Purveyors of the hip and fabulous beware: Brooklyn’s Fashion Week(end) is coming to town.
Presented by the BK Style Foundation, this year’s festivities in DUMBO will premiere fashions from local and international designers, like Nana Boateng and Sena. This year marks the second installment of the event, where new and fresh designers are showcased, eschewing the same old names that fill the tents at Bryant Park.
The goal of the nonprofit BK Style Foundation is to expose the talent of the borough’s hottest designers. Indeed, Brooklyn’s color, from Greenpoint to Red Hook, definitely comes through in each collection.
Tickets are available by the night, and purchasing one gets you membership in the BK Style Council. Fifty dollars might seem a bit steep, but last year’s shows brought Busta Rhymes’ Flipmode Squad and Mya to the runway, so you never know who might show up.
“BK Fashion Week(end)” will take place from March 16-18 at various locations. Tickets for each night are $50. For information, go to www.bkfashionweekend....
