Musical performers will include Dana Monique, singer, songwriter, and The Voice Season 20 Top 17 Finalist; Devan Blake Jones, recording artist and American Idol Season 12 finalist; and Marlen Nahhas, opera singer and actress who has performed at the Metropolitan Opera, Kennedy Center, San Francisco Opera and more.
Owens will showcase collections of her own, as well as feature other established designers and stores. Guest designers and stores invited to have their own runway segments include bridal designer D’Lola Couture, leather and fur designer Andreas Tsagas, and womenswear designer Alejandro Gaeta. The show will also include hats by The Cow Lot, and fashions from Blue Ruby Boutique. Nationally acclaimed brands Kendra Scott, Scotch & Soda, and State & Liberty will also be showcased. The event will be emceed by Brandi Shigley, Founder of Fashion Denver; and Entrepreneur, Futurist and Activist Chris Ward.
