Chain Reaction

Here is a showcase of fall's eye-popping trends from color-blocked dresses and lush leather to knitwear cardigans and twill jackets provided, of course, by a bevy of stores and boutiques that bind the 'Burgh with the best in designer style-triggering a chain reaction of fashion emergence.

 

In an unprecedented show of unity, designer chains have set up shop in Pittsburgh, linking our region as a burgeoning style mecca with the latest trends in the apparel industry. Within that mix of national trend-setting retailers, we include local high-end chains Larrimor's and Roberta Weissburg Leathers (with two locations each and counting), which offer designer labels like Max Mara, Burberry and Andrew Marc to name a few.

It's a beautiful thing that we have more designer stores coming to our market. It gives us more options to choose from without having to travel to another city or outlet mail to purchase our favorite fashions.

I have to say that this spread (I first saw it in the magazine), was very impressive. It was definitely high-end.
