Frock Shop event fuses high fashion with low prices

Katie Gartner’s brainchild is back: Frock Shop allows Denver fashionistas to explore local fashions at discounted prices, all at one central location.

Saturday and Sunday, April 20^th and 21^st, CSU Apparel and Merchandising graduate Katie Gartner’s company, Frock Shop, will return to Fashion Denver’s headquarters at 1070 Bannock Street for a spring sample sale. “Frock Shop is an exciting opportunity for Denver’s independent boutiques and designers to be able to offer high style at a fraction of the price.
