THE ANSWER IS AN EMPHATIC NO!!! FASHIONXT HAS NO AFFILIATION, NOR BUSINESS RIGHTS TO CALL ITSELF PORTLAND FASHION WEEK, NOR THE RIGHTS TO USE OUR TIME MAGAZINE ARTICLE ATTRIBUTING IT TO THE FASHIONXT ORGANIZATION. THOUGH THIS IS SEEMINGLY THE CASE. NEITHER IS PORTLAND FASHION WEEK RESPONSIBLE FOR DEBTS INCURRED BY FASHIONXT, OWNER PRANSENJIT TITO CHOWDHURY, NOR THEIR AFFILIATES. SADLY NOW, WE MUST USE THE UGLY AND NOT SO STYLISH HASHTAG #NOTFASHIONXT IN ATTEMPT TO FURTHER DISTANCE OURSELVES PUBLICLY.

PORTLAND FASHION WEEK IS THE 3RD LONGEST RUNNING FASHION WEEK SERIES IN THE UNITED STATES AND ONE OF THE OLDEST IN THE WORLD.

PORTLAND FASHION WEEK HAS BEEN ACTIVE SINCE 2002. THIS IS OUR 22ND ANNIVERSARY. ONLY LA AND NY FASHION WEEKS HAVE A LONGER RUNNING HISTORY IN THE USA AND NEITHER POSSESS OUR ENVIRONMENTAL ETHOS. NOR OUR HISTORY OR DEDICATION REGARDING ECOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL EFFORTS AND CONCERNS..
