Christian Fashion Week returns for a second year on Sunday and Executive Director Jose Gomez is confident that the event will be even bigger and better than last year.
This year 17 designers and 70 models will showcase their talents in Tampa, Fla.; that’s twice as many from last year. Among the bevy of designers flown in from across the globe is Julia Chew, whose modest collection blew fashionistas away last year, drawing her comparisons to the likes of prominent high fashion labels including Sass & Bide.
“Christian fashion week is both a statement to the world, that there is a market for modest fashion, [and] an excuse for us to express ourselves as believers,” Gomez told The Christian Post exclusively, adding that the event shows “the world that art is part of our lives as [is] worship… its a celebration.”
The event kicks off on Sunday for an international day of prayer for art and fashion, then on Monday fashionistas will get a show preview via an Online Boutique. Guest speakers and stylists Tamy Lugo, Shari Braendel, and Wendi Braswell will host Tuesday’s Righteous Fashionista Workshop prior to Wednesday’s Divine Shopping Date– an all day shopping spree.
Finally on Thursday the Christian Fashion Week VIP Party will be held and all active local (Tampa) pastors and spouses invited to attend for free. Then on Friday and Saturday, the fashion shows will take place at Bayanihan Arts and Events Center.
