The Gen Art Fresh Faces Fashion Show has laid the groundwork for many up and coming young designers. With fashion stars such as Zac Posen, Rebecca Taylor and Chaiken getting their start at Gen Art, the 13 year event is gearing up to kick start the careers of new and exciting talents who will set the standard for future trends.
This national fashion show will kick off in San Francisco on August 22 at the Regency Center, with dates to follow during each official fashion week in New York (September 5th), Chicago (October 9th) and L.A. (October 12th). Combined, this is the largest grouping of emerging designer shows in the United States. Showcasing six cutting-edge fashion designers, the Fresh Faces fashion show will reflect the current state of the fashion world.
Immediately following the San Francisco show, an after party will be held in the Sutter Room at the Regency Center. Guests will have the opportunity to enjoy cocktails and live entertainment while viewing the installations of three accessories designers.
The fashion designers featured this year will include Amy Sarabi (www.amysarabi.com), distilled (www.distilledclothing.com), Janezic (www.janeziccollection.com) PODOLL (www.podollcollection.com) and Sara Shepherd (www.sarashepherd.com).
Accessory designers will include amytorello (www.amytorello.com), bryna nicole (www.brynanicole.com) and NolaBella Jewelry (www.nolabella.com).
The Gen Art Fresh Faces Fashion Show in San Francisco will be sponsored by BOTOX(r) (www.botoxseveresweating.com), which is FDA-approved for the treatment of excessive underarm sweating when topical such as antiperspirants do not work. Dermatologist Dee Anna Glaser, M.D. of St. Louis University notes, "While most people know about BOTOX(r) Cosmetic, BOTOX(r) is a highly effective way to control severe underarm sweating, which can ruin clothing. We are urging anyone who feels that their severe underarm sweating is having an impact on their daily activities to speak to a dermatologist about potential treatment options."
