About
This will be our 2nd Annual “The Other Paris Fashion Week” Fashion show! This event is intended to showcase original fashion/couture creations made by local designers. This event will be family friendly and all will be welcome to support and celebrate our diverse group of talented designers. This years show will be bigger and better than last year, and with our large indoor venue we can accommodate more designers, more models and more fun, no matter what the weather decides to do!
Fashion is such a HUGE part of our culture. It is influenced by our heritage, our surroundings and each person’s unique point of view. Bringing an event like this to our growing community helps to broaden our views and nurture our local talent!
Organizer
Kara Kalvapalle of KLK Paris and Prinx Lydia of Rebel & Royal
am a local designer and small business owner. I started my business, KLK Paris, in my home here in town back in June 2019. For 2 years I had a shop inside the Wincey Mills market, and became their events coordinator. I have years of experience in planning, hosting/facilitating, and executing various public events. I have teamed up with Prinx Lydia, owner and sewist/artist of Rebel & Royal. Lydia comes with a wealth of knowledge in fashion and large scale events, with an impressive career in the UK, and an already extensive resume of local events. Myself and Prinx Lydia teamed up to plan and execute our first Fashion Show last year, and are passionate about growing this annual event into something really special.
