THE FINERIE Designer Set - FASHION FIRST Seattle 2011

The Finerie features two stellar local designers, HEILYKE, designed by Heili Aun Nalla, and Madina Vadache’s couture quality designs. Both designer collections are available downtown at The Finerie.



HEILYKE is an original line influenced by Heili's formal training and techniques she learned in Europe, fused with the artistic environment she enjoys in Seattle. Her elegant, well-crafted creations first graced the FASHION FIRST runway as "Best in Show" from Seattle Magazine's Seamless in Seattle set last year.

For Madina Vadache, art and fashion cannot be separated. Whether the piece is a custom-made wedding gown, an architectural blouse, or a hand-painted silk tee shirt, Vadache applies the same level of couture-inspired skill to everything she crafts.

Lizzie Parker's FASHION FIRST Inspirations

by Candice Caldwell

Local designer Lizzie Parker is pulling double duty at FASHION FIRST this year; first as the show's Creative Director and secondly as a Runway Sponsor, creating her Fall 2010 collection to be showcased on the runway.

Best of all, Lizzie is letting us all in on the process. Check out her blog at LizzieParker.com/blog, where she not only dishes about the latest in her Issaquah shop, but also about her inspirations behind creating the Fall collection you'll be seeing on the FASHION FIRST runway.

Check out her first FASHION FIRST post, musing on the shapes, color, and materials she's loving right now and follow along as she works on the collection - and the FASHION FIRST event - in real time.
