A little personal note to you


Well....there has been a lot happening here at the headquarters, and I must say, the thrill is building!! So much has happened recently, with the launch of our Spring.Summer 2011 collection, that these new endeavors are exciting!  This last week has been a whirlwind, and more info is on its way.


To start, our opening was a success!! So many of our friends and clients came out to show their support, order off of the new collection, and new faces have been through the space this week to see what our store front has to offer! Seeing their faces here, has not only offered us real strength, in believing in this vision of Fashion dreams, but reinforces the focus we need to keep going and growing.  Support from others is a large part of Femilia, and the grass rooted style approach that has been taken until today. Thank you! And thanks to www.risism.com for giving us a wonderful perspective photo of a Femilia client experience at last week's trunk show for Fashion in Detroit! Risism, is an official sponsor for the DESIGN.DEFINE.DETROIT event on Saturday November 14, 2010, at the 5 Elements gallery in Corktown.  This will be next available opportunity for you to see the collection up close and personal.
