Emily Katz
"I don't want to wear Patagonia all the time."
Emily Katz, in only her second season of designing, created a fashionable raincoat that was fabulous enough that top boutiques in the Northwest and Fred Segal in Los Angeles picked it up.
All production happens in Portland, Oregon, where she lives, so Emily draws on the Northwest aesthetic of comfort and play, a touch of natural sexiness, and her art background to develop pieces that become “must-haves”. Her collection includes modern classics like comfy cowl necks, wrap dresses with an edge, and capelets that keep you warm. Practically each piece is something you can slide into and look effortlessly fabulous.
Emily relies on materials such as soy jersey, hemp/recycled poly denim, poly microfiber and organic cotton fleece to create items that are kind to the earth and represent our ever-changing place in the environment. She strives for simplicity and elegance, but most of all, sustainability. Emily feels this is a growing niche for fashion, one that will be in more high demand as consumers become conscious of how their choices affect our world.
Designer Facts:
If I could bring back any fashion trend it would be 1920's glamour. Those women that were powerful and inspirational and still so composed.
Closet Chatter
I have to agree with the others Homeschoolmama. Go with the company you trust and know that you're going to get a quality dress. And if it's beautiful the color doesn't matter as long as you like it.
HSM- I was not able to see the dress using the link you provided but I agree with Daphne. You should not risk purchasing from a company that you are unsure of for such an important event.
Homeschoolmama I would go with a company I trust. You wouldn't want to risk having something go terribly wrong, especially if the quality is in question.
Can I ask you all a question?
I'm less than a year from our 20th anniversary, and we'll be renewing our vows. I thought I'd order a pretty gown in chocolate brown. But I've been hearing stories about the company & their inability to get a dress shipped in a timely manner, as well as some nightmares about quality that have made me second-guess ordering through them.
Then this morning, I found this dress. (http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/romantic-storyline-dress)
I LOVE the lace & chiffon, LOVE the modest neckline, and LOVE the defined-but-not-cinched waistline. I love that it would "go" with absolutely everything else I have planned, and the shape would look great on me. I even love that it's through Modcloth since I know & love their clothing already, AND it's $40 cheaper than the brown dress.
BUT... it's ivory. And I wasn't gonna "go there" with ivory because I DON'T want it to look like a bridal gown! So my question is... if it were you, would you wear an ivory dress, or keep shopping for a brown dress through a company you could trust?!?
