Some of the good stuff began this past weekend, including "Exclusively Spring," a fashion show by Kjurek Couture the W. Designer Kimberly Jurek's Spring 2009 collection is filled with free-flowing dresses with inspiration dating back to hippie attitudes and romantic prairies.
On Saturday, Rumours in St. Paul hosted the Spring Fashion Show and Dance Party. Drag Queen Camille Collins was the evening's MC and fashionable twins Coco and Breezy debuted their new line, "Guemela Amor" ("twin love").
