Which brings my attention to Fashcapade! I know these gals and guy myself! We all went to Hampton University together, however Ashley, (the Founder and CEO) has always been so driven that it's crazy! I've always secretly admired this about her (shhh, don't tell!) because she had the courage to REALLY step out on faith! Upon leaving Hampton University she went to New York to follow her fashion heart! I know this was a scary decision- but it is so well worth it! I asked her what made her do this, her answer was:
"I always wanted to be able to say I created something that helped others in the fashion industry. My goal for Fashcapade is to help emerging fashion and beauty professionals reach their fullest potential."*cue Beyonce's "I Was Here"* :)
Ok! SO what exactly is Fashcapade you ask?! I asked Ashely too! She breaks it down, "It is the combination of Fashion and Escapade- by definition it is an adventure in fashion." In layman's terms, its a PR firm to help fashion and beauty folk get their name off the ground and get them known to the world! They are currently branding themselves by hosting events such as their "Pop Up Shop" (appropriately titled, the FashcaSHOP), which gives designers a chance to showcase and sell their work to the public! The next FashcaSHOP will be in NY on December 15, 2011 from 6:00-9:00pm at Wix Lounge!
Meet the Fashcapade Team!
