Philadelphia Fashion Week is right around the corner, and you know what that means; an abundance of Philly's fashion trendsetters flooding the famed Crane Arts Building to see what Philly's fashion division has to offer. With 10 designers debuting on September 20th, both national and international designers will come to the main stage to debut their Fall/Winter 2013 collections. And this year's lineup incorporates Philly's very own, McKinzie Chic, a trendy women's ready-to-wear line consisting of blazers, dresses and jumpsuits.
The brand is owned by South Philly native Sheri McKinzie and was launched during summer 2012. Since the launch of McKinzie Chic, Sheri's unique pieces have been met with nothing but celebrity validations. Her pieces have been spotted on celebrities such as Basketball Wives' Draya Michele, Fantasia Barrino, and Bad Girls Club's Milyn Jensen. The hard-to-find textiles add to the exclusivity of McKinzie Chic, as each customer will always be seen entering the nightclub or attending a dinner date wearing a never-before-seen look.
She reinvented what it means to wear a jumpsuit, fashioning sexy cleavage along necklines and accentuating jumpsuits with impeccable lining, making it the archetype way to accent a silhouette.
McKinzie Chic reinvented "sexy", making it more chiseled, with her eclectic idea to use rose-patterned sleeves rather than baring skin in her Spring 2013 collection. But as she dives into fall, she is promenading once more into "rose-land", but this time channeling Italian hedge maze gardens met with sleek city sophistication mixed with a little art dealer chic.
On September 20th, models will grace the runway at the Cranes Arts Building in her new "Floral Chic Fall/Winter 2013" collection. Sheri has optimism of gaining the attention of prospective buyers, jetsetters and stylists. Sheri is fine-tuning the brand once more, but this time from an upmarket angle.
It is safe to say that the new KcKinzie Chic collection is a highly awaited one that you'll want to the first to see. Stay tuned on whats's next for the McKinzie Chic brand by checking out www.mckinziechic.com or following the official twitter page @mckinziechic
