St. Louis Fashion Week returns sorta
You can put the five-day fashion event back on your social calendar, but you will notice some changes from seasons past.A Reported By Pakistan Times.
This year's event takes place September 7-11, but rather than being rooted in one location (such as the previous home at Lumière Place Casino & Hotel) the happenings will take place in a different spot each night.
So far, there's been no celebrity hosting announcement, no news of exotic collections from out of town designers and no news of after parties, but we're hopeful. Check out the gallery of images past, including the runway and party pics) attached on the left.
The focus this season will be on St. Louis' top fashion retail outlets, in particular, Saks Fifth Avenue, Macy's at the Galleria and Plaza Frontenac. Fashion shows will take place in each of these venues.
But that means the focus of the week will be different and likely more staid than previous seasons. The clothing and styling will likely be more corporate and committee approved than a designer vision.
But did someone say "complimentary cocktail hour"? Yes, yes they did. The fashion faithful will get happy hour and socializing opportunities as well as opportunities to shop the collections early and perhaps with discounts.
