Charleston has seen many positive changes since Saida and Caroline were young girls. Many of our Saturday afternoons were spent walking up King Street to M. Dumas, Evelyn Rubin, Elza’s and Jack Krawcheck’s. Sadly many of these are no longer around but what has come in their places are stores with national and international presence. Charleston has become not only a destination for lovers of history and architecture but a fashion destination as well. As if we need more reasons to love Springtime in Charleston, 3 years ago Ayoka Lucas, Style Editor for Charleston Magazine had the vision to create Charleston Fashion Week and it has since become a huge success! The event, which is held for a week in mid March, features spring fashions from local boutiques, emerging designers, and model competitions. Our friend Edmund F. “Ned” Brown IV attended this year’s festivities and wrote a great piece about change in Charleston and Charleston Fashion Week in today’s New York Social Diary.
