Editors NoteWelcome to Reach Magazine’s special edition fashion issue. We are proud of what we have created in this issue, and I hope you all enjoy
of all thank Mike Chatwin and Tawnya Busch - this issue would not exist without their vision and dedicated work. Special thanks goes out to Black Sunrise Pictures, Inner Ring Masters, designers, stylists, models, and the Reach Magazine production team.
I’m sure you are wondering why we decided to dedicate a whole issue to fashion entrepreneurs. The fashion industry in my opinion is very different when compared to other entrepreneurial industries. Fashion is a business that considers a whole range of factors that other industries don’t have to deal with – a notion that peaked my interest when talking to differentfashion designers. Factors such as trends, public opinion, seasons, budget,size, sex, and even race are factors that are not taken for granted by designers.
With this in mind, we carefully selected designers that incorporate the
photo shoots, and we are very proud of them all. We hope you enjoy this special edition issue of Reach Magazine – and look forward to our fall issue of Reach Magazine which comes out in September.
We thank you for your dedicated support.

In an old warehouse in East Vancouver resides a master artisan who specializes in reworked vintage fashions. What once were old T-shirts, jackets, jeans and sweaters, Melissa Ferriera of Adhesif Clothing turns into “new” one-of-a-kind pieces.
with second hand clothing started at an early age. Growing up with not very much, Melissa’s family frequented thrift shops to clothe themselves. At a young age, Melissa started teaching herself how to sew and has been experimenting with textiles ever since. Twenty plus years later, Melissa went back to her roots by working as a buyer for True Value Vintage. She scoured warehouses in the Lower Mainland and abroad
doing so, she noticed there was a lot of interest in using
recycled material and set out to create her own clothing label in 2007. Today, Adhesif Clothing is available in 14 stores across Canada. For Melissa Ferreira, success is a combination of inspiration, passion, and action. She says, “Adhesif Clothing continues to be driven by my waste not, want not attitude. My desire is to produce original pieces from recycled materials that are wearable but are also eco-friendly. I want my customers to look good and feel good knowing that they’ve made a positive impact on the environment.” In the fashion world, it seems behind every successful designer there’s a right-hand person who enables and guides the artist to create a viable business. Marc Jacobs has Michael Duffy. Yves Saint Laurent had Pierre Bergé. Valentino has Giancarlo Giammetti. While Melissa waits
for her Duffe, Berge or Giammetti, she continues to remain
to work with a set of goals to accomplish. When I leave work I feel complete knowing that I’ve done my very best that day,” shares Melissa. Her advice to entrepreneurs: “Be realistic about your goals. Achieve them daily. Have a sense of balance. Take risks, be creative and be innovative.” This month’s issue of REACH showcases pieces from Adhesif’s FW 2009 collection. According to Melissa the collection was her take on “What an equestrian socialite would wear to a tea party in the 1950s. In fact, all of the pieces are named after thoroughbreds.” And for the guy? “He’s a lumberjack equestrian who went to the tea party,” she says this with a big smile on her face. The denim pieces are part of her Rags to Riches

collection. Designed and produced out of pure boredom, the edgy and eccentric pieces play with colors, shapes, and textiles. Made from hand dyed, hand stitched vintage Levis denim jeans, the pieces (like the people who buy them) have an attitude and personality of their own. Sounds very Vivienne Westwood? That’s because Vivienne is one
unusual elements of style made use of historical 17th and 18th century cloth cutting principles, and reinterpreting these in radical pieces worn by bands like the Sex Pistols. Outside of the entrepreneur and designer character Melissa plays, she is someone with a great sense of humor. Alongside a sensitive soul, she also has an inquisitive mind that questions the world around us. She communicates through art with vintage clothing as her
what keeps you up at night? For Melissa “Its knowing that tomorrow I get to create the idea that I thought about the night before.” Spoken like a true artist.

The glamorous girls, they are everywhere. They have full, perfectly waved hair. Their make-up is pristine. They’re wearing that designer dress that you saw in the window, but thought you couldn’t pull it off.
Vancouver’s own Carlie Wong, knew she wanted to be a designer at the age of 11. Her line stems from whatever she is into at the moment, producing collections that almost read as the story board to her life. She creates pieces for a strong and confident woman, who is not afraid to make a statement. By trusting her instinct in everything she designs, this proves that her intuition is nothing short of perfection. She provides the glamorous girls with exactly what they’re looking for.

Now more than ever you are surrounded with people possessing a different fashion sense. This is what makes the world interesting, and differentiates one personality from the next. Both styles will remain ever-evolving and will never

intensely devastating. Rewards and notoriety don’t come without hard work, creativity and innovation. You need to have the skills and drive to make your dreams a reality. Examples of this are Shanda Jerrett, Rozemerie Cuevas, and Christi York three fashion entrepreneurs that have proven they have what it takes to gain success in the city.Canadian-born Rozemerie Cuevas has learned what is necessary to run her own label in the 20 years she has been operating. The label, Jaqueline Conoir, is named in tribute to Rozemerie’s mother. The name choice is admirable as the label itself showcases strength, femininity and classic tailoring. Rozemerie’s designs cater to young professionals who desire beautiful pieces. Despite the challenges of entrepreneurship, Rozemerie is not even close to slowing down the sophistication she brings to Vancouverites. The unique shopping experience Cuevas offers has many loyal clients coming back; a day representative of the rich and famous, with wardrobe and personal shoppers to attend to each client’s needs.

York is also the founder and organizer at the Green Christmas Sustainable Gift Market, an initiative that focuses on stylist sustainable gifts. York’s involvement in the community and Vancouver talent shows how she gives back to the community. Each designer has all come a long way with themselves and their businesses. With each of them looking forward to what the future holds, there is no doubt that each and every one of them will continue to make strides.

And the response didn’t go unnoticed. Shortly after, both Saks Fifth Avenue and Holt Renfrew called Matlo asking to see what he was working on. Matlo and his team prepared to jet off to New York, stopping in Toronto on the way.

VANCOUVER CIRCUS SCHOOL & INNER RING CIRCUS
Since 2004, the Vancouver Circus School has been training it’s student performers to wow the lower mainland with their contortion, unicycle, tumbling, and acrobatic acts. And due to an increasing demand for performers, the company stemmed off just over two years ago to create its first performance circus troop called Inner Ring Masters. The group, consisting of ten exclusive artists and numerous freelancers, constructs what Travis Johnson, the initiator behind the circus venture, calls Inner Ring Innovations - unique shows created for each corporate, non-profit or charity organization. Up next, a journey to White Horse to perform their show entitled, Bounce.
Check out www.vancouvercircusschool.ca for more information.
Helping us out on our Jason Matlo shoot was world-class tumbler Cletus Okpoh, parkour acrobat Jesse Pierce, unicyclist Nigel Wakita, contortionist Amanda Shatzko and object manipulator Ryan Mellors.
