Fresh, white snowflakes danced to the ground outside of Denver’s historical McNichols Building, perfectly preluding to the event inside. As guests entered the runway room, adorned with white banners and subtle chic lighting, they were greeted with a unique cocktail from a fashionably dressed server or a friendly smile from one of their fellow fashion-enthusiasts. Local shops, fashion boutiques and restaurants sold apparel and offered delicious samples of sweet treats and snacks to anticipating guests. All were gathered for the same reason, to celebrate local designers at Westword’s second annual Whiteout Fashion Show.

The Perfect Night for a Whiteout

The Fashion Denver Pre-Party at the Fashion Denver Headquarters

On Thursday night my fellow Denverlites and I did what we do best and braved the snow in the name of fashion. It was a complete whiteout outside, making a perfect platform for the whiteout that would ensue inside of the McNichols Building.

Our night started just as any good night should – with a toast of champagne and good company.  The second annual Westword Whiteout benefitted the American Transplant Foundation and was not only a chance for us to support the incredible Denver fashion scene, but it was also a time for us to celebrate our very own Brandi Shigley whose designs would be featured in the fashion show.  Cheers to that!

IMG_0524We arrived at the McNichols Building with snowflake accessories in our hair from the winter wonderland that was outside.  The doors opened to a bustling scene of well-dressed attendees, specialty cocktails, delicious bites, and bumping music. We socialized with designers, chatted with stylists, snapped a few pictures and scoped out the elite fashion as we walked through the posh event.IMG_0353

 

 

Once it was nearing 9 pm we made our way to our seats and eagerly waited for the start of the fashion show.  I have … Read more!
