The Locus Projects Locust Salon Scholars Fall 2015 – Spring 2016 Semesters’ line-up is amazing!
Not sure if I can attend all of them, but definitely will be checking out more than one.

With almost 40,000 visitors, the Design Miami/ 2014 Tenth Anniversary Edition was it’s most successful iteration to date. 35 galleries from as far as Seoul, Lebanon and South Africa and, for the first time, from Miami’s own Wynwood art district, shared their distinctive individual visions and beautifully curated displays featuring the best in both vintage and contemporary collectible design.
As fashion icon supreme Diana Vreeland said, “…The eye has to travel…” and mine sure did as you can see in the following video collection of photos I took there:
In attendance were notable visitors including collectors like Patricia Cisneros and Adriana Cisneros Griffin, Peter Brandt, Tico Mugrabi, Aby Rosen, Barry Friedman, Beth DeWoody, George Lindemann, Paula Crown, and Svetlana Uspenskaya, architects Zaha Hadid and David Adjaye, artists Tracey Emin, Theaster Gates, Marina Abramović and Trevor Paglen, magazine editors Glenda Bailey and Margaret Russell, model and business woman Elle Macpherson, actors Owen Wilson and Jane Fonda, gallerist Emmanuel Perrotin, designer Ron Arad, musician André 3000 Benjamin and hotelier André Balazs.

Looking further back to 2013, it was evident that this design event had set the bar for design events in the U.S.

Modernism Week 2016 – February 11th – February 21st, 2016
The coolest celebration of midcentury design and architecture, Modernism Week, takes place every February in Palm Springs, California and 2016 looks like it will be the best event ever!

This year all the design and fashion planets have aligned in London because The London Design Festival and London Fashion Week SS16 will overlap for several glorious days in September!
London Fashion Week kicks off first from September 18th – September 22nd with The London Design Festival starting one day later from September 19th – September 27th.
Here’s a quick look at these amazing events:
With all the scheduled shows, programs, panels and side events, those attending better take their vitamins and up their intake of kale smoothies cause this kind of scheduling is not for the weak!

Mark your fashion calendars folks – the provisional show schedule for London Fashion Week SS16 is now live!
Over 75 designers are confirmed to show in London, 18th – 22nd September 2015. New designers this season include Hill & Friends, Versus & Zandra Rhodes.
June heralded the start of a searing hot South Florida summer! Since leaving New York years ago, each summer down here seems to get hotter and hotter.
So, instead of letting my dear readers sweat through a long, boring post, I figure showing pics from my Instagram is better than a dissertation.
