PARTY: Remi Canarie Launch Party
VENUE: Room 1520, 1520 W. Fulton
DATE: Thursday, February 7th
THE LURE: For the designers behind Remi Canarie, a little launch party was far from it when Chicago’s fashion heavy hitters hit up a laid back affair at Room 1520 to check out the newest first duds from the School of the Art Institute alum design team. Liz Patelski and Lisa Rigney’s aesthetic for their fall/winter collection? Classic cool drawing inspiration from ‘20’s football uniforms with heavy nods to menswear resulting in a surprisingly feminine line. That was a mouthful, but seriously, the down-to-earth pair has delivered a divinely versatile collection that is sure to be on the lips (and hips!) of many for seasons to come. >>
