WILLIAMSBURG FASHION WEEKEND IS BACK! AT SECRET PROJECT ROBOT FRI&SAT SEPT18&19th!

Williamsburg Fashion Weekend, the original innovator of unorthodox fashion shows in Brooklyn, opens its sixth season on September 18^th and 19^th, at Secret Project Robot. The group of designers we assembled this year, with their finger on the pulse of our fashionable neighbourhood, will display the diverse elements that make up what Williamsburg fashion aesthetic is about, right now!

Two designers from two of our favorite Williamsburg boutiques, (Erin Weckerle for Sodafine), (Sirius* for Treehouse, Brooklyn) have teamed up to show off their latest hand-made, one of a kind creations. Their past shows have always blown us away, we can't wait to see what they will surprise us with this season!

headdress party fun

Last thursday, treehouse hosted headdress party #3. It was beyond a blast, and we hope to be hosting more soon. We'd tell you more, but the first rule of HEADDRESS CLUB is you don't talk about HEADDRESS CLUB... ;).
