Style

Dear Reader,

I hope this letter finds you inspired and full of creative energy.

Today, I want to take a moment to celebrate and explore the fascinating world of style. Style is not limited to the clothes we wear or the accessories in which we adorn ourselves; it encompasses every aspect of our lives. From the way we decorate our homes to the music we listen to, from the books we read to the way we carry ourselves in conversation, style permeates every facet of our existence. It is one of the threads that is woven together to make the tapestry that is "us."

Style is deeply personal. And it evolves as we celebrate our quirks, our passions, and our desires. Style is a form of self-expression that communicates who we are, how we perceive the world and what we value. In this way, style becomes a powerful tool for connection, as it enables us to find common ground with others who share our aesthetic sensibilities.

As individuals, we have the freedom to embrace established styles, blend them together, or forge entirely new paths, becoming trendsetters ourselves. We hope this issue inspires you to take your own style path. There is so much here in Bellevue to uplift our spirits, drive our inspiration and ignite the creativity within each of us.

What I’ve found is that the best style is an authentic expression of who you are at heart. And that’s something no one on earth can duplicate.

ON THE FOREFRONT

ARTICLE BY BREE O’BRIEN

Michelle Tsau, Eastside resident and Founder of Avant Gardist, is an intrepid leisure traveler. Born and raised in Hong Kong until the age of 14, when she moved to the US, her forays into Japan, Romania, Taiwan, and more have led her to encounter many unique independent designers across the globe. Her “curious quest to discover undiscovered treasure,” motivated her to start the company in 2019 as a fashion e-commerce platform - a hub for sourcing distinctive, unconventional fashions not found at the usual shopping meccas.

When abroad, Tsau scours fashion districts for independent designers, and engages when she finds them to determine if they’re on the same page with regard to values and vision. Her ethos around sustainable and ethical design and production is an important factor in choosing partners. She looks for opportunities to highlight little-known designers, like serving on the panel for the 2022 Futures Initiative from the Smithsonian Museum to celebrate its 175th anniversary. Avant Gardist invited three of its designers; Vincent Li, Phenotypsetter and Yasuyuki Ishii; to showcase their futuristic designs at the event.

For Tsau, the best part of the job is finding new talents and being the first to shine a spotlight on independent designers.

“Avant Gardist is about bringing the sense of discovery back into fashion, and democratizing fashion,” she says. An Avant Gardist pop-up shop is planned for Seattle in mid-September. You can find more information on avantgardist.com where you can sign up for the newsletter, and follow along on Instagram @avantgardistinc as well.

THE ART OF FABRIC DESIGN

Recently I had the opportunity to tour Tommy Bahama’s design studios in Seattle with Bradley O’Brien - the EVP of Product Design and Development - to learn about how art becomes part of the brand’s iconic fabric designs. The light and airy design workspace feels lush - as well-tended houseplants punctuate every unused surface. “Nobody has an art department like this,” says O’Brien. Artists are tinkering with designs at various tables using paint, ink, or computer, and one can see the tropical designs come alive.

Each season sees the brand’s design and development team select a destination to embody that season’s product line. Ibiza, Capri, Uruguay, and the South of France are all past selections, and it’s easy to see the influence of these locales on past releases that adorn the walls. In-house fine and graphic artists draw inspiration from textiles collected abroad, flora, fauna, global art, and the jam-packed Tommy Bahama archives: garments, and fabric samples from seasons past.

Often the brand will work directly with outside artists, like Alexandra Penney, Beppe Spadacini (the “king of the tropicals,” O’Brien tells me), and Justin W. Cox who created the stylized marlin adorning several of this year’s pieces. Cox has worked with fashion brands before - his parents owned a retail store and he grew up in that world. He developed his artistic talent by trying different methods, “messing around with paint, looking for an outlet,” he says. He took to acrylic paint because he

can create pieces quickly, and the colors smear together in a desirable way.

After honing his skills, Cox posted some of his work on social media and people responded positively. He’d previously worked with Tommy Bahama’s SVP of Men’s Design, Dawn Brandl in the ‘90’s, and the two reconnected virtually which led to the brand partnership. “Tommy Bahama’s quality and attention to detail are incredible,” Cox says. “They took my work and helped it come to life.”

Fashion Week: PNW Style

PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY OF THE BELLEVUE COLLECTION

Fashion Week at The Bellevue Collection, the Pacific Northwest’s much awaited style event, takes over the stage September 8-9. For the 17th year, The Collection’s iconic high-energy runway shows return to highlight the best in fall fashion, inspiring guests to discover their own individual styles. Fashion Week kicks off the season with trend reports, a style workshop, interactive experiences and of course irresistible shopping.

