Artist Appreciation Night Displays Local Styles

What is a fashion show without fashion? And how does fashion come about without innovative artists, fashion designers, buyers, sellers and everyone in between expressing their personalities through clothing? Simple answer: It doesn’t! Especially at the 2013 Fashion Week where local designers and boutiques are offered a platform for some serious publicity. For one night, March 11, the organizers and Melissa Arens of ArtAmiss and Mayapple Salon and Boutique transformed Arsaga’s at The Depot for a special event in honor of those important players, and what a night it was! See these designs and more at this year’s Fashion Week running through Saturday.
