Volume 128: KnowShow SS14 lifestyle and fashion trade show at Vancouver Convention Centre West on July 30, 2013. Hashtag: #knwshw. More photos available on Flickr and Tumblr. Also: SS12 / FW13 / SS13 / FW14.
That time twice a year has stuck again. Trendsetters, fashionistas, and hipsters alike gathered to preview next spring/summer's skate, surf, boarding, and general youth lifestyle brands at KnowShow. This time's opening night show was anchored by the Endless Summer Fashion Presentation full of amusing beach bikini styles with (some very skinny and tanned) models adorned in retro swimwear from Roxy and Vitamin A Swimwear.
Roxy displaying a more youthful, skimpier aesthetic to their stylings modelled on some very slender ladies.
Always intriguing checking out what the Herschel Supply Co. brand's increasingly popular and trendy bags and back packs are up to.
Conversely to Roxy, Vitamin A going with a much more retro style and classic look to their 1960s inspired swimsuits.
Amidst the posing and simulated sandy beach setting, a little hula hooping and summertime fun.
Walking the convention floor and browsing all the clothing vendors including Reef's active and eco-friendly surf apparel.
Feeling a definite pacific and west coast feel to the spring/summer beach styles.