“For some people, trends can be intimidating,” says Jennifer Leavitt, Vice President of Marketing for The Bellevue Collection, “but fashion should be about self-expression.” On September 8, the Trend Takeover Runway Show features a mix of retailers highlighting each trend, so guests can see them worn in different ways. Hot trends this year include:

• Red - this will be from day to night and can be head to toe or just a pop.

• Power suits - strong menswear influence and shoulder pads are back in a BIG way.

• Preppy - classic layering that has a casual feel of sophistication.

• Visible lingerie - a peek of sheer fabric done so as not to feel overexposed.

• Full skirts - the mid-calf skirt sits at the waist and blooms out.

• Soft fabrics - floaty or clingy fabrics with movement and feminine trims like ruffles or lace.

The Collective Runway Show on September 9 is about the latest fashions from premier brands, presented with a Pacific Northwest twist. Inspired by runway shows around the world, with the benefit of being able to “shop the show” and purchase anything that caught your eye, right away. “At both shows you will see a gamut of people who just enjoy fashion,” says Leavitt. “We see groups of women who come every year, men too. There’s great food and fun drinks, and we always try to bring a little something new and different.”

Over 17 years, The Bellevue Collection has contributed more than $1.2M to community partners benefiting education, arts and social and health services by donating 100 percent of every Fashion Week ticket sale. And this year is no exception, as tickets from The Trend Takeover Runway Show will benefit KidsQuest and The Collective Runway Show will benefit Treehouse.

CREATING YOUR PERSONAL STYLE

Blair Moore has loved all things fashion from a young age. The Nashville native studied Fashion Merchandising and Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in the fashion capital of the world, New York City. It was inevitable the mother of three would find herself in a career where she would help other women find their confidence through their wardrobe. Blair says, “I love helping women find their true personal style and get them organized in their closet so they feel truly empowered to get dressed each day with ease and confidence!” Blair shares four trends for spring and how to incorporate them into your wardrobe.

BRIGHT AND BOLD COLORS

This season, bright colors such as hot pink and kelly green are trending. I know this can be difficult for my neutral-loving ladies, so I always recommend starting small. Choose a fun, colorful earring or add a bold clutch to brighten up your look. You can also have fun with your shoes by adding a colorful heel or sandal to a dress or denim outfit.

FLORALS

From floral midi dresses to feminine floral blouses, this season is all about flower power. Choose a flowy floral skirt and pair it with your favorite knotted tee and sandals for an effortless look. Tip: If wearing a dress with a large floral print, try adding a denim jacket, light cardigan or woven belt to add texture and break up the print.

TWO-PIECE SETS

From casual jogger sets to feminine tiered skirts and puff-sleeved tops, two-piece sets are everywhere! What I adore about twopiece sets is that you can wear them in multiple ways. Wear it as a set or take the top and pair it with denim, or take the skirt and pair it with a tee and light jacket or blazer. Two pieces, but multiple ways to wear them!

90S-INSPIRED DENIM

Let me be clear — I LOVE a skinny jean and always will! But the 90s denim trend is having a moment and if you want to embrace it, here are a couple of tips: Choose a fit that is high-rise with a more relaxed fit through the leg. You want the jean to fall right above the ankle bone. This is slimming and flattering to the eye. Pair with a strappy heel, sneaker or slide.

Declutter Your Closet

edit

Edit down your closet. Ask yourself these three things: Do you still like it? Does it fit within reason? Is it still in good condition? If the answer is no, it’s time to donate or sell that item. Keep a donation basket in your closet to help you stay on track.

new and old

Buy something new, get rid of something old. Each time you buy a new item, get rid of an item in your closet. This manages the chaos of having too many options in your closet. We only wear about 20% of the items in our closet, so make a list before shopping and shop with intention.

organize

When it comes to organization, having a system in place is key. Utilize the entire space for your items. For example, buy closed bins for out of season or travel items and place them on the top shelf. Utilize the back of the door or any blank walls with hooks for hats or a jewelry organizer. Get rid of items that are taking up space in your closet like shoe boxes, sentimental items, and bulky items like luggage. Store them elsewhere if you can. The two best things you can do to save on space and have an organized closet is to invest in all matching slim velvet hangers. This frees up more space in your closet and looks great, too. And finally, add matching labeled baskets for folded items to keep everything nicely organized and in specific categories.
