This is the crescendo. 34 designers. More than 100 looks.
Memphis Art and Fashion Week ends the only way it can: on the runway. This finale is a full-scale fashion spectacle featuring headline designer Michael Ngo, where the city’s style community converges for one electrifying night. Join the tastemakers, retailers, creatives, and fashion lovers and fill the room as the lights drop and the first look hits the runway.
This rapid-fire showcase of established talent and rising voices turns the runway into a live performance and makes Fashion is Art feel undeniable.
VIP Experience (limited to 100) includes
Reserved dedicated parking
Private entrance, skip the line access
Priority runway seating
Curated goodie bags
Access to the VIP Lounge
Special VIP bar and cocktails
After the final walk, the celebration continues outdoors on the plaza with a DJ, food, drinks, and a glambot experience designed to capture your most fashion forward moment.
Every Runway ticket includes access to the Afterparty, where guests, models, makeup artists, and designers come together to connect and celebrate. Afterparty-only tickets include access to the party but do not include entry to the runway.
Claim your seat. Dress boldly. Celebrate Fashion is Art.
Memphis Art & Fashion Week is sponsored by Kimberly MacQueen and the Couture Collective. The Couture Collective is generously presented by Hemline Theory.
