Introducing Votour.com

During Fashion Week last month I met a very nice young artist named John Haro. In addition to being a painter, John is a fashion blogger who, along with his partners, has started a new fashion site: Votour.com.

Votour gets its name from the words vogue + couture + tour. John describes the site as a place "to nurture & inspire the creative minds, whose interests lie in the fashion industry, be it design, photography, makeup artistry, or styling, amongst others. We hope to stir the imagination, and pillar a new generation of raw talent that we feel the industry is in dire need of now."

The site launched last week with a "self-expression" feature. Right now, anyone who signs up can post pictures of his or herself wearing what they consider to be their best examples of self-expression. Other features are in the works as well. Sound interesting? Sign up and join the fun!
