Portland. Fashion. Week. It’s the hot spot to be in Portland during the week of Oct. 7-11, 2009. Be there. Need a reason to believe … Two of P-town’s extraordinary designers - Anna Cohen and Michelle Decourcy are launching new lines. Reason to believe No. 2 … Jantzen is launching its 100-year anniversary swimwear collection. No. 3, 4 and 5? You the audience will get to vote on the best new designer, four of the biggest NW designers from Seattle and BC AND It is so, so, so fun.

I’m especially excited to see the Jantzen Swimwear 100-year swimwear collection… can’t wait for that. Oh and the old (hehe) designers that have graced the runways of Portland for the past few years like Idom and Amai Unmei – plus I also can’t wait for  the likes of Lizzie Parker (Seattle) and Mountains of the Moon (Chicago).

Lisa Dixon, Jantzen’s Senior Designer says this about that … “For the ’09 Jantzen collection, I was inspired by the glamour days of the 1950s, its Hollywood starlets and the timeless styles of this iconic fashion decade. The collection represents the juxtaposition of classic vintage with a modern interpretation of swimwear. Silhouettes include retro inspired maillots to ultra high waisted belted bottoms with tiny bandeau tops to ruffled corset-like tankinis.”
