I love Gregory Parkinson’s colorful print based collections so was really excited to learn that the my L.A.-based, English-born designer friend was among the ten finalists nominated by the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund for their seventh annual award. Next week Frederic Fekkai will host a fashion show featuring several looks by each Finalist, which will take place at Chateau Marmont in Los Angles. The winner will be announced on November 15th at a gala dinner in New York City. Gregory’s dress shot for the cover of WWD back in 2008, above and his Spring Summer 2011 collection presented in New York a few weeks ago, below.
