Nick Verreos Hosts "Wine Women and Shoes" Benefit in Seattle May 5th!!!

Seattle Fashionistas: I'm Coming To Rate Your Shoes...Oh, and also to HOST a FABULOUS Party for a GREAT Cause!!

In three weeks, on Thursday May 5th to be exact, I will be in Seattle (one of my FAVORITE cities in the World, thank you very much!) to host that city's "Wine Women & Shoes" Gala benefiting Seattle Children's Home.

The Seattle Children's Home has been in existence sine 1884 , providing incredible mental health services to children and their families. I am so honored to be involved with such a wonderful organization. If you've been keeping up with my lovely BLOG here, you may know that I have a fondness for Seattle--the Emerald City--and have hosted several FAB events there. This time, I am being invited back--and I assure you, this event will be AMAZING! Why?

Nick Verreos Hosts Seattle's "Wine Women & Shoes" Benefit May 5th

First of all, I am HOSTING! In other words: Watch Out Seattle! It's going to get COUTURE-Crazy! In addition, you will get to shop, nibble (yes, there will be lots of food darlings!) and taste sensational wines--and actually meet the vintners behind them! Vintners--now that's your new word of the day! (at least for moi)

Sketch Artist: Nick Verreos Fashion Illustration for Stefania Fernandez Miss Universe 2009 "Nick Verreos Orbit Gum-inspired Gown"

You will also get a chance to bid on one-of-a-kind experiences, including an original ONE-OF-KIND fashion illustration --done by ME--right then and there!
I will also be giving prizes for the "sassiest" pairs of SHOES! Like these Louboutin's above (yep, if any ladies wear these, I might just SCREAM in glee!)

And there's more: Here's a Rundown of the Evening's Festivities:
5-6pm: VIP Reception where I will give a special discussion on current fashion trends (for VIP ticket holders only!)

6-7pm: Red Carpet Arrivals--I will be commenting on attendee's FAB pumps! (Yep, it's like me doing my Live From The Academy awards Red Carpet Show!)

7-8pm: Party Dinner--time to DISH on Project Runway and my new upcoming TV show--as well as having Katy Perry AND Carrie Underwood wear my designs

8:30-9pm: Raffle and Best Shoe Contest--and this is when I will sketch my original one-of-a-kind sketch to the Winning Bidder!!!

I am so excited about hosting this event and KNOW that it will be THE Seattle Event people will be talking about for YEARS!!!

Nick Verreos Will Attend Seattle's Third Annual Forbidden Fashion Show!

Sexy SeattleAs I wrote in my last post, I will be in Seattle Friday June 4Th, to attend and judge the fabulous Third Annual Project Red Dress, but right afterward, I will also attend the very sexy Forbidden Fashion Show, at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel, featuring the hottest national and international Men's and Women's lingerie and swimwear brands.

And the following evening, on Saturday June 5Th, there will be a very exclusive Forbidden Fashion Show After Party, which I will of course, attend (get those cameras ready!), where you can meet the models, dance and have some delicious cocktails at the Little Red Studio/Bistro. This will be my first time attending Seattle's Forbidden Fashion Show, and I'm working on my non-existent six-pack abs, for it!

Nick Verreos to Judge Seattle's Third Annual Project Red Dress June 4Th and a Workshop on June 5Th!!

Seattle Fashionistas: Get RED Carpet Ready!!!!
I am SOOO EXCITED to announce that I am returning to Seattle in two weeks: I have been invited back (I guess Seattle "Hearts Nick"!) to be a "special guest" and judge at the 3Rd Annual Project Red Dress. It will be held once again at the historic and oh-so-elegant Fairmont Olympic Hotel in Downtown Seattle on June 4Th.Monir Zandghoreishi and Nick Verreos, Project Red Dress 2009

Project Red Dress is a fabulous event created by the Seattle Fashion DIVA (and my official Persian "Mother"!) IADT Fashion Design Program Chair and FGI's Seattle Regional Director, Monir Zandghoreishi, where students from local fashion design schools create a one-of-a-kind red gown and "debut" it in this Gala Fashion Show. Proceeds from the event benefits the American Heart Association so it is all for a very worthwhile cause. Take Notes: Nick Verreos judging Project Red Dress 2009

I have been a judge for the last 2 years and it is always UNBELIEVABLE!!!! There were some amazing gowns and equally amazing talent in the Emerald City! Hopefully Seattle and the guests will allow me to do my Nick Runway Walk to "Bless" the show!
NICK SEATTLE WORKSHOP, Saturday June 5Th:
I will also be doing a very special workshop the following day at the International Academy of Design and Technology/IADT Seatlle/Tukwila Campus, on the topic of "Trends" from 11 AM-1PM Saturday June 5Th.
It's FREE but RSVP's are required.
