Fleurish: A Sustainable Fashion Event (and Ijams fundraiser!) is back! This incredible eco-friendly and sustainable runway show is returning to Ijams on June 8 from 6-9 pm!
Fleurish is a collaborative runway show showcasing how sustainability, conservation, and beauty intertwine with our lives and our future. Local designers join forces with local hair and makeup artists to create amazing designs that incorporate sustainable materials, innovative recycling methods, and reusing what was once discarded trash.
This year's event will feature over 20 designers and 80+ models on the runway to bring light to the art of eco-conscious fashion with the theme of Celestial Threads.
Fleurish engages the audience in ways we, the average consumers, can make changes to our day-to-day lives while never losing sight of the beauty of nature and the human experience. Guests are encouraged to dress the part and create an outfit with sustainability in mind including creating looks from what you already have, borrowing an outfit instead of buying, thrifting, etc.
The cocktail portion of the event will run from 6-7:30 pm, where guests will enjoy some signature cocktails and passed appetizers from Potchke Deli as you check out the Green Carpet for a photo op, our education stations, or learn about conservation efforts in the fashion realm. Then, at 7:30 pm, it is time to see what imagination can do with reusable, recycled materials as the models take the runway to show off the looks that our amazing local designers have created! After the show, rub elbows with the artists and designers on the hillside.
