Tonight: Adam Arnold
Adam Arnold Spring 06 photo Christy Klep
We will readily agree with those who put Adam Arnold in somewhat of a class by himself among Portland fashion designers. He does very sophisticated modern looks for women and men (a rarity among Portland designers) and does it all, sketch-to-stitch, as a one man band with no […]
Hail to the Queen
Why is Aussie Lipstick Queen Poppy King visiting Portland? Because Mario’s (833 SW Broadway) and Mario’s 3.10 are the only shops outside of LA and NYC (besides Barney’s) where you can find her Lipstick Queen counters.
