Tadashi Collection Weblog

With our Spring/Summer 2010 fashion show just days away the press is already abuzz with Fashion Week fever. The Thursday, Sept 10 issue of San Antonio Express News focuses on the inspiration of the various designers, including, of course, Tasdahi Shoji.

Los Angeles-based Tadashi Shoji thinks better economic times are ahead, indicated by recent upturns in the stock and real estate markets. He says he will continue to provide women with "quality dresses at a democratic price point that they can use time and time again."

He's working with interesting new fabrications and a few new silhouettes, he says. "I am hoping the new fabrics and shapes will draw in a new consumer base while not alienating our core customer."

Many celebrities were in attendance at the Spring 2010 Tadashi Shoji Fashion Show. Among them were Eva Marcelle, Keri Hilson, Tinsley Mortimer and Chrisette Michelle. As an added bonus two of them even wore Tadashi Shoji. Tinsley Mortimer chose a favorite from the last fashion show - a rose memory taffeta petal-sleeve dress from the Fall/Winter 2009 Tadashi Shoji Runway Collection. Keri Hilson wore a classy one shouldered black dress from the Fall 2009 Tadashi Shoji Collection.

Today, live on her show, Oprah wore a rose faille 3/4 sleeve draped shoulder dress from the Fall 2009 Tadashi Shoji Runway Collection.

And yet more press keeps emerging for Tadashi Shoji's Spring 2010 Fashion Show.
