Spring is here!
One of the best produced events in the Twin Cities just went from being a must-attend social gala to a must-see fashion showcase. A collaboration between V2, Ignite Models, and City Pages, Envision Artopia Spring 2012 at the Graves matured this past Saturday with its 10th show, revealing its capability to be a true marker of Minneapolis fashion.

Past installments of the event, which takes place in autumn as well, were often hit or miss on the fashion portion but ran smoothly everywhere else. That wasn't the case this year, as nearly all of the featured designers had a statement to make on the runway.

Envision: Artopia 2012 is upon us, and despite the wimpy winter we've had, it's still relieving to be talking spring already.

Now in it's 10th season, the fashion-meets-arts showcase of local designers, boutiques and vendors will again be held at the Graves 601 Hotel downtown on April 14 and will center around spring fashions.

Consistently a local production masterpiece thanks to the partnering of both V2 Nightlife and Ignite Models, Envision is a must-attend event.  This year, we hope to see our crop of Twin Cities designers really bring their best and show us a mix of finished, fresh looks that work either commercially or artistically and relate to the spring season's upcoming trends.

Brrrr!
One of the most exciting things about Envision Artopia this year had nothing to do with fashion on the runways, but rather fashion on the patrons. It was easy to take a look at  stylish people in the crowd proudly displaying their own personal style and know we're part of a city growing more fashionable each year (Check our our Envision Artopia Photobooth here).
