AFW Spotlight: David Peck

David Peck, the designer and founder of CrOp by David Peck, took a few minutes to reflect on Aspen in anticipation of Aspen Fashion Week, March 11-14.  We are thrilled to have CrOp by David Peck featured at The Chateau at The St. Regis Aspen, and it sounds like he is equally as excited. Here is what David had to say:

What is Aspen style?
Aspen style for me is the perfect balance of sport and chic. You may be sweating, but you’re doing it in style!

Ski or ride? New gear for ’11/’12?
I’m super excited about my new Lexus CT200h. It’s a hybrid hatchback, really comfortable, and we can fit a TON of clothes in it for our trunk shows. You can’t beat the miles per gallon either!

Sponsor News: Sunday Riley Modern Skincare partnered with AFW

We at Aspen Fashion Week are proud (and incredibly excited) to have Sunday Riley Modern Skincare as the official makeup + skincare sponsor for 2012.

More Powder Days Forecasted: LET IT SNOW!

To a ski lover, there are no better words than “powder day.” Here in Aspen, we live for new snow. It is no secret winter had a slow start in Colorado, but things are really turning around. In the last 24 hours, Snowmass has received 6.5” and the current conditions are powder/packed powder. It looks like Mother Nature is finally shining favorably upon us, because snow is predicted for 7 out of the next 10 days.
This wide range of weather conditions has allowed us to utilize all of our fabulous ski gear, from extra base layers to spring-weight jackets to powder skis. We are all looking forward to hitting the slopes March 11-14, during Aspen Fashion Week, so keep doing your snow dances and LET IT SNOW.
