Founders & Forces: Where Beauty, Brunch & Business Meet in Denver

Denver’s creative community is getting together for an afternoon where beauty, style, entrepreneurship and genuine connection all have a seat at the table.

On Saturday, October 17, Crowned Collective presents Founders & Forces: Beauty, Brunch & Business at Wonderyard in Denver, an intimate gathering created for women founders, entrepreneurs, creatives, professionals and aspiring business owners who are building what’s next.

And naturally, the fashion caught our attention. 💗

What happens when fashion gets off the runway and EVERYONE gets to be part of the show?

This Friday, August 28, Wardrobe Social V2 takes over Moodswing for a night where fashion, dance, live music, personal style, and Denver’s creative community all collide.

And we are HERE FOR IT!

Wardrobe Social isn’t your traditional fashion show where you grab a seat and watch the looks go by. This is a participatory night built around individual style, movement, music, and connection. Come dressed with intention, walk the red carpet, meet other Denver creatives, hit the dance floor, and become part of the energy yourself.

The night includes a Wardrobe Walk, live four-piece band, music by DJ Foxxy Kay, an eight-dancer All-Style Dance Battle judged by the crowd, an open dance cypher, red carpet interviews and photos, plus a Best Dressed moment.

Whether you’re a designer, model, dancer, photographer, stylist, artist, fashion lover, or simply someone who loves getting dressed up and experiencing something creative, you belong in the room.

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.

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!
