ARTwear 2012 - CELEBRATING ITS 10th ANNIVERSARY!!!









It is this time of the year when Calgary is celebrating fashion&art scene by having its annual event - ARTwear who celebrated its tenth anniversary with amazing line - up of 
local boutiques&fashion designers!! 
As always - celebration was held at beautiful Hotel Arts starting with the ACAD Wearable Art Showcase, and followed by the ARTwear 2012 Fashion Show featuring designers 
Paul Hardy and Lara Presber, as well as boutiques Coco & Violet, Henry Singer
Leo Boutique and Mealan. 


As always -  fashion show creates lots of gossip - there are always viewers who enjoy the show - and fashionistas who appreciate the true fashion&style. Last night, we could witness really great pieces featuring designs both from Paul Hardy & Lara Presber collections - but some of the styles presented by local boutiques-were as much interesting as well with my favourite 
clothes&accessories from Mealan.

After the Runway Show, all Guests could sip on Belvedere cocktails, bid on exciting Silent Auction prizes, and dance the night away to a live big band orchestra! 

The theme for the night was Vintage Hollywood - and I have to say - most of the Attendees followed the theme and dressed accordingly to the theme, which made the evening even more interesting to watch...and added a glamour flare to it... :)
