Men's Fashion Week Dallas, the reemergence

theFstate had the pleasure of catching a close look behind the scenes of the production of Men’s Fashion Week Dallas and their presentation of Eco-Fashion. Fashion is a high stakes world with high risk and the eyes of aesthetic review always circling around the bend. Fashion is forever fluid and constantly changing and evolving. This year Men’s Fashion Week Dallas takes a notable look at sustainable trends and quality apparel fit for the runway geared toward the luxuries of the elegance of everyday life. The designs were stylish and defined.

This year casted seven unique designers including High Ideals, Ghent Fur, Face Off Boutique, Phit Clothing, Alai Adore, DMKD Collective and Ramiro Rodriguez. Having assisted with the back of house production one of the Designer Brands that snagged my attention was the DMKD Collective. After later collecting further research with a visit to both their Instagram profile and website it completely confirmed my understanding of why. This brand is not your typical designer brand. It is steeped in both functional and inspirational value.

"Only the strong” is the motto for the brand driven by the values of determination, motivation, knowledge and drive. The brand uses muted, opaque colors, neutrals and tones. It takes to the streets to redefine the brilliance and strength of finely crafted streetwear. The brand is representative of not only the entrepreneurial lifestyle but of the intrinsic strength of us all. For more information about the brand and on where to purchase visit dmkdcollective.com

With strong designers representing value, a packed house, vendors, music, food and signature beverages the household name of Men’s Fashion Week Dallas reemerges to showcase their staying power. The eye capturing event, we have been told on good authority, was a small precursor of the good things to follow. The fashion show was held at the Art of Digital Influence (A.O.D.I) .

The Daily Mechanics of the Human Business

Every struggling entrepreneur struggles for a couple of reasons.  The main one is being spread too thin.  For larger companies who have a farther reach the issue is the same.  Often times what is at a loss is the human component.  We are given technology and taught that we should create automated systems…not wrong.  However, automated systems are never truly void of human connections or relationships.   In every case there is a human thinking cap behind the system of automation.
