I
am a designer, can I display my clothing at the Fashion
Denver showroom? If so, where can I start?
The
first step would be to schedule an appointment to show
us your designs. Our designers showcase on a monthly basis.
Designers pay a monthly fee to be showcased and are involved
in all of the PR, marketing, and fashion events that we
have in our showroom for the month that they are showcased.
This includes a private opening where local boutiques
are invited to come and meet the designers, potentially
picking up some new designers for their boutique as well
as a First Friday open house.

Can
I borrow or buy pieces in the showroom? What do the price
ranges look like?
Pieces
can not be borrowed unless they are part of a fashion
show and that is to be set up directly between the designer
and the organizer of the show or photoshoot.
We
have many pricepoints ranging from $10.00 to $300.00.
There is something for everybody at Fashion Denver!
