On Saturday, September 10th, 2022, the Jane Austen Collection by Jennyvi debuted during New York Fashion Week. While creating the collection, the question that plagued my mind was, does it spark Jane? I designed each print with the Jane Austen Silhouette and each gown with a character in mind.

After the print dresses came out, my collection's evening and bridal portion started with the Jane Austen 2.0 gown. I sewed the gowns thinking about how to modernize Jane's look, so I did an iridescent collar, which is also depicted in the print silhouette I designed for the ready-to-wear dresses that started the show.

This Saturday, September 10th, at noon, I will debut my collection inspired by Jane Austen during New York Fashion Week. I still have about 4 VIP seats valued at $75 each and 10 General Admission seats valued at $60 available for free. Just email me at jennyvi@jennyvinewyork.com before Thursday evening to get on the guest list. First come, first served.
