BOSTON FASHION
WEEK |
|
Boston Fashion Week
was founded in 1995. The force behind the week has been dedicated to
creating opportunities that increase the viability and visibility of the
local industry. The series of fashion related events throughout Greater
Boston and beyond serves as a platform for both established industry
professionals and aspiring newcomers to showcase their work as well as
network with peers and the public.
This annual
celebration of Boston style featuring a great wealth of local talent, is
unique in that it is designed to engage the community directly, at the
grassroots level -- cultivating fashion as an integral part of the
Boston lifestyle.
Accessibility and
diversity in programming allow the public to engage the week on many
levels; experiencing a show, taking in an exhibit, participating in an
educational program or joining in the festivities at a party.
The week also
contributes to a sense of civic pride about what the region has to offer
and how it continues to evolve.
You’re invited to
become an active participant in the local fashion community by
supporting local style makers during Boston Fashion Week and throughout
the rest of the year!
