Happy Sunday everyone! As you all know, I spent my Saturday night at Fashion Week of Rochester (yes I actually had plans on a saturday night for once haha!) and I have to admit I was actually impressed with the show. Honestly, my expectations weren’t high because I’ve never really associated Rochester with fashion. When you walk outside, you never see anyone actually putting in effort with the way they look and there’s not much options when it comes to shopping. Boy was I wrong! I was shocked to see pretty ladies in LBD’s, Chanel bags, and Christian Louboutins! Where have all these people been hiding?! I can’t tell you how amazing it was to be around people who love fashion as much I do and I’m defiantly going to be attending again next year!
I decided to attend the last show which was called Fashion Underground and invited my best friend to come along with me because let’s face it, everything’s better with your best friend! The show was at the Midtown Tunnel which literally took an hour to find. Honestly, I think they could’ve done better with the location.
The show lasted about an hour and consisted of all fashion categories such as eveningwear, casual, menswear, swimsuit, and even wedding. The show’s description only mentioned eveningwear so I was defiantly surprised! All the outfits were from local designers and while it was nice to discover so many new talent, I just wasn’t “wow-ed” by anything.
Overall, I was impressed with the way they put so much effort into the show and really made it into a fun, glamorous event for all fashion lovers. More importantly, the revenue raised goes towards a local charity so who can complain with that? I’m defiantly going to be attending next year!
Until next time lovelies,
