15 min. Admin — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 16:07:12 +0000

Street Style festivities include fashion shows on Glenarm Place from Forever 21, Express, Banana Republic and Gap with runway models from Wilhelmina, a performance by Ballet Nuevo Colorado, tunes from local DJs, hair designs and tips by stylists from Matthew Morris' salon and the makeup team from Bare Escentuals.

Tami Door, president of the Downtown Denver Partnership, Paul Washington, chief of Denver's economic development and Mark Sidell, president of Gart Properties will receive Street Style makeovers from local stylists.

The event also includes a "Cut & Sew Challenge" contest sponsored by the Denver Art Museum and hosted by "Project Runway" season 9 contestant Fallene Wells.

The Denver Art Museum will host a collection from the late French couturier Yves Saint Laurent. As a challenge, four local designers – Melissa May, Trisha Hoke, Heidi Busk and Rachel Marie Hurst will compete to create an outfit inspired by YSL. The designers will work on Glenarm Place so the crowd can watch the process. Judges include Donald Peterson, the Honorary Consul of Sweden and Brittney Peterson local costume designer and Consular Agent to the Royal Consul of Sweden, Darrin Alfred, Design Curator from the Denver Art Museum, and Beth Bradley, Associate Editor, Sew News.

Murals focusing on Denver-based cultural themes designed by Like Minded productions for Art Institute of Colorado, Sandra Fetting for Visit Denver and Joel Duvall Feldt for the Downtown Denver Partnership will be showcased throughout the event.

"We pulled in our network of community and cultural partners to develop programming for Street Style. Samuel Schimek, curator and owner of the I HEART Denver store at Denver Pavilions was instrumental in that process," added Manning.

Printed on transparency just like in the future! I personally love to create a trekkie product to hide out there for sale in the real world. You never know when you are standing next to a trekie until you see them get excited about seeing something like this! Printed on 8x10 transparency for easy framing.

I had the opportunity to put together a fun marketing campaign with Denver Pavilions. With purchase of $25 customers can come out the plaza and choose a flashy Denver inspired graphic to be printed on a canvas tote. Live silk screening in the south plaza of Denver Pavilions provides a fun experience for downtown employees during Downtown Employee Appreciation Week and creates a promo that supports local artists and gives consumers something really exciting for their participation!
