marquis, the Designers and Buyers Leader, showed us around the suite – each office space, the work stations and photography studio. She explained the different work spaces and the benefits of each. She even hooked us up with some full size samples from a new make up line from Europe, No7, that will be debuting soon in Phoenix. The office has it all. Whether you’re a designer, photographer, model or blogger, The Fashion Hub is the perfect place for Fashion ideas to come alive and grow.
We were able to spend the afternoon discussing our blog and this year’s upcoming Phoenix Fashion Week with Mr. Brian Hill and Abbei. The Phoenix Fashion Week’s team is truly inspirational. All of the hard work and diligence that each member contributes is amazing, and they make it look effortless. A special shout out to Brian Hill, Abbei Marquis, Miss Dominique and everyone on the Phoenix Fashion Week Team – we love what you do and thank you!
