The Bellevue Collection, the Pacific Northwest’s premier style event, will host its 19th annual Fashion Week on October 4-5. This high-energy celebration of fashion will feature two iconic runway shows highlighting the latest seasonal trends, aiming to inspire attendees to discover their unique styles. The event, which also includes beauty and fitness activities, interactive experiences, and shopping, will donate 100% of ticket sales to two local nonprofits. Tickets go on sale August 8 at fashionweekbellevue.com and are expected to sell out quickly.
“This year’s shows are inspired by iconic fashion destinations around the world and meant to celebrate the glamour and adventure of travel and style,” said Jennifer Leavitt, Vice President of Marketing for The Bellevue Collection. “We invite our guests to explore new styles and find their own fashion inspiration from the runway, all while supporting local nonprofits.”
