1) What is the “back-story” of your line? How did Pink B Couture come about?

Well I started designing clothing for myself back in high school, my friends would see the clothing or notebook I designed and started asking me to cover their notebooks to match the glitter faux fur that I had on mine or design clothing for them such as prom dresses, tops etc back then I was just playing around or so I thought but going into 2008 I just got a little whim, took off from there and haven’t stopped since.

I totally agree that both fashion and life is art, other forms of art that I like to express myself through is home designing such as painting old furniture or crafting old, worn in furniture that I find on the street. I sorta tilt my head to the side when I see an old table or something and I am like hmmmm I know what I can do to this then Walllaaaa! When friends or family ask “Hey where did you get that from” then I go into my lil story they sorta look at me like WHAT?! in some form of shock… thats art.

A Pink B Couture chick is artsy, creative with a stylish and fun retro vibe, many of my of my consumers are late teen to mid thirtys women generally speaking. I believe a woman that likes to have a piece of clothing that is all her own or truly original or comes in limited quanites so you wont see everyone in town wearing the same thing when you hit the town. I think a woman that likes a subtle wow factor in her attire and likes very wearable couture is truly what a Pink B Couture woman is all about.

below>***Model: Erin, MUA: Tasheba, Hair Stylist: Nicole, Photographer: J.Aristotle<

Pink B Couture has been featured as a semifinalist for Project Runway season 6, Austin Fashion Week Awards Rising Star Top 4 nominee, Sola Boutique Trunk Show, News 8 Austin, Austin Statesman. America’s Next Top Model season 12 contest London (Lauren) Levi has modeled Pink B Couture although I would love to have more celebrities in Pink B Couture which is something I look forward to seeing in ther near future, to really get my line out there for many women around the world to own a Pink B design would be nice!

I get asked all the time “Where can I find more of your designs?”, so people can definately look forward to seeing more Pink B Couture in a number of boutiques across the U.S. Other projects I am working on are setting up charitable work with charities one catered to children and the other in support of U.S troops such as USO, I’m a military spouse so that is a given that I will do what I can for support and I have been given so much in life that I want to give a little in return…

Each student has been paired with a media personality, including Q100’s Jenn Hobby; Fox 5‘s Justin Gray; Jessica Shops’ Jessica Dauler; The Atlanta Journal Constitution’s Jamie Gumbrecht; WSB-TV’s Linda Stouffer; and CBS Atlanta’s Jennifer Valdez.

The students are conducting individual style consultations to create inspired versions of the quintessential spring ensemble for their media celebrity partners and pooches. The final reveal of the collaborative designs will take place Friday, April 30 at 7:30 p.m. during an exclusive show at Lenox Square: Simon Fashion Bow Wow. Critiquing the design competition will be a panel of well-known fashion judges including Project Runway’s Anthony Williams; Life & Food Editor for the Sunday Paper, Kirsten Palladino; Dave FM’s Mara Davis; and Peach Buzz columnist and blogger Jennifer Brett.

What: Simon Fashion Bow Wow, a highlight of the Simon Fashion Now weekend April 30 – May 1, will also feature a Silent Auction benefitting Atlanta Pet Rescue on Friday from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. Shoppers can bid on items before and during the Simon Fashion Bow Wow fashion show.

When: Simon Fashion Now™ on Friday, April 30 & Saturday, May 1 is free/open to the public.

Friday’s fashion shows: 7 p.m., 7:30 p.m. (Simon Fashion Bow Wow) & 8 p.m.
Saturday’s fashion shows: 12 p.m., 2 p.m., 3 p.m., 4 p.m., 5 p.m. & 6 p.m.

Simon Fashion Now events kick-off on Friday evening with Trends & Friends Night, an evening of fashion, cocktails and bites. Simon Fashion Bow Wow and the silent auction benefitting Atlanta Pet Rescue are just two highlights of this fantastic evening of fun.

Where: Lenox Square, 3393 Peachtree Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30326

Why: Strutting their stuff on the canine catwalk will be pooches from Atlanta Pet Rescue. Atlanta Pet Rescue is a non-profit, no-kill animal shelter dedicated to rescuing unwanted pets and providing compassionate care for homeless dogs and cats. The haute hounds in need of homes are hoping to be adopted by Simon Fashion Bow Wow attendees.

