Dear Neighbors, Below is information about a crowd funding dinner I'm having in support of my first fashion show as part of Pittsburgh Fashion Week. It's a chance to have a great dinner (and it's BYOB!), enjoy good company, support a new local fashion designers and get a glimpse into creative process and planning of a fashion show. I've included a picture of some of my work at the bottom of this email. I hope to see you there! Brad Hello, I will be having my first fashion show to launch my own line of clothing under the Bradford Mumpower label on September 26th, at Highmark Stadium as part of this years Pittsburgh Fashion Week. It has been a very exciting process as I move towards having my first fashion show, and I am cherishing every minute of it! As the date for my show is quickly approaching, I realize that I could really use a little help in getting everything together for the show, some fabrics, linings, notions (zippers, buttons, snaps, studs) and all the small (and not so small) details that make the show a success. I considered doing a Kickstarter, but I decided to just do a simple crowd funding dinner instead. Sausalito is one of my favorite places to eat in Pittsburgh, and they are opening up the restaurant just for my party. So here are the details: Dinner at Sausalito Sept 8th, 7:00pm Appetizers: Rustic Bread and Bean Dip Seared Gouda with a Pesto Drizzle Salad: Mixed Green Salad Entree: (Choice of one) Salmon with a warm red quinoa salad and cucumber creme fraishe Chicken with arugula, Roasted corn and fresh Mozzarella Bow-tie pasta with feta, spinach and roasted pine nuts Desert: Candied Watermelon Sausalito is BYOB and corkage is included Price for Dinner is $50.00 per person Following Dinner I will be heading down to my studio in Lawrenceville to let anyone who'd like to see my studio, take a look at the collection in progress. I hope you will consider attending, it will be a fun night of great food and company and a peek into my creative process.
