Fashion Week Starts Here

Join us for the MKE Fashion Week Kick-Off Social, an evening celebrating the designers, stylists, creatives, tastemakers, fashion lovers, and culture-shapers who make Milwaukee’s fashion scene what it is.

Come dressed in your flyest look and connect with the people behind the style. Whether you work in fashion, create behind the scenes, love a good look, or simply want to experience the energy of Milwaukee Fashion Week, you’re invited to be part of the celebration.


Enjoy tunes by Turtle Sooup, light appetizers while they last, cocktails available for purchase, and plenty of opportunities to mix, mingle, and make new connections as we count down to MKE Fashion Week, September 25 & 26.

You’ll also have an opportunity to learn more about Fashion Week and support the mission of the MKE Fashion Foundation.
