Erin Fetherston is a young American fashion designer known for her feminine, positive and inventive designs. This California native headed to Paris to pursue a career in Fashion at Parson’s School of Design and started her line in 2004. Recently moving to New York City, her social network has certainly strengthened her presence in the industry. Presently, the muse-model for her high-end line is Zooey Deschanel, her BFF. Deschanel, Ellen von Unwerth (her Paris advisor), and Kirsten Dunst are all supporters of the developing designer. Superstars Anne Hathaway, Winona Ryder and Cameron Diaz are all also clients of Fetherston’s brand.
The year 2007 proved that Erin is here to stay–she received the Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation award for emerging designers and was also titled a finalist in the CFDA/Vogue (magazine) Fashion Fund Award. Also in November 2007, a limited-time discounted capsule collection debuted at fashion-giant, Target.
Here is a peek at Fetherston’s Spring 2011 RTW collection, which explores the story of the vivacious and independent woman roaming the earth far and wide. Chock full of the iconic Fetherston bows and safari jackets, FASHIONOTES loved the various shades of green and orange, a bit of a pleasant change from the loud, bold colours we’ve seen so far. We adored the hues but the pieces were quite similar: one shoulder dresses and peplum jackets. Hopefully for her next collection, Fetherston might push the envelope a bit farther and the audience will remain amazed at the evolving talent emerging from this young female designer. Go Erin Go!
