17 Days of Fashion in Philly!
I’d be comfortable in saying that Philly is a fashionable city, a mix of this and that. There’s a mix of people who dress for comfort and are ok with just being…basic, those that like to be daring and bold giving distinctive personality to their attire, and ones who fall flat to fads. Philly has recently been booming with events specific to fashion, such as modeling competitions, fashion shows for a cause, and various other functions that allow those who live for fashion, to enjoy. The “17 Days of Fashion” was created by the founding members of The Philadelphia Fashion Consortium, with the purpose of celebrating Philadelphia’s growing fashion industry.
Over the course of 17 days, “17 Days of Fashion” will promote over 21 fashion shows and events, produced by Philadelphia’s local fashion designers, models, industry professionals, rising entrepreneurs, and those who just love fashion! Their mission is to create unity and create a place for all of these pieces of the puzzle to come together and to potentially build this series of events into what will be sought after not only by locals, but people world wide.
The 17 days of Fashion has a mission and a pledge that reads, ”We pledge our support to those participating in the17… Days of Fashion by providing resources, marketing and advertising support with an opportunity to highlight their expertise.”.The participation and support of Philadelphians and those in surrounding cities can work together to make this event bigger and better with each year’s passing. I am looking so forward to attending some of these events, as I frequently attend events in NY which is a little ways away, and it’s great to be able to be in my own backyard and experience great fashion and passion from those who love it just as much as I do!
