The Journey

The Journey is an immersive runway experience inspired by The Wiz, using fashion and storytelling to explore the different chapters we experience throughout life. Featuring emerging designers and creative talent from Chicago and across the Midwest, each collection represents a new chapter, a new perspective, and a new step forward. Designers include House of M Bissine, HeavensChild, Noteworthy, Kreativeli, Livi Lane, and Gaea-Mae to name a few.

More than a fashion show, The Journey invites you to experience the stories behind the vision, the artistry behind the designs, and the creativity that shapes what comes next. And as you enter this experience, we invite you to express your own story through fashion. Come dressed in your most elevated look, your boldest expression, and the style that represents your own journey. This is your opportunity to be seen, celebrated, and inspired. Your journey is still unfolding. Join us as we discover where it leads.
