As I see It September Was a Success!
// September 24th, 2009 // Events, FashioncamNY
September has been a worldwind, Brooklyn Labor Day, Fashion Night Out, New York Fashion Week! All while trying to target an October 1st launch for the Next phase of DeMarketplace and getting serveral local businesses on line… Oh yes and on top of that becoming active in Blacks in Technology and Black Media Professionals
September is my Birth month so yes I took a few days off simply to sit quietly and reflect and breathe, to say I had a blast is an understatement! We had the blog offline for a couple days but it seems fine now, so please excuse the changes as we get everything going for our launch next month!
I have to tell you just a bit about FashionCampNY 2009! I am an advocate of the barcamp methodology but the FashionCamp planning committee was awesome… This would never have been possible without them! We’re still debriefing and I will be posting more about them and the cool presenters and presentation as we go forward!

I”m not sure how the other rooms went but Danielle and I had a blast in the studio. Talking business and technology as many who had never actually sewn hacked tshirt and expressed their creativity!
Zac from Makerbot Industries made everyone’s weekend… there’s video to come, but seeing the Makerbot in action and and actually taking home a bracelet that was printed on site!
Then there was the wearable technology section, The Hacking Couture team, Dot NYC Macala And the ladies from FashMarketing.ME, Atim from Calabar Imports Speaking on global retail, The Virtual Options of Fashion Research Insitute… I still have to thank everyone individually but I’ll say it publicly thanks for a remarkable weekend!
I promise more in depth post over the next few weeks well as info on where Technology and fashion is headed! We’ll do this again and LA is planning their own! Join http://meetups.fashioncamp.org for updates!
