Drumroll, Please... Its Time to Announce the Winner of Fur Competition

It has been a tough decision because we loved designs from all of the designers. Each designer had some original sketches that we absolutely loved and know our customers would love as well. If only we could take best designs from all 5 designer collections to create one big collection... but we had to choose one designer and best overall collection. 

We are very excited to announce that the winner of Orlando Emerging Designer Fur Competition is Inna Rudenko! We loved her overall style and designs. We look forward combining our fur knowledge and Inna's beautiful designs to bring one of a kind fur trimmed collection for the ultimate Orlando fashionistas. Best part is.. these one of a kind designs will be available for sale and proceeds of sales will be donated to local charities. Follow us so as not to miss our Fashion Show this fall during our 100 year anniversary celebration!

I also would like to mention that the competition is not over yet! You have an opportunity to vote for your favorite designer! All 5 designers had beautiful designs and we want to hear from you!
