PARTY: Von Z Boutique Opening
VENUE: Von Z, 1872-1N North Damen Avenue
DATE: Wednesday, June 26th
THE LURE: Cropping up on the powerful new style stretch of Damen Avenue in Bucktown is our new favorite fashion pit stop: Von Z. The sleek store boasts a roster of designers with pieces that pack a trendy punch with an affordable price tags (we’re spying things from $40 to $100!). It’s the brainchild of fashionista Jenna Zielbauer, whose own fashion label Cotton Candy Couture dots some of the racks, alongside her hubby Patrick. The dynamic duo teamed up with G&F to welcome in a ready-to-shop crowd who bopped along to summer tunes by Platinum Events’ Justin Jacobsen, sipped Peroni and took part in G&F’s friendly competition to name the next #VonZGirl. A week before the event, we gathered six stylish gal pals to come style themselves in Von Z collections and displayed the results in poster-size for the guests. The results were close, but Ashley Scott took home the coveted crown. >>
