RI$I$M caught up with this miss while shifting through the exiting crowd after the Trias show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. After receiving a nice compliment from this lovely lady, I asked her if I could take a quick snapshot of her outfit. Middle East style was flooding New York during fashion week this year; excuse me while I tap on a touchy subject, but even with all the silly commotion about a Mosque being built by ground zero, there sure were a lot of turbans & harem pants going around the city. Whatever the confusion -or contradictory- is, we love this.

Our girls, Fotoula Lambros & Emily Thornhill, form one of Metro-Detroit’s favorite fashion lines, Femilia Organic Couture. Femilia debuts their Spring/Summer 2011 Collection, “The Future Vintage,” at this year’s Fashion In Detroit, taking place on the second day of the annual, 2-day event.

Proclaiming the fashionably-fit term, “eco-chic,” the 95% organic line is the epitome of what is not only environmentally conscious, but stylishly conscious. The all-white runway presentation at FID felt extra airy & soft, almost like cumulus clouds; & seeing some of the tulle-attached gowns could even give off the likes of a wedding dress. Femilia Couture‘s Spring/Summer 2011 line is presented as something like a white canvas; the girls got creative & opted to give their clients a choice in the color of their garments. The collection becomes fun & interactive as the client can custom tailor & suit the piece of their choice to their personality, choosing any color from the provided 8-tone palette.

With the nature of the collection, all orders are custom, & can be transacted by contacting Femilia via email (femiliacouture@gmail.com), phone (248.850.8939), OR visiting their newly opened store front located in Ferndale, MI! Check out the Femilia Organic Couture showroom open Tuesday-Saturday, 11pm-7pm at 420 Hilton Road, Ferndale, MI 48220.

You can also catch Femilia at RI$I$M sponsored event, DESIGN.DEFINE.DETROIT. a fashion industry gala to be held on November 13th of this year. More info at www.DesignDefineDetroit.com!

Introducing Detroit’s own Femilia Organic Couture‘s Spring/Summer 2011 collection, “The Future Vintage,” presented at Fashion In Detroit 2010.

The entire collection is purposely presented as a white palette because all pieces can be custom colored. Holler at your girls, Fotoula Lambros & Emily Thornhill at femiliacouture@gmail.com.


Peepin’ the Gary Graham Spring 2011 Collection presented at Milk Studios during New York Fashion Week this fall season. I instantly fell in love with the choice of highly layered patterns & fabrics, mostly neutral hues, the touch of scarlet red, & draping silhouettes. I’ve been noticing black is the new pastel for a lot of the Spring 2011 collections. Graham still keeps it classically spring with the floral prints, white linen, & under saturated colors, but I’m definitely digging his mixed-media approach.
