Summer’s Last Splash, Fall’s First Layer

☀️🎒 Even though the temps are still toasty, there’s no denying that back-to-school energy is in the air. August always feels like that magical in-between—summer fun still going strong, but hints of fall just around the corner.

At Fashion Denver, we love this season because it’s all about layering and versatility. Think sundresses paired with light denim jackets, sandals swapped for sneakers, and breezy tops that transition easily once the sun sets. Students (and adults alike!) are pulling together outfits that balance comfort in the heat while nodding toward the cozier styles waiting for us in September.

This is also the time when Denver designers shine—creating looks that are functional, sustainable, and full of personality. From upcycled denim to statement accessories, our community knows how to make the “in-between season” fashion-forward.

So whether you’re shopping for new school-year staples, refreshing your work wardrobe, or just finding creative ways to remix your summer favorites, remember: fashion is all about expression, and this is the perfect season to play. 🍂👟👗… Read more!

The Roses Movie Screening at SIE Film Center: A Night of Fashion, Friends, and Film

When Fashion Blooms: A Rose-Inspired Night at The Roses

Last night was such a treat at the special screening of The Roses at the SIE Film Center! 🎬✨

Fashion and film are such natural partners—both tell stories, spark imagination, and let us see life from different angles. And when it comes to The Roses, the reimagined tale of love, ambition, and unraveling facades, there was no shortage of drama, style, and laughter.

The Roses team really outdid themselves with the goody bags! 🎁 Instead of a flimsy shopping tote, we were gifted a Land’s End tote bag—sturdy, stylish, and actually useful with deep pockets, a zipper closure, and the perfect everyday size. (I’m already using mine today!) Inside was such a thoughtful mix of treats: a beautifully decorated cookie, a sparkling little candle, a jar of spicy seafood seasoning (a playful nod to Olivia’s character as a chef at We’ve Got Crabs! 🦀), and of course, a single red rose to tie it all together. 🌹 It was the kind of bag you’ll keep and actually use—practical, fashionable, and full of charm.

🌹 Inspired by Roses (the Dress!)

In true Fashion Denver style, I leaned into the theme … Read more!

A Day in the Life of Fashion Denver, fashion camp

✨ Thank You for Making Fashion Camp Totally Awesome! ✨

What an unforgettable day we had at Fashion Camp—bursting with creativity, sparkle, and 80s flair! 💖✂️👗

From the moment the kiddos arrived, we could feel the buzz of excitement in the air. It was a day filled with crafting, styling, walking the runway, and letting imaginations run wild. Whether they were bedazzling, patching denim, or strutting their stuff, these campers absolutely shined.

But none of this magic would have been possible without YOU—our incredible community of parents, volunteers, and partners. So, let’s give a huge round of applause (and maybe a confetti toss 🎉) to:

🌟 Our Amazing Partners:

  • Tony at Fifty-Two 80’s
    Thank you for sharing your epic 80’s toy collection during show-and-tell! Even if the kids thought the Cabbage Patch Kid was a little creepy (LOL), your retro treasures sparked so much curiosity and fun conversation. You took us on a tubular trip down memory lane, and we loved every second!

  • Sarah the Sparkle Queen
    Your Fairy Hair station added pure MAGIC to the day! You brought the shimmer, the shine, and a whole lot of sparkle to our campers’ looks. ✨
