DEL.ICIO.USWho is Atlanta’s hottest emerging designer?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Atlanta is becoming the place for up and coming designers.
Local boutique P. Valentine (in partnership with Icon Style) just announced a new competition for designers.
The annual “City’s Most Loved Designer Competition” is accepting submissions for the competition that culminates in a late February fashion show of 8 designer finalists (4 accessories designers will have window displays).
The winner receives a signature window display at P. Valentine and possibly the opportunity to sell through the store.
The requirements? Each designer must have his or her own collection and have shipped and sold at least one collection to at least one boutique or store. A collection must included at least 6 to 8 pieces. A public poll will run online for 29 days to give Atlantans the chance to choose a favorite designer, and then judges will select a winner from the top eight at the show.
Who are the up and coming clothing and accessories designers in Atlanta that you like? Where do you buy his/her clothing/accessories?

Clint Zeagler of Pecan Pie Couture http://www.pecanpiecouture.com has been named the Best Designer in Atlanta for the last 2 years in Creative Loafing. His clothing is made of organic cotton, grown in the South and with phrases like “Shut up and Twirl” or “Bless Your Little Heart” there’s something for everyone. His clothes can be found at Sandpiper and Veruca and soon to be…Bloomingdales!

Chilly-O is a little bit more than a designer, more like an architect or a lifestyle!

I think Chilly-O is more than a designer more like a mystery or something most don’t understand! Architects maybe! I love Chilly-O!
