It's not weird to promote another blog's events when that blog is run by our dear friend Rachel of Project Beltway. Deets below, but the event takes place at Marvin from 3-6 pm. Fashion Week for the Spring 2010 collections begins September 10 in New York. If you won't make it to the tents at Bryant Park, we invite you to the roofdeck at Marvin.
Join us for East! an afternoon pop-up party to preview artist KEYA's Spring / Summer 2010 silk kaftan collection
Enjoy a fine fall afternoon on the Marvin roofdeck with exotic seasonal cocktails from Jake Worth, live DJ music, and a preview of artist/designer KEYA's 'Eco Chic' silk collection. Door donations ($10 suggested) and bar sales will benefit Ekta Community Projects, while a portion of proceeds from KEYA sales will benefit green hand skills in India and The Interally Displaced Persons Project in Sri Lanka.
