Denver, CO Saturday October 24th
Last Saturday, Lynn (our graphic design intern and photographer) and I rolled up VIP to the Tivoli Student Union center for the Fashion/Culture 2.0 show. Sponsored by Metropolitan State University, El Salon, Tivoli Brewing, Reed Art & Imaging, and Shine Graphic Design, the evening entertainment featured a fashion show by El Salon, Charlie Price, Leon Designs, and Fancy Tiger, with a silent auction, cocktails, and music. The event was also a fundraiser to support colorado photographic arts center.
The show started by teasing the audience, with the models behind a screen only displaying their shadows. Next, everything went dark and nobody had any idea what was coming. That was my favorite thing about this show, I couldn’t predict or even try to image what or even where anything was coming from next! Each designer displayed unique yet very edgy styles all entering from different starting points, again something I also loved because it showed even more of the designers artistic style apart from the clothing.
Closing out the show, we got to see what I like to think of as futuristic, sassy, space-wear. For those that have seen Wall-e the Pixar movie, if the world ever comes to us living in space, I hope we don’t end up fat in motorized chairs because these outfits and styles perfectly embody exactly what I would want to wear on a spaceship.
BTW I was totally tripping out about this post because this show was truly spectacular and left me speechless! Check out some more media from the show and see for yourself here!
