Runway Shows & Fashion Bazaar
The number one question that everyone has been asking is - “How do I get tickets to the runway shows?”
The runway shows are invite-only industry events for media, buyers, and influencers, as the main goal of NOLAFW is to generate exposure for Southern-born or based designers. However, anyone can come to the Fashion Bazaar at the Ogden Museum on Friday and Saturday. One hour after each runway show, we will have a video presentation of the show for public viewing! Plus, shop the pop-up boutiques of many of the designers, along with other local vendors.
Now, this next part is just for those of you IN the KNOW - as promised, we always give you great insider tips… once all guests have been seated for each runway show, if there are any seats or standing room available, the staff will offer it to guests at the Fashion Bazaar.
Thank you all for your support of not just us, but of the Southern Fashion Industry! We can’t wait to see you… and what you’re wearing!
