Braided Opulence – a fashion show by SWABY

Join fashion designer Shernett Swaby for an exclusive debut of her groundbreaking "Braided Opulence" Couture Collection at the SWABY Chicago Atelier in Wicker Park. This intimate gathering showcases a revolutionary collection that explores braiding as both a construction method and a cultural narrative, featuring hand-braided accents, woven silk panels, and architectural draping that celebrates the city's culture while embracing its bold architectural landscape. The evening includes a full runway presentation at 5 PM, a cocktail reception with gourmet hors d'oeuvres, and an exclusive gift valued at $100 for each attendee, plus the opportunity to commission custom pieces from the collection.
