Colin Campbell

Colin Campbell Showroom — location of Vancouver Fashion Week, Fall 2009. This place was where I saw my first fashion show, so it had to be love! But this space was great. Tall ceilings, bars on the two levels. It was a bit on the small side but VFW is not big enough for that to be a problem… yet… Only problem I see with this space is this. Part of the upstairs had been turned into the backstage area for makeup and hair, and you had to go through here to get to the washroom, and the public had to use some port-​a-​potty set up outside. VIP’s included. Not good. This place usually has a different purpose though, it is a carpet showroom. They ship their carpets from Switzerland, which add a special wash to them after they are sent in from Nepal. Also, there wasn’t a coat check area. I loved the beautiful winding staircase though, and comfortable lounge area upstairs! Pictures attached!
