A few weeks ago I talked Lucas, Evan & Kelsey into coming to a Portland Fashion Week event with me. This is the night that all the designers showing collections in the fall runway show were announced so we had to go! Plus, I really wanted to meet the director.
Meet Jessica, the director and co-owner of Portland Fashion Week. She is incredible. About ten years ago Portland Fashion Week fell apart and dwindled for years. Jessica revived this extraordinary semi-annual event and it has been rapidly growing for 4 years now. Her entire staff, everyone from marketing and social media to community outreach and event ushers, are volunteers. See? Incredible.
After meeting her I emailed her and asked if she could use any PR help. She said yes and put me in contact with the PFW marketing manager who I am now assisting. I’m so excited to help out with this event!
This girl had the most beautiful braid so I had to sneak a picture of it! Someday I’ll figure out how to make my hair do that.
