Opening and closing events for Dallas International Fashion Week, along with daily celebritystudded after-parties and charity-fundraiser trunk shows will be held at various partner retail locations throughout Dallas.
“We are extremely excited to be a partner in bringing the Dallas International Fashion Week to life this year, and are thrilled to be launching it in conjunction with the 50th Anniversary of the Dallas Market Center,” explains Bill Winsor, President and CEO of Dallas Market Center.
“This event allows participation for the public to participate directly in the drama and energy of fashon markets in Dallas.” Executive Producer and Managing Partner at LIVEstyle Entertainment, David Manning, adds, “We've been in planning for the launch of the DIFW for nearly two years and are excited to deliver a program that we anticipate will deliver commercial success for our participating designers and the regional marketplace, as well as bring the sizzle and entertainment value of the top designer runway shows to the #2 fashion apparel market in the country.”
Mr. Manning adds,“the growth in fashion as an entertainment medium is at its height and we believe Dallas is ready for such a program given the growing market and introduction of other signature fashion events popping up in the market place this year.”
Designers who have recently made a personal appearance at Dallas Market Center to support a collection include: The Missoni family, Diane von Furstenberg, the House of Emilio Pucci, the Salvatore Ferragamo family, Carolina Herrera, Todd Oldham, Richard Tyler, Isaac Mizrahi, Derek Lam, Narciso Rodriguez, Nicole Miller, and many others.
A comprehensive promotion and advertising campaign for Dallas International Fashion Week is scheduled for late Spring, and additional details to be announced at a later date.
