"I'm still doing my own bags," she continues, "but the workshops and helping others get started is slowly taking off, and I'm having less time to do my own bags. But that's inspiring to me, because I'm able to utilize more of the business aspect of the fashion end, which is what really makes me excited. I mean, it's good to have great designers, but it's even better to have great, successful designers."

Hear, hear.

We're expecting terrific things from Shigley and her Fashion Denver (www.fashiondenver.com). There's been talk of a Denver Fashion Week filled with local designers, and she's just the person to get that off the ground. We see numerous designers just starting out, and we know that she's the MasterMind who can help them go from a line of simple screen-printed Ts to a full-fledged business. Of all the fabulous designers in this city, Shigley's just the one to make Denver more than a Giant Ball of String stopover on the fashion map.

"Designs for women who kick ass." That's Shigley's motto, and that's what she does.
