I am so excited to announce the lineup of this year’s Mercury spring fashion show, Open Season! It will take place on Friday, May 6 at the Bossanova, and will feature new work from this very stellar roster of independent Portland (and beyond!) design talent: Reif, Isaac Hers, Bridge & Burn, Dawn Sharp, Heather Treadway, Ms. Wood, RUKI, Joshua Buck, Midge, Sara Bergman, Boet, AND, making a rare West Coast appearance, the triumphant returns of both Portland’s Project Runway champions, Leanne Marshall and Gretchen Jones!! This one’s gonna be a doozy, so mark your calendars for the biggest, baddest fashion showcase this side of springtime! Tickets are going on sale April 6, $15 advance and $18 at the door.
