Buffalo David Bitton originally had an office in Los Angeles, California, but packed up and headed back to  Montreal, Canada where the Designer was really at home. Currently there are not any locations in the U.S but they are sold at other retail stores such as Buckle, specifically located in many malls across Upstate New York (where I live), of course else where around the country too. I really enjoyed hearing that the brand still remains a family affair, David's four brothers contribute to the brand as well as the involvement of all of their children. The brand is consistently working on collections, always six months in advance, for Spring 2015 they're channeling colors, pastels, whites & bleached. The styles include but are not limited to, kimonos, fringe, kaftan and capes with  a focused dress collection. Definitely looking forward to seeing more of the styles, the ones hanging in the showroom were to die for, a classmate even requested they make them in plus size, scalloped top perfection!

Needless to say at the end of the clip he received a well deserved round of applause for his photo's from his shoot with Buffalo David Bitton. He also attended the Billboard Awards accompanied by the Brand's Team.

The couple also has their own reality show which has clearly opened our eyes to his and their appeal! Erin, is as usual just flawless, but I think that she really is helping the brand and letting other customers see the brand in the exact way portrayed above...fur, denim, leather, chiseled, tall men & a perfectly feminine silhouette.

I must mention Diane Alexander (PR Director), she spoke to our class when we visited the Brand's NYC offices last week as part of a school trip. She was so welcoming, honest, helpful and eager to share what she knows about the industry, brand and what it takes to work and maintain a career in Fashion today.

 

As everyone knows, The 'Digital Age' has already arrived, and obviously many companies need to learn how to navigate in these new waters of advertising, sales and of course marketing. Buffalo David Bitton has truly embraced the new technologies and it shows with their use of social media, event styles/planning (*Example: A Nail Bar at NYFW) and celebrity ambassador success.

 

Special Thanks to Buffalo David Bitton, Diane Alexander, and GCC Fashion Business program trip coordinators/ my professors for arranging these special visits and learning experiences.
