Pendleton Woolen Mills, a century-old Pacific Northwest company, has joined with Portland-based designers to create Pendleton, The Portland Collection.
This new label incorporates the vision of Mort Bishop, president of Pendleton, and a team of three designers ; Nathaniel Crissman, Rachel Turk and John Blasioli. They bring a “strong love of independent fashion as well as the spirit of Pendleton,” according to Nathaniel Crissman. “We looked to classic Pendleton fabrics as the foundation for the collection.”
