Portland Fashion Week Oct. 7-11

There is one vision for the Portland Fashion Week, to emphasize eco-responsible fashion, stage independent designers, and draw national attention to Portland’s unique intersection of Art, Commerce, and Sustainability.

PFA uses LED lighting, all-natural beauty products, organic food and wine, and a bamboo runway—a fitting catwalk for models donning green apparel from the Spring/Summer 2010 collections of A Fortes Design, Mountains of the Moon, Jonano, and Ethos Paris.

As a longtime hotbed of creativity for modern art, design, and urban development, Portland is being unveiled as fashion’s best-kept secret. On the runway since 2003, Portland Fashion Week is the second-longest running fashion week on the West Coast. PFW stages the freshest designers’ collections of the upcoming season through a week-long series of high-production runway shows at the hippest venues in downtown Portland, and exposes independent designers to style-savvy consumers, as well as buyers, and regional & national press.