“Simon Fashion Now allows Atlanta shoppers to preview fresh spring fashions from Lenox Square retailers,” said Shari Simon, senior vice president of corporate marketing. “Guests of Simon Fashion Now will see looks at all price points, so every shopper can find styles that work for them.”

Simon is also upping the ante with its 2010 tour, bringing on style expert Bobbie Thomas to offer Simon Fashion Now attendees inspiration and advice. Bobbie will be at Lenox Square on Saturday, May 1 to meet with fans and give her top tips for spring fashions. Bobbie’s national column “The Buzz,” featured in In Touch magazine, highlights Hollywood’s hottest fashion and beauty must-haves.

“I love that Simon Fashion Now makes it easy for shoppers to check out gorgeous looks on the runway and instantly recreate them with their own flair by visiting retailers within the mall,” said Simon Fashion Now style expert Bobbie Thomas. “I’m so excited to visit Atlanta to help shoppers select style choices that reflect their inner personality.”

Simon Fashion Now events begin at Lenox Square with Trends and Friends Night on Friday, April 30 from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. in the Neiman Marcus Wing. A series of fashion shows begin at 7:00pm in front of Macy’s, including Simon Fashion Bow Wow at 7:30 p.m. Simon Fashion Bow Wow is a design competition where adoptable dogs from Atlanta Pet Rescue will take the stage with local celebrities, each modeling spring clothing designed by fashion design students from Bauder College. In addition, shoppers will be able to participate in a raffle benefitting Atlanta Pet Rescue.

Shoppers can expect to see an abundance of styles for men and women ranging from casual weekend wear and stylish outfits for the office, to show-stopping looks for a night on the town. The public will be able to view runway shows rivaling major fashion industry show productions. Yet unlike the industry shows that preview styles unavailable for several months, Simon Fashion Now makes the hottest men’s and women’s fashions of the season accessible; every look from the runway can be immediately found at retailers within the mall. The shows will introduce looks from BCBGMAXAZRIA, bebe, Ed Hardy, French Connection, Metropark, Miss Sixty/Energie, 7 For All Mankind, Steve Madden and True Religion Brand Jeans.

Simon Fashion Now continues Saturday, May 1 with shows at 12 p.m., 1 p.m., 2 p.m., 3 p.m., 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. and will feature Style Stops throughout the mall. In addition to the runway shows, fashion and beauty experts will offer advice and insight into this spring’s cosmetic trends, highlight the must-have accessories of the season, and offer tips on updating a wardrobe without breaking the bank. Participating retailers include Bloomingdale’s and Macy’s as well as Ann Taylor, Anthropologie, Arden B., babyGap/GapKids, Banana Republic, Brahmin, Brooks Brothers, Caché, Club Monaco, Destination Maternity, Façonnable, GAP, GUESS, Gymboree, The Limited, Mori Luggage, Nicole Miller, PH8 and Swim N’ Sport. Also on Saturday will be a fashion show featuring clothing and accessories from retailers at Phipps Plaza. Participating stores include Belk, Nordstrom, Anne Fontaine, Barneys New York CO-OP, Cole Haan, Elie Tahari, Tommy Bahama, Tory Burch and United Colors of Benetton. Runway make-up will be provided by Sephora and model hair styled by Sassoon Salon. In addition, model participants will include Season 6 “Project Runway Models of the Runway” winner Kalyn Hemphill.

“We’re bringing the drama and excitement of runways shows to shoppers wanting great looks for the spring season that they can purchase later that day,” said Jacqué Ellis, assistant vice president of corporate special events at Simon. “Shoppers are always excited about the energy of the runway shows and the accessibility of the looks, so we can’t wait to bring Simon Fashion Now to Atlanta.”

Simon Fashion Now is also on Facebook – fashionistas looking for the latest style news, contests, photos and event information for each stop can visit www.facebook.com/SimonFashionNow and simply select ‘Become a Fan.’
