This morning I picked up a copy of the Nashville Scene from Manuel, where I am working as a tailor 9-5.  I take a look at the cover image and my pupils dilate to the image of the beautiful Camille Birkhead swirling an elegant scarf and dress in a twirl. I read that there is coverage of the upcoming Nashville Fashion Week and immediately turn to the section. I flip through page by page, looking for at the beautiful spreads of outfits, hoping to see something good.  To my big surprise I turn the last page and see Camille decked head to toe in Eric Adler! What a rush.

I had been anticipating the publication anxiously because I had been working with Milton White, the creative director of the shoot and he told me the week prior that there were seven designers and only five would be features. I was so nervous, but what a rush it was to see my work featured among other amazing designers.

I was very happy to get this press especially because it shows that this jacket, at least is versatile across gender and season. I create menswear but this was modeled as a girlfriend look. I made this jacket for my fall collection but since its a corduroy floral, it also works for spring!  This look features a thin lapel corduroy floral/jet dinner jacket. The model is also wearing the Eric Adler peach pinstripe oxford and salt and pepper tweed jeans. What a great honor to be published among the best in the premiere “happening” magazine of Nashville!
