[the 3 finalists for the local designer contest]I enjoy the pieces in this store--island flair without being overly-touristy. Sometimes I like the things in there, sometimes I don't. But what I do like is that while they stock reputable fashion labels (e.g. L.A. based designer, Tina Turk), they also create a space to support local hawaii-based aspiring fashion designers.
A couple days after the grand opening a few months ago, I bought an unusal silk blouse by Martinique at this store, as well as a couple of other pieces that I love (all of which are in the closet in Hawaii).
Starting Nov 22nd, those who stop by the store can vote for their favorite local desginer of the year--the state wide contest has been narrowed down to three finalists who need your vote to win $2000 and $500 for a local charity. For more info see: http://www.islandedgehawaii.com/home/News/
