The state of fashion in Northern Virginia

There’s no doubt that retailers understand the buying power here, which has caused a rapid growth of trendy and luxury megabrands in places like Tysons, Springfield Town Center and, most recently, the Mosaic District. The latter is especially important because it houses a standalone pop-up shop featuring two NoVA designers. “Without a doubt, two emerging designers that are bringing attention to Northern Virginia are Sophie Blake and Erika Schrieber with their gorgeous pop-up shop in the Mosaic District,” says Rosana Vollmerhausen, founder of DC Style Factory.
