Our Designers have benefited from the experience, sales, industry connections, and media exposure we have provided to them. Every year, our design students have benefited from real-world experience in a large-scale runway show. We believe in transparency, and never skew numbers – our first year, we started with about 450 people in attendance and have maintained that number for the past three years. As a fashion week, our focus remains less on “selling tickets” and more on getting valuable industry connections to our designers. 2014 brought connections from Los Angeles, where Orlando Dugi of Dugi Fashions was invited to be a part of Style Fashion Week for 2015. One of our models, Rahil, went on to become one of “America’s It Girls”. Every year, designers get featured in magazines, newspapers, and online publications as well as have appearances on radio shows. Our website has an average of 3,500 *unique* visitors a month (and climbing) all year long, and each designer receives their own page promoting them and their brand until the following Fashion Week.
