Midwest Fashion Week

Expanding its horizons internationally, Midwest Fashion Week makes its debut in the style capital of the world. Event founder Berny Martin considers the benefits of a new venue and what it means for the future of the Midwestern fashion scene.

Pinstripes, pencil skirts, and the world’s easiest updo—what we saw on the runways.

Says @PowellDan, “I’m ready for the summer vortex!” And @magtastic adds, “Maybe a little premature for tanks and short shorts, ladies.”

Florals, leather, and layers—here’s what designers are deeming in right now.

Runway shows start tonight for Midwest Fashion Week, which showcases the 2014 fall/winter collections of 14 regional, national, and international designers.
