Calling all fashion lovers!
Each year, Philly Fashion Week brings runway looks, big-name designers, activations and more to the City of Brotherly Love.
With our very own Love + Grit serving as a marketing partner, Philly Fashion Week returns for its 18th year from March 2-5, 2023 with three events in two venues: Fashion District Philadelphia and Live! Casino & Hotel.
Philly goes chic during Philly Fashion Week.
The annual fashion-forward celebration often features a number of design competitions and runway shows at locations throughout the city.
