Hello Raj,

Here is a brief on the store and the designer Shelley Klassen. So glad you could make the party last night. Hope you had fun!!

Part of the collection that you saw last night on the runway was a sneak preview of Fall/Winter 2007.

Appealing to the girl in every woman, designer Shelley Klassen has an innate desire to share her passion and uniquely feminine style by providing women with beautiful clothing. Inspired by luscious fabrics and designed with comfort in mind, Blushing’s garments are beautifully crafted, classic pieces. With sensual cuts and exceptional detailing, Blushing boasts a beautiful fit that suits a variety of body types. Designed for the woman who leads a multi-faceted lifestyle, Blushing offers a wide range of styles from fun and flirty to confident sophistication. Easy to wear and accessorize, Blushing’s garments are sensual, comfortable and well made, an irresistible combination for any woman.

Blushing Designs by Shelley Klassen celebrates Spring/Summer 2007 with a stunning array of organic colours. Klassen dives into the summer season with mixtures of blues and whites using swirls of fresh stripes to create nautical motifs. Delicate blends of sea breeze and taupe thread through Shelley’s feminine storyline mixing in fruity shades of Tropical and Asian inspired botanicals to keep it cool. Klassen accentuates the collection with beading and crochet lace trims, giving Blushing its expected flare. Black, white and red appear in imaginative combinations to create a chic simplicity using linens, cottons and silks. Always taking pleasure in giving women what they want, Klassen uses a variety of techniques to make sure her pieces fit an assortment of body types with pleated busts and satin lace backs. The Blushing Spring/Summer 2007 collection is perfect for the woman who never needs an excuse to look glamorous.

Spring 2007 Shelley Klassen embarks on a new adventure opening her flagship Blushing boutique in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The store will be located in the downtown core of Vancouver at 579 Richards Street. The new Blushing boutique will also house the atelier and design studio. This is a tremendous opportunity for Shelley to interact directly with the public and to build the Blushing brand with the faithful women who supported Shelley for the first 8 years. Shelley is particularly excited about the opportunity to offer haute couture design for private clients which she feels will give her more inspiration.

Blushing will continue to wholesale across Canada and to develop the U.S. market, and will work closely with wholesale clients to provide them with Blushing’s unique, feminine clothing. Come and let your girly girl out at 579 Richards Street, downtown Vancouver, April 1 2007.

Let me know if you require any further information.

Kindest regards,

Sharon.
