A New Cross for Redeem - Fall Winter 2011

When we were asked to help host Redeem’s Fifth Year Anniversary party we didn’t hesitate to say yes. We were especially excited when we learned an exclusive collection from Colombian line “A New Cross” would be featured. There is so much to love about the unique designs of Nicolás Rivero and David Angel - the unisex styles, innovative & avant-garde silhouettes and handmade details of the collection are all exceptional (available only at Redeem). See our pictures of one of the best fashion presentations to ever be featured in DC (more pictures of the unforgettable evening coming soon):

We met blogger Cameron at the Alexa Chung for Madewell launch party in Washington DC. We really liked the suede leather jacket and military-style boots to go along with the witty/dark sense of humor.
