About Me

WESTWORD'S BEST STORE ANYWHERE ON COLFAX 2004 :: WESTWORD'S 2007 MASTERMIND AWARD :: BEST NEW STORE IN BELMAR 2007 :: VOTED EYE SORE IN LIFE ON CAPITOL HILL APRIL 2007 ISSUE (HATER'S!)
The Shoppe is Right Next Door to The Fabric Lab + Plastic Chapel
THE SHOPPE: CEREAL + CUPCAKES + DESIGN GOODSThe Fabric Lab an interactive all locals only boutique + gallery + hair salon. Josh & Tran Wills graphic and fashion designers themselves, opened this specialty boutique four years ago due to the frustration of Colorado relying on New York and LA to define our sense of style. When right here in our own backyard we have the most talented designers, artists, and musicians that we needed to be supporting first. Now we are the ONLY store in Colorado to house one-of-a-kind handmade clothing, accessories, and art MADE ONLY by Colorado designers and artists. The Fabric Lab started with eight Colorado designers and now we have grown over fifty plus . Which just shows how much Colorado is growing and now more and more. Colorado designers and artists are emerging out of their creative shadows and finally having a place to call home in Colorado and The Fabric Lab. Our foundation will always be built on a collective of DIY Colorado based artists who believe in exploring the boundaries between SHOPPING + ART + DESIGN + CULTURE. By doing so, we offer innovative and unique goods that are made with a whole lot of love + inspiration! P.S. Check in every now and then for Upcoming Events, Art Shows, Our Famous Colfax Fashion Shows (where we do them right in front of the store!) Check back often, as our goods are all limited-edition and one+of+a+kind and change constantly!So please come and support your fellow peeps by visiting the store located at 3105 East Colfax Avenue Two Blocks West of The Bluebird Theater or visit THE FABRIC LABAlso check out our awesome extra services we provide!BIG HAIRY MONSTER:HAIR SALON @ THE FABRIC LABThe Fabric Lab Blog: Just incase you don’t get enough of us!.. .... .... .. .. ..
