Fashion In Detroit

Joe Faris Of 'Project Runway' To Makeover Motor City With 'Fashion In Detroit'

America's car manufacturing headquarters of Detroit, Michigan, with all its industrial largess, is outwardly the last place fashion would thrive. As quite the testament to the adaptability of its economy and people, Motor City will become the site of Fashion In Detroit fete. The brainchild of Project Runway alum and Southfield native Joe Faris, the high-style parade will be held in the city of Detroit. On his purpose for organizing the spectacle, Faris comments, "This event is to put a fashion spotlight on Detroit and create a venue that fills the needs of many locally based designers and the Detroit fashion community." Fashion In Detroit will showcase 10 to 12 separate collections worn by top modeling talent on a 60-foot runway. A VIP reception for the top names in fashion and entertainment, an Afterglow rock concert and a "Made in Michigan" anthology will be packed into the one day affair. July 27, 2009
