Fashion Denver was thrilled to attend the electrifying DENVER ARTS & VENUES CULTURAL RUNWAY SERIES: CLICK, CLACK, SQUEAK fashion show, held behind the stage at the iconic Temple Buell Theatre. This unique setting provided a mesmerizing backdrop, offering a rare glimpse of the massive auditorium’s empty seats and grand stage from a whole new perspective!

The show itself was a feast for the eyes and a celebration of diverse footwear. Upon arrival, each guest was delighted to find a pair of chic sunglasses from Tami Smith of Eye Paparazzi, waiting at their seats – a stylish gift that added a fun, fashionable touch to the evening. The runway featured an eclectic mix of high-end shoe brands, personal collections, and stunning custom designs. From dazzling sneakers and towering heels to elegant cowboy boots, the variety was truly astounding.
