Filed under: 88 QUEEN ST, tit_bit, portfolio worth!, web work, collaboration — bling @ 3:40 pm

We are very pleased to announce that the new website for local eco fashion label 88 Queen St is UP and RUNNING!
A lot of work, from photo shoots to web design & programming (thanks Omar and Sofia!)… but its always a pleasure to work with the talented Genny!
Take a minute to have a look at the site, and do a little shoping. You’d be supporting a local label, you’ll be supporting an effort in sustainability, and…  looking good! so, why not?

let us know what you think of the site!
