The pride of Dallas fashion designers, Abi Ferrin, has a pretty special Papa. Her father, Gene Ferrin, was a special guest at the 10th Annual OTF Players’ Wives Awards Banquet Show, titled “Women with Purpose.” Guests rubbed elbows with NFL stars of today and yesterday, while local celebs sashayed down the catwalk in Ferrin’s contemporary designs. With awards, live auctions, and a delicious brunch to be had, this Wyoming settler may have looked a bit different than the...

As recently as a year ago, you wouldn't have caught me dead in a dress, so for me to refer to a one as "magical" is a small miracle in and of itself.

I'm a tomboy, I played basketball from the age of 7 all the way through college, and I've spent the majority of my life in sweatpants, workout clothes, and my basketball uniform. Saying that I feel awkward and out of place in a dress is an understatement, but Abi Ferrin has changed all of that. Her signature 5-way dress is the stuff dreams are made...

 

The Abi Ferrin Brand is flying all the way to Atlanta, and back across the nation to Los Angeles. Nene Leakes, of The Real House Wives of Atlanta, wears a green Abi Ferrin signature 5-Way dress on the Ellen Show. National TV? We like the sound of that.

As long as there is a mandatory need for society to be clothed, there will be a high demand for fashion designers. Fortunately, Dallas has a fabulous designer all it’s own to clothe us in luxury and keep us stylish. If you’re wondering why there has recently been an influx of in-the-know women to Nordstrom at NorthPark Center, it’s primarily because Dallas designer Abi Ferrin has recently received some exciting news: the exclusive department store has picked up her fun, flirty...

The big game is happening this Sunday, and although our boys will not be playing at Jerry’s house, Dallas fashion designer, Abi Ferrin, will be.

On January 27, Stanley Korshak hosted the 10th Annual Off The Field Players' Wives Awards Banquet and Fashion Show and Media Reception showcasing new Abi Ferrin fashions.

“It’s our 10^th year, we probably have secretly been waiting for it to be in the Metroplex. [It’s] just awesome to have a local story, and have a local designer,...

I imagine this is how most of my conversations will go today:

So Laura, what did you do last night? 

Oh, you know. Went to a cocktail party with a high profile fashion designer and a Heisman Trophy winner. No biggie. Typical Thursday night.

The best part is: I’m not kidding.

In a few weeks, Dallas, and the massive edifice that is the new Cowboys Stadium, will be home to Super Bowl XLV, and consequently, floods of football fans and fashion fanatics.

Last night, the Azure in Uptown...

The career of fashion designer Abi Ferrin, 30, may appear an out-of-the gate success, with a 2003 young-girl-makes-good start in Hollywood, where she dressed the starlets, to beating the 2007 field in Stanley Korshak's Texas' Next Top Designer award, to showing at this year's New York Fashion Week and winning an ever-widening circle of acclaim and clients.

But that's only half the story: Ferrin's trajectory has been anything but seamless, and the designer is...

Celebrated fashion designer Abi Ferrin, 30, whose Los Angeles success was derailed by a bad relationship, tells how she left California in 2006 "with less than nothing, $50,000 in debt" - and made her comeback in Texas.
