BLOG #001: Check out my Fashion Flash article featured in the PlainDealer, 8/25/2010!

I was fortunate enough to be featured in the Plain Dealer's Fashion Flash section!  Finally, my bucket list dream of having an article written about me in a major newspaper has come true.

Check out my Fashion Flash article featured in the Plain Dealer (8/25/2010)!  It is a excellent interview article written by Plain Dealer's own Cleveland's fashion and pop culture queen, Andrea Simakis.  The print version has more pictures which I scanned and added for your viewing pleasure below.  More below the cut.  The full article can be read below or on cleveland.com here.
I even ended up making Andrea Simakis a customized version of the asymmetrical slash skirt I wore to the shoot, making her my first official customer to own a Lisa Malanij original. :]

Lisa Malanij, 24, Detroit Shoreway
Fashion designer

What have you been up to since graduating from Kent State University in 2009?

I'm a freelance fashion designer, and I'm also doing my own collection, which I showed for Cincinnati Fashion Week and Cleveland Fashion Week. The collection is called Circle.Square . . . I'm looking for investors!
