Gainesville Fashion Week begins! FINALLY, we felt like this day would never come.
Wednesday's kick off event was a great start to what promises to be an amazing season; with some quirks, like our hot pink take on a red carpet to match this year's theme.
We filled the levels of Sharab Lounge with our team, sponsors, staff mates, interns, artists, models, photographers, videographers, papparazzi, guests, live artists and more!

Our exhibit was curated in a 360 degree unit. Guests were encourage to start left and make the full circle right around the room while being serenaded by John J Jordan.
Some highlights on the route included: noms noms - sushi du jour from Rolls N' Bowls, sweet treats from the Truffle Cake Co. and The Flying Biscuit Cafe and our LIVE art area happening outside.
Evan Poirier (seen above) and Hector Galvez wowed the crowd creating their pieces on the spot.
