We’re getting ready for a very busy 2013 wedding season, but before we dive in next month, we have a great just-for-fun project we’ll be participating in for the second year. Last spring, we had the opportunity to orchestrate several fashion shoots in conjunction with the Fashion on the Shore event sponsored by Shore Magazine, The Southwest Michigan Tourist Council, Harbor Town Interiors, Bistro on the Boulevard and the Heritage Museum and Cultural Center. This Friday is the second annual Fashion on the Shore event which will showcase designs by emerging student designers from the fashion programs of a number of colleges throughout the midwest.
The May fashion event was followed by a gallery exhibit at the Box Factory for the Arts in August featuring photographs from our fashion shoots alongside some of the outfits modeled during the spring fashion show. We’ll have another post soon regarding our studio’s recent move into the Box Factory third floor. Some of the incredible models from the runway show also returned to model outfits from the show and some newer designs from some of the winning designers.
Both events were great to bring out local members of the arts and fashion community. The Box Factory opening also provided an opportunity for my five-year-old daughter to try out her runway skills. Perhaps she’ll be modeling in Fashion on the Shore show in 2025.
This Friday is the second annual Fashion on the Shore runway show. Doors will open at the Heritage Museum and Cultural Center in St. Joseph at 5:30 pm and the reception and show start at 6 EST. Tickets are $25 each with wine and hor d’oeuvres included. Please call the Heritage Museum for tickets at (269) 983-1191.
