Founded by Victoria M. Ng in Feb, 2019 and operated by Chicago Asian Women Empowerment, a 501c3 non-profit.
Chicago is a growing fashion hub and we want to showcase Asian designers and models. We believe that fashion is universal and Asians can be even more successful in this field if there is unity and a platform.
We were on hiatus because of the pandemic, but this year we are back! This year, they're showing up with 14 AAPI designers. Their pieces will range from runway couture dresses to streetwear. We represent not only via our designers - our 40 AAPI models embody the diversity in our community, ranging in AAPI ethnicity, skin tone, body type, height, and of course, personal style.
Tickets include a general admission seat (not assigned, first come first serve), and drinks from a non-alcoholic 'open bar' (not ticketed, we will pass out drinks until there is no more left).
