In two hours I will be leaving for Portland for a long awaited trip home. When packing for the visit I found old dresses by Kate Towers that reminded me of why I love Oregon so much. Kate Towers has been one of my longtime favorite designers since visiting the store Seaplane that she co-founded in 2008. I loved how raw and present everything seemed inside the store, with sewing machines tucked away behind handmade appliquéd curtains and designers fitting one of a kind pieces on young clients. Even now, flipping through her lookbooks on KateTowers.com I am reminded of how her idealic, free spirited designs are reflected in my personal style now. The store has now moved and is filled with new Portland designers I can't wait to check out during this trip. You can find select Kate Towers pieces on www.etsy.com/shop/katetowers. Look out for some more designer shout outs this week..
