Denver Fashion Week – Society – My Met Media

The Metrosphere team was thrilled to attend Denver Fashion Week’s Society night. Society night is a time to celebrate the interaction between society and fashion and these designers did not disappoint.

The event began with a thrilling musical performance by a rapper and Denver local, Sir Devon, who performed an entertaining set. With amazing beats and heavy audience interaction, Sir Devon kicked the night off right. 

Presenting a beguiling showing was designer, Tyne Hall. Their showing “Sanguinary,” meaning ‘bloodshed’ featured edgy fashions, unconventional neck and hemlines, and the beautiful contrast of black and red color. These pieces exuded femme fatale with dark gowns, skirts, and sets.

One model’s top snapped off while she was walking down the stage. She expertly saved it and remained holding it on herself the rest of the show. It was a brilliant reminder of how these models are able to adapt and overcome anything. This show was fierce and powerful, with beautifully contrasting colors and textures. 

In an ode to the Earth, KetiVani’s showing presented a sustainable small-batch line. From casual to formal, the show included many different fabrics and textures that beautifully mimicked natural shapes and textures in the world. 

Next to shimmer across the runway was the showing by S. Nicole by Shabeba. This showing was inspired by Latino/a/x culture. Including both traditional Spanish and Mexican styles from matador-esque designs, to Catholic iconography like crosses, and a beautifully bedazzled portrait of La Virgen de Guadalupe.

In a beautiful display of the importance of her family, designer Shabeba, alongside her two daughters, graced the runway. The three of them rocking S. Nicole by Shabeba fashions.

Seintana Couture’s dichromatic showing featured models in geometric black and white designs. The pieces ranged from streetwear to high fashion. Our favorite part was when designer Mitchelle Julie walked out in a grey ensemble, highlighting how her style is a blend of her creations. 

The Stitch Fitz wowed attendees in a  luxuriously feminine showing. Designer Lindsey Fitzgerald said her designs revolve “Around the Great Salt Lakes and the movement of the water.” 

This showing featured monochromatic designs highlighted by sparkles and lace. Fitzgerald walked out in a dress she designed. These bold statement pieces embodied high fashion.

In their showing, “Nightshift,” designer M. Bolden RMH set out to create a seamless transition from office siren vibes to night-out designs. Varying silhouettes, necklines, and fabrics presented unique and multifaceted designs which could easily shift from one environment to the next.

An amazing finale followed in Mio Mora‘s designs. This showing focused on traditional Indian wedding styles. Desi Weddings are known for their extravagance. This showing ended with a choreographed dance performance by the models, feeling like an upbeat and fun wedding reception, and left the audience beaming into the night.

Society night of DFW acts as a reflection of our society, a reflection of all that Denver has to offer in the fashion world. These pieces highlight the high fashions of Denverites, melding Denver culture with the diverse cultures of the world.
