Kansas City Fashion Week Friday Show Fall 2017

Image
Friday night was the last show for us at Kansas City Fashion Week . The great thing about going to the fashion shows on Friday and Saturday nights is that you can really dress up for these two big shows. We got to see so many more local bloggers and even other media like Mix 93.3 . There were Kendra Scott swag bags lined up on every chair in the middle row of the European set up. As always, we had to get our picture taken on the Red Carpet and check out the Designer Presentation, which this night it was Judy Bales . I really like how Judy Bales brings her world of sculptural art and brings it into wearable art. 

Kansas City Fashion Week Thursday Show Fall 2017

Thursday's show for Kansas City Fashion Week was the second show of the week but our first. This Fall Show took place in the beautiful " The Grand Hall " located by Power & Light . When we arrived we got our seats and then headed to get a cocktail from KC Bier Co and Clear 10 Vodka , walking up the stairs to see the presentation designer RICH Apparels  and then getting our picture taken on the red carpet before we explored all of the booths. We saw the beautiful jewelry collection from Georgina Herrera who would be showing on Saturday night and Erin Paige who paired her jewelry with More Than Just Figleaves collection that evening. We got to speak with LEE Jeans and found out that they're more local than we thought. Lee Jeans is over in our sister State, Kansas, over in Merriam. They also were showing some of their new fall looks during the evening show. Thursday was also the night of raising money for Kansas City Fashion Council .

Kansas City Fashion Week Bubbly & Bowties Party

Bubbly & Bowties was a spectacular kick of party for  Kansas City Fashion Week . Everyone was dressed their best in cocktail and formal attire. It took place in one of my favorite parts of town,  Historic West Bottoms , at  r24 Studios . The great big "Kansas City Dreamin' "wall was the perfect backdrop for our photos that night. The vintage classic future pieces for sale at the  r24 Studios  set the tone for the part, making it as elegant as the dresses women were wearing. We got our bubbly on with champagne from  Cooper's Hawk ,  J. Rieger & Co  Whiskey, and  Clear 10 Vodka . Getting to mingle with fashion designers, models and bloggers that we didn't get to meet the night before, while snacking on sweet and savory items from  AUI Fine Foods  and  Delish Catering & Events .

KCFW Media Meet & Greet

Fall 2017 Fashion Week second day started with a Media Meet & Greet. It was held at the very well known  Fortuity in Kansas City, Missouri for their "Kansas City I'm So in Love" big Instagram selfie wall must. It was great to get to meet so many local bloggers and get to find out what their Fashion Week plans were.  The wine from KC Wine Works  was so good.  Lindsay who is their marketing and tasting rep was so nice and knowledgeable about the wine.  I can't wait now to go to KC Wine Works for a tasting! They had two of the designers display one outfit from their show.  Each one was so beautiful made, from Andrea Marie Long Designs  & Tiffany Brown Designs . These two ladies have been some of our favorite designers from past Kansas City Fashion Week shows, so it was a pleasure to get to see there work again.
