Yesterday I presented Eleanor's Riot AW wear to Glasgow, at regular pop up event Bold Souls. It was a hectic couple of weeks getting everything prepared, pressed and preened but I am so glad that I took a giant leap of faith and did it, I massively stepped outside of my comfort zone & now feel unstoppable! The event itself is run by glamorous Glasgow based designer Silvia Pellegrino of Chouchou. As an independent designer herself she understands the pressures that emerging businesses face and uses the event to really encourage and promote Scottish talent.
The room was full of all different angles of the fashion industry. Elaborate hair, make up and polka dot nails were on offer, models sashayed between stalls, several jewelers and vintage clothing were on offer too. I was overwhelmed by the support that was dished out for Eleanor's Riot, it was great to meet so many people in the same position or ten steps ahead of me & everyone just so encouraging.
I have to give absolute praise to my beau, David Anderson, for the consistent support over the run up to the event. For taking such beautiful images for me to share with you all and for carrying all of my stuff through on the train across from Edinburgh to Glasgow. I no way would ever, or could ever have done it without him.
I am a fashion sherpa!
