Fashion

Curious about Spokane’s growing fashion scene? Begin by checking out nonprofit Runway Renegades, who’ve hosted an annual fashion show featuring local designers for over a decade. They use proceeds from ticket sales to support local designers, and those designers, in turn, volunteer with organizations supporting at-risk youth.

Kate J. Reed

Party Krill is an illustration and surface design brand that values play, pretty things, and rough edges. All work is based on Kate Reed’s illustration, inspired by the fringes of her imagination and the occasional google search for images of “hippos sitting like dogs.” Kate runs her website named Party Krill. On her website, you are able to purchase pretty and playful wrapping paper, greeting cards, and art prints. Her work will soon be available in local shops. You can sign up for her newsletter to keep updated on new releases and partnerships!

Clifford Dube aka Passport44

Cliff’s art is very diverse, ranging from photorealistic graphite drawings to bold surreal and abstract paintings, often flowing and psychedelic with vibrant colors that often have UV effects. He first learned the artistic craft from his mother, Jane Dube, who was an interior designer during his youth. He continued to follow artistic interests in school, studying visual foundations and /drawing at Seminole State College in Lake Mary, FL. His work is full of sharp lines, curves, and vivid colors amidst heavy contrast.
