Runway Shines: Visual Look at Day One of the 10th Annual Charleston Fashion Week
Last evening, amongst the tents and lights and models, Marion Square converted into a mini mecca of the fashion industry with the kick off of the 10th annual Charleston Fashion Week. With a week of events guaranteed to outshine previous years from March 15-19, fans, designers, models, make up artists, musicians, dancers and even a hedgehog are in for a week of incredible memories and a future of great fashion talents.
Day one introduced the audience to emerging designers Destani Hoffman, JD Noble, Storm Dorris and Elias Gurrola who each brought a unique flavor to the runway. Donning from Alabama, Georgia and New York, this years emerging designers have stretched the limits of the East Coast.
The evening festivities sparkled with local business showcases from Bits of Lace Fine Lingerie, Shoes on King, Taxidermy, tres Carmen Boutique and 7Gypsy. With show stopping musical choreography from ritual chant to the iconic Whitney Houston, the first evening was deemed a tremendous success.
