MIAMI, FLA – Fashion designer Kayce Armstrong will expose her highly anticipated
SweaterNation line during “Underground Sunshine,” an exclusive multimedia fashion show
Friday, December 1, 2006. Hosted by Juni Boutique’s Julie Johnson and Ninfa.
Armstrong’s inspiration for SweaterNation evolved from seeing the locals’ penchant for wearing
sweaters during her countless treks through Denmark and Scandinavia. The result is romantic,
edgy and forward-thinking dresses for the holiday season both here in Miami and abroad. The
line is constructed from hundreds of deconstructed sweaters, shawls, vintage and recycled
fabrics.
Accolades consistently surround Armstrong and her often witty, ironic and sensual designs.
Armstrong was recently City Link magazine’s cover story, and she was also featured in Gen Art’s
IGNITE! 2006 as well as its Shop Miami events. Her designs remain true to her “strategy for
renewal” philosophy, a belief that innovative fashion can come from recycled fabrics.
Within the iron gates of the Soya & Pomodoro restaurant lies the elegant and weathered
architecture of the historic Lincoln Bank lobby, the perfect venue to debut SweaterNation.
Italian, trattoria style food, beer and wine will be available in the restaurant. The Sweater Nation
show begins at 9 p.m. and will run simultaneously with the chilly arctic images of “Crystals of
Light” by Icelandic photographer AO.
After the runway show, chill out to the cool, electronic sounds of Xtrasense live with special
guests performing at 10 pm, and putting the icing on the night is the sexy electro punk pop band,
Kill Miss Pretty, performing at 11 pm.
The shows are free and open to the public. Limited seating is available for the fashion show.
Soya & Pomodoro restaurant will be serving dinner from 7pm-11pm. Reservations are strongly
recommended. For RSVP contact Leslie at 786-357-5519
Several of Armstrong’s designs are available for purchase at the Juni Boutique, 213A NE 2nd
