Seamless in Seattle Recap
The winners of the 2012 Seamless in Seattle competition wowed on the runway.
By Inside Seattle September 11, 2012
Seattle magazine’s 2nd annual Seamless in Seattle fashion show was proof that Seattle has style! The five Seamless in Seattle award-winning designers presented their chic, sophisticated and totally wearable collections to 350 guests, picturesquely set underneath the glowing cars at the Seattle Art Museum. Plus, each designer created a unique look for the Peroni Nastro Azzurro design challenge—a live celebrity panel including Joan Kelly, Michael Cepress, Rachel Roberts and Kim Lundin were given the task of selecting the designer who best used Peroni’s signature blue ribbon in their design. The competition was fierce as the judges even requested a final walk off of the challenge looks!
At the end of the night, emerging designer Suzy Fairchild took home the award for the Peroni Nastro Azzurro challenge and student designer Erin Roby was selected to present her looks at Neiman Marcus’ Fashion’s Night Out on September 6.
Congratulations again to all five of our Seamless in Seattle award-winning designers:
Christine Chaney – Best Emerging Designer
Erin Roby – Best Student Designer
Sonia McBride – Most Innovative Line
Alicia Czerwiec – Most Artistic Line
Suzy Fairchild – Best Everyday Frocks
And a special thanks to all of our partners who made this show possible:TCM Models, PNTA, Seattle Art Museum, Taste Events, Gene Juarez, In the Groove Events, Team Photogenic and JP Beck Photography.
