That's how ridonculously stoked I was to get to wear this gorgeous Obakki dress to the Leo Awards recently.



Obakki is a local Vancouver design house known for their earthy, artistic designs. The clothes are manufactured in Canada, in Vancouver in fact. As well, the Obakki Foundation http://obakkifoundation.org works to support humanitarian causes around the world. Not only are the clothes beautiful and special, the company itself is as well. They were so friendly and down to earth to work with which is not always the case in the fashion world... My mom came with me to pick out a dress and she was quickly converted as a fan of the brand, as she herself began coveting the lovely items on the racks.



Thank you Obakki! Their flagship store in Gastown in Vancouver is worth checking out based on the layout alone. It won the Governer's General award for its innovative and contemporary design.
