KaiT by Kaitlyn Thomas

KaiT is just back from the Fabric & Trim Show in Chicago…and let me just say that there are going to be some fabulous offerings for the Fall ’11 collection. Fabrics range from a luscious cotton/wool crepe knit, to a crisp sueded stretch poplin. This designer is extremely excited to get started with first samples using these yummy textiles…stay tuned for the new designs!!

If you haven’t heard about it (multiple times) by now, its time that I said again how much I loved working on this wedding gown for a friend and local VIP.  They were married in August in a beautiful ceremony that was truly a pleasure to be part of.  And the good feelings from this project just keep coming.  KaiT had a shoot a couple of weeks ago that the bride was generous enough to model for, from which we got some gorgeous photos.  They will be featured in some of KaiT’s Fall and Holiday advertising spots this year, and we’ve just learned that it will be featured in an editorial slot in Style Magazine’s Holiday issue as well.  Awesome news about one of the best custom bridal designs KaiT has ever been part of!

As I was (finally) preparing the images for next season’s lookbook, I have to admit that I was distracted and a bit captivated with some of the shots. We’ve had the good fortune to work with some truly lovely and talented models, and the resulting pictures are some of KaiT’s all-time favorites. Check out www.kaitdesign.com for the full look book, and then get in touch to order your favorite outfit!!

KaiT’s Fall 2010 Collection, “Wit & Whimsy”, is arriving in stores this week.  Check www.kaitdesign.com for a list of boutiques carrying the line, or contact KaiT for custom orders.  At the very least, go flip through the Look Book for the collection on the website, because this one is worth seeing!!

KaiT’s preview of the Spring 2011 collection was very well received at last weekend’s Fashion Fest 2010 event.

KaiT will be participating in the upcoming Fashion Fest 2010 “Only in Olde Town”, which will be held in Olde Town Arvada. The event will showcase four local designers and hold a contest for those aspiring to become part of the local fashion scene. KaiT will be previewing the Spring 2011 collection during the runway show, and will be holding a trunk show and sample sale during the event. If you want to see what’s new and perhaps score a one-of-a-kind garment or two, be sure to make an appearance!!

Visit www.fashionfest2010.com for more information on the event.

Its bridal season again in Fort Collins, and this is shaping up to be KaiT’s busiest yet. The trend this year has been brides with very non-traditional requests for their gowns, such as the custom design in progress you see here. Other trends are bright colors, such as aquamarine and fuscia, and lots of florals in prints or embellishment.

KaiT’s Spring 2010 Collection, “Back to Basics”, can be found in select stores in Colorado and California this spring and summer.  Check www.kaitdesign.com for a detailed list of stores.  If there’s not a store in your area and you are interested in the Spring 2010 Collection, contact the designer for prices and availability of select pieces.  Don’t wait long though…the word is that KaiT is already selling quickly in all locations…
