Thursday night fashion: Goldstein Garden Party + Calamity!

Tonight is chock-full of local fashion shows and events. Unfortunately, there are only so many hours in the day and I'll have to limit myself to the Calamity! fashion show and Dig Design, the Friends of the Goldstein's annual Garden Party (and kicking off the night with the Meet the Men Happy Hour for One Man Minneapolis at OM).

The Calamity! fashion show at the Lab Theatre will include looks by some of the Twin Cites' up-and-coming designers, including Emily Bryngelson (Tender Cakes), Kathryn Sterner (Kathryn V), Amanda Chaffin (Dawson), and Niki English. Here's a sampling of the looks from the show's lookbook:

The Dig Design Garden Party at Rapson Hall on the University of Minnesota campus will give me the chance to deck myself out in local designer threads (custom Tender Cuts by Emily Bryngelson) and don a straw hat. The event put on by the Friends of the Goldstein will feature the spring lines from two longtime designers in the local fashion industry, Joynoelle and Russell Bourrienne. Here's a sampling of their spring collections:
