My favorite Kansas City local clothing designer, hands down is Monkey Wrench. I have had the pleasure of walking for them in many fashion shows, as well as sporting some of their stuff for photo shoots. I love their clothes to absolute bits and pieces, and I know everyone here on PL will surely love them as well! Check out their website, www.monkeywrenchclothing.com. =0]
They're also on Facebook, so "Like" them, if it should tickle your fancy to do so. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Kansas-City-MO/Monkey-Wrench-Clothing/193421141983?ref=search&sid=1235497073.2342749293..1
Ooo thanks for sharing, Tessa! It's so awesome to see great local designers being supported! Nothin like good old fashioned word of mouth recommendations! :)
Teehee! They're in the process of revamping their website, so it currently doesn't show their capabilities to their full extent. They can do vintage recreates as well as complete custum orders, if you just tell them what you have in mind. Most of their clothing is made-to-order anyway. =0D
