Denver, CO — June  5, 2026 — Emerging fashion brand Naked Sewist is set to host its highly anticipated inaugural men’s fashion show on Friday, June 5, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM at Void Studios, located at 1790 S Bannock Street in Denver.

“Naked Sewist is about stripping fashion back to its essence—honest construction, intentional design, and personal identity for the contemporary man,” the brand shares. “This show is not just about clothing, but about the process, the maker, and the story each piece tells.”

Why Birdy Magazine Matters So Much to Denver’s Creative Community

There are some creative projects that become more than a publication, a platform, or an event. They become part of the cultural fabric of a city.

For me, Birdy Magazine is one of those things and they need our support! 

Jonny DeStefano, co-creator of Birdy alongside Krysti Joméi, has been a major force in my creative life since the mid-90s. Long before social media, before websites, before influencer culture and algorithms… there was Denver’s DIY creative scene. And it was electric.

Back then, I was the merch girl for Jonny and his brother Sam’s punk band. That season of life taught me some of the greatest lessons I’ve ever learned about grassroots marketing, community building, promotion, and what it means to truly believe in creativity.

This was before Instagram.
Before Facebook.
Before digital flyers and boosted posts.

We were hanging posters by hand, passing out flyers, talking to people face-to-face, building scenes through real human connection, late-night conversations, zines, music, art, and passion.

Jonny also helped get my own band, B.Sue, up and running. Looking back now, I realize how much those early experiences shaped not only my creative career, but also the heart behind Fashion Denver itself.

Denver Fashion Week 2026: A Week of Fashion That Spanned Genres

For one unforgettable week, Denver Fashion Week transformed the new venue, Furniture Row,  into a world of creativity, storytelling, community, and style.

See Bossi Rossi’s photos from the week here! Please note, more being added! 

From sustainable fashion to adaptive design, maximalism to streetwear, mommy-and-me moments to resort-ready swimwear, this season reminded us that fashion is never just about clothing. It’s about identity, artistry, innovation, culture, confidence, and connection.

And this year’s venue brought a whole new energy.

Guests stepped into immersive VIP experiences, explored local restaurant bites between runway shows, posed for red carpet photo opportunities, connected with designers and creatives, and experienced a fashion week that felt larger than life while still deeply rooted in community.

Throughout the week, guests also explored an incredible lineup of local pop-ups featuring artists, makers, boutiques, beauty brands, accessories, and creative businesses that brought even more personality and discovery to the experience. From statement pieces to handcrafted goods, the marketplace energy added another layer of connection between fashion lovers and Denver’s growing creative economy.

Each night was also guided by a dynamic mix of local emcees, community leaders, creatives, and movers-and-shakers who brought their own flavor, humor, energy, and perspective to the … Read more!

Denver Fashion Week Night 1: Sustainable Style Takes Center Stage

Denver Fashion Week kicked off in a brand new space this season—Furniture Row—and yes… surrounded by furniture (we loved it 😄). The expansive venue opened up into a playground of discovery, with pop-ups tucked into cozy corners, inviting guests to wander, explore, and uncover local gems along the way.

It felt less like a traditional fashion show and more like a curated experience—one where sustainability met community at every turn.

VIP guests were treated to a delicious spread  or small bites from Bezel,  Suerte, and Le French, offering everything from sweet bites to savory delights. A cash bar kept the cocktails and NA beverages flowing, adding to the relaxed, celebratory vibe of opening night.

And at the heart of it all, Denver Fashion Week continues to give back. This season’s beneficiary, Ardent Grove, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing low-cost and Medicaid mental health services, assessments, and community education—reminding us that fashion can be both expressive and impactful.

Hattitude 2026: A Celebration of Style, Storytelling & Purpose

There’s something magical that happens when fashion meets purpose—and Hattitude delivered that magic in the most dazzling way. 🎩✨

We had the opportunity to attend Hattitude, and we couldn’t have been more excited to step into an afternoon filled with fashion, creativity, and purpose.

The afternoon began with a lively social hour, where guests gathered to admire, celebrate, and of course show off their incredible hats. From whimsical fascinators to bold, sculptural statement pieces, the room was a living gallery of creativity and personal expression. Everywhere you turned, there was another look worthy of a double take (and maybe a photo or two!).

Alongside the fashion festivities, guests explored a thoughtfully curated silent auction featuring an array of exciting items—from fashion finds to golf packages to unforgettable experiences—all supporting a meaningful cause.

As the doors opened to the ballroom, guests were welcomed into an elegant setting for a delicious luncheon and an inspiring program. The energy shifted from playful to powerful as the program unfolded, featuring a stunning parade of hats, a moving video highlighting the importance of the Women’s Voices Fund, and a beautiful performance by husband-and-wife duo Adrienne Leigh Robinson & Marco Alberto Robinson who have graced many … Read more!
