Awesome at Artscape

This past weekend was Artscape in Baltimore, which meant tons of people enjoying every art form imaginable!  We came, sold, and conquered in the blazing heat at our DIY booth.  We sold over 100 pieces of clothing and got our name out. Make sure to like us on Facebook!

Here are some pics from the weekend.

We had all three lines out for sale.

We got a bubble machine for the booth, which little kids really enjoyed.

The reworked vintage skirts, selling for ONLY $24 were a hit!

Fellow designer Virginia, of Deda & Young, stopped by to say hi.  She was a tad taller than we remembered.

Summer Photo Shoot!

We’ve been hard at work making the clothes for our in house line, working on more shirts and reworking some vintage clothes. We recently had a photo shoot to show off everything we’ve been doing. The photos were taken by Boy Toy.

You can find the entire lookbook on our Facebook page. Our items are also posted up on our Etsy.

Party Came and Went…

…And it was awesome. We had so much fun with all of the performers, the art was great and we all partied in our favorite Natty Paint clothes. Gutter Magazine’s own J.M. Giordano was there to take some pictures to remind us of how fabulous it was:

The website looks awesome, the clothes look great and everyone donning it looks hot.

There were performances by Lazerbitch, Hounds, in every room, DJ Lemz, and Molly Siegel (of Ponytail). The Effervescent Collective incorporated their dancing to the acts and was able to add to the already great performances.

There was also art by Ann Everton, James Singewald, Karen Yasinsky, Cyle Metzger and Matthew Shelley.

We all had so much fun and we have plans to work with these artists in the very near future! Stay tuned!

Double blog!

What comes to mind when one thinks of Baltimore’s fashion scene? Who triumphs as commander of the B’more style squadron? Natty Paint emerged victorious without even having to don a pair of boxing gloves in the face-off (after all, we are eco-friendly lovers..not fighters..)

What are we talking about exactly? Just some blog-action on the part of Paulette Wilson, a senior Journalism major at Towson University, who was commissioned by a class at Towson to create a specific blog outlining and defining the Baltimore fashion scene: The companies, designers, and stores that comprise of the pulse of Baltimore’s very living and breathing iconoclastic fashion entity. Paulette selected Natty Paint as a very important Baltimore fashion force to be reckoned with! (Alongside the creator of Baltimore Fashion Week April Camlin)

Thus she will interview Natty Paint’s very own Emily Li Mandri in her attempt to define “Baltimore’s fashion scene through asking real experts around town”–and later write up her lovely blog- Ms. Charm’s Chic.

What exciting coverage! Don’t forget to check out both the blog itself and the interview with Natty Paint!

Photos from Look Book Shoot!

Friday’s photo shoot truly exceeded our expectations. While the weather may have been icy cold, the ensuing pictures came out hotter than Baltimore in July.  To see the full gamut of photos, check out Natty Paint’s page on Facebook.

Behind the Scenes

Here are some pics from the look book shoot on Friday with J.M. Giordano of Gutter Mag.  The weather was nearly arctic, but our fresh designs warmed everybody up (The coffee could have helped too…)

Applying make-up to the models

Mmm…roast beef, turkey, brie, & hummus sandwiches!

Dear Cape, Meet Natty Paint…

As we get ready for the upcoming look book shoot to be photographed by JMG of Gutter Mag, we are creating show stopping pieces! One project was turning a vintage raincoat into a cape… check out the pics. Next up, a ONESIE! Natty Paint has never been so hipster…

Ripping open seams…

tada!
