BRAINCHILD EVENTS ANNOUNCES THE EMERGING 6 IN
PINS AND NEEDLES FASHION DESIGN COMPETITION
SAINT LOUIS --- Brainchild Events announces the top six designers for 2015 Pins and Needles Fashion Design Competition.
On August 1 at the Boo Cat Club (812 Union Blvd, St. Louis 63108), competing designers will showcase their collections to fashion-goers and will be judged by a panel of fashion experts. The grand prize package is valued at over $15,000 and a placement within St. Louis Fashion Week 2015. Guests will vote for the T-Mobile Peoples Choice Award via Twitter the night of Pins and Needles.
The six designers showcasing their looks in this year’s competition are St. Louis designer Alexis Cook, Rene Frances, a New Hampshire native, as well as Saint Louis' own Isaiah Jenkins, Ryan Moore, Brittany Rader and Barbara Bultman.
“Pins and Needles supports the creativity, innovation and artistry of new designers by giving them the exposure, experience and tools they need to take their collections from runway to retail,” says Carter. “Our mission is to elevate the success of our emerging designers—whether just completing their degree, recently graduated or working on their first collection.”
