Vallarta Pride 2013 Fashion Show Presenters

BUENFLEX CLOTHING COMPANY

With the year round tropical weather of Puerto Vallarta, there was a need for shirts made from the finest of materials - soft, thin fabric that would breathe with you but at the same time make you feel your best.
Raul Duran has manufactured just this type of clothing for the past two years. His vision was to use the bright bold colors of Mexico to dress the men of the world. His T-Shirts and Tank Tops are known to keep you cool but make you feel hot. Reasonable prices were on Raul's mind from the start in 2011. Shorts were added this season that can be used at the beach, gym and around town. Buenflex is proud to promote Vallarta as a true Paradise and BuenFlex as THE Clothing for Paradise.

ALPHONSE SWIMWEAR

Alphonse introduced his line of uniquely styled swimsuits for men in 1998. Approaching his designs with the eye of an artisan, Alphonse incorporates the ability to mesh simplicity with style while acknowledging the comfort and confidence every man desires on the beach. Using the beauty of the male form with his innate knowledge, he constructs contemporary designer swimwear enhancing each man's natural attributes. Alphonse Swimwear's unique trademark logo not only identifies your swimwear as an original Alphonse design but also represents eternity, life's continuity and each individual's personal journey.

CASSANDRA SHAW JEWELRY

Cassandra Shaw Jewelry is a beautiful experience. To browse through the incredible selection of jaspers, agates and fossils amongst all the rainbow of colors of other stones from Mexico and all around the world is truly a treat. The shop's decor is tasteful and warm with the most unique men and women's jewelry in Puerto Vallarta. The majority of the jewelry is designed by Cassandra Shaw, who makes one-of-a-kind pieces. Contemporary, very bold and dramatic, Cassandra uses natural stones, carved antique treasures and sterling silver to create a look as individual as its wearer.

Other features of the boutique include an exclusive clothing line for women tailored and designed by Antonio Gradilla, who has been designing men and women's clothing in the Vallarta area for over 30 years. Cassandra's paintings add an extra burst of color throughout her store and many more paintings are displayed in an intimate gallery in the upper mezzanine. Cassandra Shaw Jewelry is "THE" store in Vallarta if you are looking for affordable and completely unique pieces, both in art and jewelry.

In support of the Vallarta Pride Fashion Show, a Facebook page has been created featuring an online contest for those who "join" the event. Cassandra Shaw has donated seventy $200 pesos gift certificates for the first 70 people who join and BuenFlex is offering a beach bag for the 100th person and a tank top for the 150th person to join.
