Well, I most certainly am, and have been since I saw an amazing video of this designer crashing the past season's Fashion Week. Shavonne fearlessly paraded models in her latest collection up and down the front area of the Lincoln Center with a huge sign, asking anyone who would listen, "Are you a FAN of SHAVONNE DEANN?!" ...and low and behold, who's attention did she grab? Non other than the famed June Ambrose who was so impressed with Shavonne's work that she stopped to chat it up with the designer and drop some words of wisdom...and as if this situation couldn't get any better, three of her looks were photographed and featured in New York Magazine as a part of the 25 most stylish folks at Fashion Week. Whewww! This Moore Alumni and Philly girl is making moves!
This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending Shavonne's first store launch at pop up shop, Boutique 77 on Broad Street. For a limited time the store will feature a few pieces from her Fall collection. ....comfortable tops made of warm fabrics coupled with a sexy twist and cool classic cardigans which are perfect to throw over a little dress w/ leg-warmers and boots (my fav. look of the moment) ...and if you aren't from the Philadelphia area just go HERE to browse and buy these styles and more. For additional info and to 'become a fan" go HERE.
...Look out, because before you know it, Shavonne wont have to crash fashion week...She'll most certainly be showing. ;) xoxo-SBG
