FOJO x All Access: Fashion @ Tysons Galleria

FOJO went to the All Accesss: Fashion event at Tysons Galleria this past weekend. This was the first time this event was thrown in the Tysons Corner area and we have to admit, we were extremely impressed with everything.

The Weekend was filled with exclusive runway shows, champagne toasts in several of the participating stores, a meet-and-greet with Project Runway’s Tim Gunn and great conversation with several amazing A-listers from all around the DMV.

We took a couple pictures this weekend, but please bear with us because our current camera isn’t that great.

:(

Here’s a couple pictures:

FOJO x DC Fashion Week: CORJOR INTERNATIONAL COUTURE SWIMWEAR

It’s been a while since we’ve updated but we’re back everyone! And we have A LOT of good news! Each set of news will be presented to you in a different blog post so be patient but the time is coming! FOJO is almost here!

Last Thursday FOJO made an appearance at the DC Fashion Week Swimwear Fashion Show event at Senate Square in NE, DC.

CORJOR INTERNATIONAL COUTURE

Corjor International Couture was showcased at the event.

A brief history on Corjor:

Ean Williams used his two oldest sons’ names, Corey and Jordan, to coin “Corjor” as his label’s name. After landing in the pages of Upscale Magazine (Feb. 2004) and gracing the cover of the Prince George’s Gazette, Williams decided to go one step further and enable the world to see the tremendous designing talent that is thriving in the nation’s capitol by producing and sponsoring DC Fashion Week. He is dedicated to helping other aspiring designers show their collections and build their businesses. He is also an advisory board member for the Black Fashion Designers Association, Inc. In 2003, Williams won the “INDIE Best Menswear Designer” award in New York. Corjor International has three brands: Corjor Sport, Corjor Menswear and available by special order — Corjor International Couture.
